FIFA World Cup Group: France captain Kylian Mbappe is set to make his 100th appearance for the national team when France faces Iraq in a FIFA World Cup Group I match on Monday.

The milestone comes less than a week after the 27-year-old became France's all-time leading scorer.

Mbappe scored twice in France's 3-1 victory over Senegal in its tournament opener on June 16, taking his international tally to 58 goals and surpassing Olivier Giroud's previous national record of 57.
