No, I never had his talent.“He has so much speed... he’s a forward, he can’t be compared with me.” Mbappe took his World Cup goal tally to three with a deadly double against Argentina which saw him match the teenage achievements of Brazil icon Pele. He had previously netted the only goal of the game in a group-stage victory over Peru, with that effort helping France to top their standings and move into the last 16 unbeaten.A quarter-final outing is next on the agenda, with Les Bleus set to face either Portugal or Uruguay. Pogba and Mbappe will have important roles to play in that contest, with Didier Deschamps looking to key men to continue providing inspiration as his class of 2018 seek to emulate what he achieved as France captain 20 years ago.</blockquote>
