Last update: 11 hours agoWorld Cup Recap: England beat France 6-4 in the third-place playoff in Miami as Bukayo Saka exploded for a hat trick and Kylian Mbappé surpassed Lionel Messi’s all-time World Cup scoring record with 22 career goals; England led 4-0 at halftime on strikes by Declan Rice and Ezri Konsa plus two Saka goals, then France roared back with Mbappé scoring twice, before Saka sealed it with a late penalty and Jude Bellingham added England’s sixth in stoppage time. Records & Context: The match became the highest-scoring World Cup third-place game ever, with 10 goals total—the most in a third-place playoff since the tournament’s early decades—and the first time in 64 years both teams scored four or more in the same World Cup match. El Salvador Link: The record-setting 10-goal total was compared to Hungary’s 10-1 win over El Salvador in 1982, the last time a World Cup match reached that kind of scoring spree.
