Mbappe is full of confidence and he has got everything in his game.
There were a fair few unhappy responses to French champions PSG celebrating a goal against Les Bleus...

Whenever you get to see Lionel Messi play, it is such a privilege. He has been such a wonderful player and you do feel for him because of what he's given to the game.
But will we ever seen him play for Argentina again?

The French defence handled Messi really well. He played in that false nine position but Argentina didn't get him involved enough.
I actually thought Mbappe scored three goals. He was such a threat down the right-hand side. There is a new kid in town and that is Kylian Mbappe.

Lionel Messi didn't score but he had a role in two of their goals. The rest of the team has to show up.

Guillem Balague
Spanish football journalist on BBC Radio 5 live
It was the goals, the individual performance of the tournament so far. We saw Mbappe who is on the way to becoming, along with Neymar, ahead of Messi and Ronaldo.
His performance was extraordinary but on the other hand it is the sadness of seeing Messi go home, perhaps the greatest player ever. He knew he couldn't do much with this side.
He knew he couldn't do it all on his own. Argentina have been all about heart and complete disorganisation. France put a gear up and the best team won.

Former Germany head coach on BBC One
France were superior in all areas and Argentina never managed to find Messi. He was isolated in the first half, and in the second half, he hardly had a touch.

It was magnificent game of football with two teams going end to end. Mbappe has blistering pace, goals and aggression. He has the lot.
Argentina are the first side to score three goals in a World Cup match and lose since the USSR against Belgium in 1986.

Kylian Mbappe is saying, 'I'm the new kid on the block.' He was absolutely brilliant for France. What a game.
That opportunity at the death... What a cracking game! I lost count of who scored what. France were the better team and deserved to win, but what a game!
Image source, ReutersDo we have new favourites for the World Cup? I think so.
France were brilliant and Kylian Mbappe was even better.

It comes down to Messi's desire to carry on. I'm sure in four years time he'll still be playing top level football if he wants to.
The camera pans on Lionel Messi, who just stands still with no real expression on his face staring into the abyss.
I hope this World Cup never ends.

It's all over. Breathless.

They did have one last chance but a cross is turned wide.
