The Argentine ace and the French superstar were right in the middle of this massive game, and make it to the record books with a great performance this evening.

It was written on the stars that Lionel Messi and Kylian Mbappé were going to give fans a great FIFA World Cup final, and none of them disappointed with their performance this evening.

The Argentine ace was key to Argentina's run in the competition, being the leader everyone wanted him to be for La Albiceleste, scoring seven goals and stepping up for the South Americans when they needed it the most.

Meanwhile, Mbappé carried France's weight for almost the entire tournament, and his presence in the final was capped with an impressive hat-trick during the title clash, which had him level Geoff Hurst as the only men in history to score three goals in a single FIFA World Cup final.

The goals scored by these footballers saw them share a World Cup record which will be hard to level...or surpass.
