Messi? Mbappé? Haaland?
We had storms, we had weather delays, and we had Lionel Messi making history; yesterday might have been the most dramatic day of action at this year’s World Cup. And where Messi led the way, the likes of Kylian Mbappé and Erling Haaland followed with all three superstars scoring two goals in their respective games.
Today, we have two more goal machines taking to the stage. Cristiano Ronaldo is back for Portugal and Harry Kane is spearheading England as the race for the Golden Boot (the tournament’s top goalscorer) heats up. Plenty to talk about in today’s edition, including more on a viral World Cup trend and a famous superfan set to be supporting DR Congo from the stands.
The current odds suggest Messi is the favorite. The Argentine is in such brilliant goalscoring form that it’s not hard to see why. He also has the added advantage of not really having to defend for his team, meaning he can save his energy for attacking plays only. His teammates also look to pass to him at every opportunity, so he’s going to have plenty more chances as the Albiceleste threaten to go deep in this tournament.
