Mbappe wins Golden Boot
East Rutherford: Kylian Mbappe won the FIFA World Cup 2026 Golden Boot on Sunday after Lionel Messi failed to add to his tally in the final against Spain.
The France captain scored 10 goals to top the charts ahead of Argentina great Messi, who finished with eight.

England midfielder Jude Bellingham and Norway striker Erling Haaland each scored seven times.

Real Madrid forward Mbappe, 27, also won the prize at the FIFA World Cup Qatar 2022, where France were beaten finalists.

The Frenchman, who made his World Cup debut in 2018, scored twice in Saturday's third-place playoff, which England won 6-4.

Mbappe is now the top scorer in FIFA World Cup history, with 22 goals across three tournaments, one ahead of Messi.

"I would have preferred not to be the all-time top scorer and to be playing tomorrow's match," said Mbappe, who has won more than 100 caps, after the defeat against England.
