In the early morning of the 27th, the Qatar World Cup Group D "qualifying battle", the French team relied on Mbappe's 2 goals, 2:1 strong opponent of Denmark, breaking the curse of the last three World Cup defending champions can not qualify, becoming the first team to enter the round of 16 this World Cup. And Mbappe is also at the top of the top scorer list with Ecuador's Valencia. Compared with the fledgling World Cup in Russia 4 years ago, Mbappe is now the most indispensable "trump card" in the French team: there are strong breakthroughs, receivers, and grab points, and his upgrade and transformation from "functional" to "all-round" has forged the most powerful "breaking point" in the French team.
The 974 Stadium, made of stacked containers, stands on the bay as the sun sets and the lights are lit up as night falls.
On the evening of the 26th, the focus of the second round of Group D of the Qatar World Cup group stage was staged here, and Mbappe scored two goals to help France beat Denmark 2-1 and become the first team to advance to the round of 16. In the last three World Cups, all the defending champions have broken the group stage, and France's Kylian Mbappe broke the curse.
After scoring his second goal, Mbappe's World Cup tally reached seven goals in nine games and rose to 31st place in the World Cup's all-time top scorer list, tied with the likes of Messi and Suarez. But just two hours later, Messi scored a deadlock for Argentina in the subsequent match against Mexico, increasing his World Cup tally to eight.
However, Mbappe's rise to the top scorer list is as impressive as his speed on the pitch. You know, he just scored his first goal in the World Cup in Russia four years ago.
At present, in the World Cup all-time goal list, Germany's legendary goalscorer Klose tops the list with 16 goals, playing 24 games in four World Cups, averaging 0.67 goals per game. Is it possible for Mbappe to surpass Klose's record? Based on his efficiency of 7 goals in 9 games, averaging 0.78 goals per game, 13 more games are needed. The question is, can he maintain such efficiency?
Of course, the ceiling of Mbappe's World Cup goals depends not only on himself, but also on the overall performance of the French team. Klose was able to break the record thanks to Germany's consistent performance from 2002 to 2014, with Klose scoring 16 goals in four World Cups with four World Cups. If France reach the final at both this World Cup and the next, Mbappe may be able to surpass Klose as the top scorer in World Cup history. Mbappe will be 27 years old by then, and even by the 2030 World Cup, the 31-year-old will have a chance to continue to set his own record. Considering that the 2026 World Cup will be expanded to 48 teams, the gap in the group stage may widen, and it will theoretically be easier to score goals.
Therefore, whether you want to admit it or not, the final dance of Messi and Ronaldo at the World Cup in Qatar may be the hot performance that the curtain of the Mbappe era is about to open.
Some people will say that Mbappe will never be able to compare with superstars such as Maradona, Ronaldo, and even Ronaldo who shine with the "light of the savior", and its "one-trick" breakthrough, although amazing, is still slightly inferior to Messi's football aesthetic.
However, the era of individual heroism in football is a thing of the past, and the higher the level of competition, the more emphasis is placed on wholeness and precision. In the football field of the future, there may no longer be such individual heroism. And Mbappe may be the face of a new era.
Of course, Mbappe, 23, seemed to have a smooth career before. However, the wind knows the grass and faces extreme pressure to test the true character of a star. For the future Mbappe, he must bravely throw away the protective cocoon of a rising star in order to transform into the spiritual leader of the "Gallic Rooster", alongside predecessors such as Platini and Zidane.
World Cup in Qatar, will we see it happen? How will it happen? We don't know anything about that, and that's the beauty of football.
It is late at night, and when the sea breeze gently blows through the 974 Stadium, which has returned to silence, and the residual moon of the hook disappears on the horizon, one era is coming to an end, and another era is quietly opening. According to Xinhua News Agency

Mbappe is faster than Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo
Speed has always been one of the most sought-after physical qualities of players, and in world football, many high-performing players have very fast speed. Recently, the French media "Le Figaro" counted the ten fastest players in world football, of which French striker Mbappe ranked first with a speed of 36 kilometers per hour, it is worth noting that Messi and Ronaldo were not selected in the top ten (the second place began to be Inaki Williams, Aubameyang, Bellalabi, Walker, Sane, Salah, Koeman, Odriosola, Nacho).
According to the report, Mbappe's speed can reach an average of 36 km / h, which is currently the fastest player in world football, and the only active player who can break the 36 km / h mark, which can be called the speed of the leopard. In the knockout match against Argentina in the 2018 World Cup, France won 4-3 against Argentina, in which Mbappe completed a beautiful half-time rush and almost ate the entire half of Argentina's defense with his own speed. During Mbappé's attack, his maximum instantaneous speed reached 39.2 km / h, which is converted into meters per second, which is 10.89! He ran 56.3 meters at high speed and fought back. According to post-FIFA statistics, this is the fastest instantaneous speed at the World Cup in Russia. If he were to run 100 meters at this speed, Mbappe would only need 9.183 seconds, which is enough to break the 100m world record.
The fastest instantaneous speed in the World Cup in Russia was set by Cristiano Ronaldo in Portugal against Spain, at 33.95 km/h. Messi's top instantaneous speed is 32.5 km/h. This cannot but make us sigh the age gap, you know, Mbappe in 2018 was only 19 years old, and Ronaldo was 33 years old at the time, and Messi was only two years younger than Ronaldo. And Messi also said: "If I play a duel with Mbappe, I won't necessarily win because he is so fast and always catches people off guard, and I admire him." ”
If 2018 is a distant past, this Qatar World Cup, in France's 4-1 victory over Australia, according to FIFA data, Mbappe's top sprint speed is 34.7 km / h, which is still the fastest in the game, while the fastest sprint speed of the Australian team is striker Leckie's 33.4 km / h. synthesis
The Thirty-Six Days of Green Water Margin
Let the bullets fly
Celestial Star
Double Gun General Valencia
Poetry:
Merry double gun general, hero belongs to Dong Ping,
Ranked fifteenth, Ma Jun five tiger generals.
The flag shines with the sun and the moon, and the iron armor is like frost,
The two guns shake hands, charge the formation as the vanguard,
A pair of white dragons competed up and down, and two silver pythons flew one after another.
Wang Houning has a kind, the bullet is not convinced,
Selling milk for a living, clothes for football,
Mighty Warrior, Valencia Brave,
Scored two goals in the first game to break the host,
The two WTO Cups accounted for six goals, rushing to dominate the first place.
The World Cup has been played today, who is the king of guns? In addition to the French gunners Kylian Mbappe, there is another man, who currently score three goals each and are tied for the top spot. This person is not a group of famous stars such as Cristiano Ronaldo, Messi, but a figure in a small country, it is not easy to achieve such an honor, and his own experience is also worth talking about.
There is a small country in South America called Ecuador, with an area of 280,000 square kilometers, similar to Guangxi, China, with a population of 17 million, and the whole country is 4 million more than China's Chang'an. Go to the country, the country's customs Chinese people are not very understanding, only know that the rich prawns are also in demand, in the Chinese aquatic market is a sought-after goods. The country is not only in South America, but also has survived the Keju gene, and has been in the finals of the World Cup Keju Tournament several times, with mediocre results, and there is a joke that "the worst player in the continent who can play football the most". However, there is no weak brigade in South America, and there are generals in the country transliterated as Enna Valencia, who leads the way, and currently ranks first in the sharpshooters list with three goals in two rounds of the game with France's Mbappe, and scored a double goal in the first match against the host Qatar, known as the "double gun", if it were not for the introduction of black technology in the country of Qatar to award offside, it would even be possible to score three times a game, which is very rare.
The Valencian people gave the nickname "bullet", bravely forged ahead, entered the World Cup Tournament for the second time, scored a total of six goals, set the country's Jiju record, admired by the people, and just a few days ago shattered Qatar's "host undefeated" iron rule, as if it has become a national hero of Eritrea.
Valencia was a poor family when he was young, and he and his siblings milked and sold milk outside the stadium to make a living, one day, seeing all the children in the stadium playing football, on a whim, he also went to kick, but was stopped by the children, "Milk children dare to play ball, forget their last name?" Then he threw the ball in anger, "Yanque An knows the ambition of the bird, how dare the well frog speak to the sea?" I want to play football on the other side of the world and wait for 20 years. "When I got home, I made a ball out of shabby clothes and newspapers, kicked it when I was free, practiced hard, and my skills improved.
When he joined the professional team as an adult, he was still strapped for money, and he slept on the court because he had no money to buy a house, and he was able to stay in the first team of Emelec, and his income could solve the heroes' difficulties. However, the economy of Eritrea is not good, bandits are rampant, one day a strongman kidnapped his sister, his father escaped by chance, and then mediated and paid the ransom and returned, through this, Valencia decided to go abroad to develop, first Mexico, then to Britain, and finally to Turkey Country to play in the soil super Fenerbahce, like a cone in the bag, stood out and was elected the 2022 season goalscorer king.
Who knows, Valencia once had the experience of playing football in China, and it was rumored that Dalian had attracted foreign aid and had included it in the law, and the air ticket had been purchased, but for some reason it did not happen. In hindsight, with one less rich man in the country and one more king of shooters in the world, who can tell whether it is good or bad? It can only be said that it is the ear of Providence.
But no one is perfect, although the stadium is invincible, but Valencia also has a shady scene, Gai was young and golden, so he treated people harshly, especially to his ex-wife. Passing one day to play football at the Chilean stadium, Hu Yungao was unwell, took a stretcher and left the field, and then his teammates saw three or two police officers entering, and they couldn't find it, and the original ex-wife reported that he owed him $17,000 in breakup fees.
Valencia was born in November 1989, over 33 years old, 177 cm tall, and knee injury, worth 3 million euros, far from the gods of the dusk of this Kicking Competition, and the age is like a white horse passing through the gap, the Kicking Man can be called a young meal, but his age is both old and weak, why is he still leading the battle on the top of the world? Cover self-discipline and persistence, also, to the black feet, do not plead or retaliate, get up and continue; In the arena, do not wait for the ball to come, but actively run to find opportunities. Woohoo, with this person, why don't the team worry about winning? A 2-1 win over the hosts and a 1-1 draw with the Dutch "Red Ghost" are expected to qualify for the round of 16 in the group.
