The Top Scorer in Qatar
At every World Cup, the player who finishes with the most goals across the tournament is given the Golden Boot. At the 2022 World Cup in Qatar, that award went to Kylian Mbappé of France. He scored 8 goals over the seven matches France played in the tournament, more than any other player on the field. By the time the tournament ended he had also confirmed his status as one of the most lethal finishers in the modern game.
A Hat-Trick in the Final
The most extraordinary night of Mbappé's 2022 tournament was the final itself, against Argentina at the Lusail Stadium. Argentina led 2–0 well into the second half, and France looked beaten. Mbappé pulled a goal back with a penalty, scored again moments later to level the match, then scored once more in extra time when Argentina had retaken the lead. Three goals in a World Cup final is exceptionally rare. Despite that, France lost the match on penalties.
The Race for the Boot
The Golden Boot race in 2022 was tight. Lionel Messi finished the tournament second on the scoring list with 7 goals — only one behind Mbappé. The two players were on the same pitch in the final, both scoring twice in regulation and extra time. In the end, Mbappé's hat-trick edged him clear in the boot race even though the trophy itself went to Argentina. The 2022 Golden Boot was effectively decided in the very last match of the tournament.
