France Earns Quarterfinal Berth with Mbappe and Giroud Goals

Decisive Duo Leads Victory over Poland

Giroud's Record-Breaking Strike

France secured their place in the quarterfinals of the 2022 FIFA World Cup in Qatar thanks to a comprehensive 3-1 victory over Poland on Sunday. Goals from Olivier Giroud and Kylian Mbappe propelled the reigning champions past their determined opponents.

Mbappe's Match-Winning Brace

Mbappe opened the scoring for France in the 74th minute with a clinical finish, before doubling their lead just minutes later with a stunning solo effort. Giroud had given France the lead in the 44th minute with a superb header, becoming France's all-time leading goalscorer in the process.

Poland's Resistance

Poland fought valiantly throughout the match, but they failed to find a breakthrough until the dying moments of the game when Robert Lewandowski scored a consolation penalty. Despite their efforts, Poland's World Cup journey came to an end.

France, on the other hand, have booked their place in the last eight and will now face the winner of the England vs Senegal match in the quarterfinals. Mbappe's brilliance and Giroud's record-breaking goal have set the stage for France to continue their quest for a successful title defense.
