England Stun France in Goal Fest for Third Place

England claimed the bronze medal at the 2026 World Cup after a dominant first-half display against France in Miami on Sunday. The English side raced to a three-goal lead before France mounted a second-half comeback, but ultimately fell short, ensuring Didier Deschamps' final match as French manager ended in defeat.

Despite the loss, the tournament saw historic achievements for two French stars. Kylian Mbappé surpassed Miroslav Klose's record to become the all-time leading goalscorer in World Cup history, while Michael Olise equaled Lionel Messi's record for the most assists in the competition.

The focus now shifts to Sunday's final between Spain and Argentina. Spain will look to add another star to their jersey, while Argentina aims to become the first team to win back-to-back World Cups in several years.
