The defending champions live up to their name as France are the first team to qualify for the knockout stage in Qatar.

After a shock defeat, Argentina kept their hopes alive as they returned to winning ways by defeating Mexico 2-0. A special day for Polish striker Robert Lewandowski, who scored his first goal in the World Cup finals, as a energetic Australian team beat Tunisia 1-0.

Kylian Mbappe scored two goals and put defending champion France into the knockout stage of the World Cup with a 2-1 win over Denmark on Saturday.

Mbappe gave his team the lead in the 61st minute and then scored the winner in the 86th with his right thigh as Les Bleus became the first team to advance to the round of 16.

The France forward swapped passes with Theo Hernandez down the left flank and poked the ball past Denmark goalkeeper Kasper Schmeichel for the first goal. He then jumped acrobatically to guide in the second after a cross from Antoine Griezmann.
