Kylian Mbappé achieved a significant milestone by becoming France's all-time leading scorer, netting his 58th goal during a 3-1 victory against Senegal at MetLife Stadium in New Jersey on Tuesday night. At just 27 years old, he surpassed Olivier Giroud's previous record of 57 goals.

Mbappé scored two goals in the match, bringing him closer to Miroslav Klose's World Cup record of 16 goals, as he now stands at 14. The match also featured a goal from substitute Bradley Barcola, contributing to France's success in the 2026 FIFA World Cup group clash.
