FULL-TIME!

France dominates Iraq with a 3-0 victory at Philadelphia Stadium in the FIFA World Cup.

SUB: Mbappe's final act is that wild effort, as Inter Milan striker Marcus Thuram replaces him.

Mbappe now ties Miroslav Klose's all-time World Cup record of 16 goals with his brace tonight.

Mbappe picks up a misplaced pass in the Iraqi defense and zooms in behind!

But he can't get the finish right and blazes it over.

Mbappe is found with a smart cross-pitch switch, but he's offside.

His half-volley inside the box is on target, but it's an easy stop for Basil as the flag goes up.

Iraq keeps battling, showing real grit.

This squad is surely learning a ton from facing a team of France's caliber.

SUB: Gusto replaces Kounde in Chelsea's second change of this double switch.

SUB: Barcola exits after another impressive showing.

Monaco's Maghnes Akliouche comes on for his first taste of World Cup action.

Barcola blazes down the left and unselfishly cuts it back for Mbappe, but it's turned behind for a corner.

The ensuing French attack ends with the offside flag going up.

Mbappe steps across Sher on the left side of the box, pushing the ball through the defender's legs.

He goes down claiming a penalty for a body check, but the referee waves it off!

Mbappe stays active and then fires a shot just wide of the left post.

An intriguing stat from the FIFA archives: Mbappe is now the fourth player to score two or more goals in at least three successive FIFA World Cup appearances.

He joins Sandor Kocsis (1954, four-game run), Guillermo Stabile (1930), and Lionel Messi (2026).

AL HAMADI!

WHISKERS WIDE OF THE RIGHT POST!

A fine cross from the left curls over for the forward, who stretches to poke a poacher's effort just wide of the woodwork and a sprawling Maignan from close range!

Barcola tracks back well and slides in to concede a corner for Iraq on the right.

Iqbal's corner comes in, but Sulaka can't keep his half-volleyed effort down.
