The footballer had been mute for the better part of the game and made a massive irruption with two key strikes that leveled the game.

Argentina seemed to have everything under control with less than 20 minutes to be played in the FIFA World Cup final...but then, along came Kylian Mbappé.

The PSG ace was being criticized by fans and experts for his poor influence during the game. Nevertheless, the footballer stepped up when his team needed him the most to score a quick brace to level the clash.

The first goal for the French star came thanks to a penalty, which was as dubious as the one called for Argentina in the first half, but Donatello did not hesitate to put it past Emiliano Martínez (Image might be geo-restricted).

Then, before Argentina could digest that goal, Mbappé stunned the world -and La Albiceleste- with a right-footed volley to level the game (Image might be geo-restricted).

With those goals, Mbappé was able to join an elite list of goalscorers to find the back of the net twice in a World Cup final. A list that includes Pelé, Zidane, and even Ronaldo, the man that had done it more recently.
