France secured passage to the second round of the World Cup with an easy 3-0 victory over Iraq, where the protagonist of the match that lasted 4 hours was Kylian Mbappe.

The difference between the two teams was obvious and the striker scored the first goal for his team in the first half. Then, a downpour accompanied by lightning passed over the stadium, which forced the start of the second half to be postponed for almost two hours.

After the teams returned to the field once again to continue the match, Mbappe doubled the lead by continuing to chase Lionel Messi with what was his fourth goal of this edition of the World Cup and his 16th overall in his career at the tournament.

Dembele's goal then sealed the 3-0 victory that comfortably sent France through to the next round of the competition.
