Kylian Mbappé and Ousmane Dembélé have etched their names into World Cup history, forging a record-breaking attacking partnership at the tournament.

Details: Mbappé and Dembélé have now combined for a goal six times at World Cups - an unmatched feat for any duo since 1966.

The French pair have leapfrogged two iconic duos in the process. Poland’s Grzegorz Lato and Andrzej Szarmach had five goal combinations, as did the German partnership of Miroslav Klose and Michael Ballack.

Now, Mbappé and Dembélé stand alone at the top of this illustrious list. Their chemistry has become one of France’s most potent weapons at major tournaments. Squawka has hailed them as the best World Cup partnership of the modern era - and after this sixth goal combination, it’s hard to argue otherwise.

Reminder: Earlier, Kylian Mbappé scored his 17th World Cup goal, overtaking Miroslav Klose and closing in on Lionel Messi’s record.
