The Guardian FootballErling Haaland v Kylian Mbappé: how the Norway and France hitmen match up
Two of the best forwards in the game face each other in the World Cup on Friday. Their most dramatic contrast is in international football • Golden Boot: World Cup 2026 top goalscorers • All-time World Cup goalscorers Norway v France is arguably the most talent-loaded fixture in the World Cup group stage. Transfermarkt’s combined estimated market value of the two squads is higher than for any of the other 71 matches in this phase of the tournament. Yet the vast majority of the attention at Boston Stadium will be focused on just two men: Erling Haaland and Kylian Mbappé, who are already in the leading pack to win the World Cup Golden Boot for top goalscorers, both scoring twice in each of their first two games.
