Author of a hat-trick against Argentina (3-3, 4-2 on pens) in the final of the 2022 World Cup, Kylian Mbappé delivered one of the greatest performances in the history of the competition this Sunday. . This Monday morning, the Parisian striker spoke on his Twitter account.
If Lionel Messi may have proven himself to be the best player in the history of football, Kylian Mbappé has also left his mark on the legend of this sport. Very few strikers can claim to have scored three goals in a World Cup final. Before the native of Bondy, only the British Geoff Hurst had achieved the same feat during the 1966 World Cup.
At only 23 years old, the star of the Parc des Princes has already scored 12 goals in a World Cup final phase. Barring disaster, the latter should overtake the current top scorer in the history of the tournament, Miroslav Klose and his 16 goals. In the meantime, the former Monegasque will have to recover from a disappointment that we imagine to be immense. But Kylian Mbappé is not the type to be defeated by failures. After his missed shot on goal during Euro 2021 against Switzerland, the 2018 World Champion had quickly regained his best level.
“We will return”
A few hours after the final, the current top scorer in Ligue 1 also displayed a combative and revengeful state of mind on his Twitter account. “We will return”was thus content to write the young prodigy.
We will return.

While waiting for 2026 and the World Cup in the United States, Kylian Mbappé will have to achieve another huge challenge: that of winning the Champions League with Paris Saint-Germain.
