Paris Saint-Germain forward Kylian Mbappe has rescued France in the 2022 FIFA World Cup Final against Argentina.
Argentina center-back Nicolas Otamendi wound up fouling Randal Kolo Muani in the penalty box in the second half. France was then awarded a penalty kick, and in the end, Mbappe stepped up to the plate to score a crucial penalty goal.
