A surprise to nobody, Kylian Mbappé continues to rise up the scoring charts for France.

The PSG man popped up in the box to fire home a superb side-footed volley, putting France one ahead of The Netherlands in their EURO Qualifier showdown.

But he was not done. In the second half the lethal winger cut inside onto his right foot before firing a long-range missile into the top corner to double his side’s lead.

With that strike, Mbappé has moved up to fourth outright on the all-time scoring list for France, passing legendary midfielder Michel Platini with his 42nd.

Astonishingly, the forward has racked up that impressive haul in just 72 appearances for Les Bleus.

He is now just 11 off his long-time teammate Olivier Giroud’s national record of 53, which he will no doubt beat in the near future.

At 24-years-old, who knows how many he might end up with?
