Goals Needed for Messi to Surpass Mbappé
Lionel Messi is aiming to regain the title of all-time top scorer in the World Cup during the 2026 edition. He needs to score two goals in the final against Spain to reach 23 goals and surpass Kylian Mbappé, who currently has 22 goals. The two players are also competing for the Golden Boot; Messi would need to net a hat-trick in the final to overtake Mbappé, who ends the tournament with 10 goals. The award for the top scorer is determined by the number of goals scored, assists, and, if necessary, the least playing time if both players are tied in numbers. It is worth noting that Messi is currently tied with Mbappé in assists, with four each.
