Korniłenko: Mbappe in great shape. France is definitely better than Norway

 Former Krzyly Sovetov striker Sergey Kornilenko drew attention to Kylian Mbappe's excellent form, which has a positive impact on the performance of the French national team during the 2026 World Cup. On Friday, June 26, France defeated Norway in the third round of the group stage, ending the match with a score of 4-1. Mbappe, who scored four goals in the previous two games, provided two assists this time. Korniłenko, analyzing the match, does not agree with the decision of Norwegian coach Ståle Solbakken, who fielded a reserve team against France. "France is in great shape and the Norwegians were simply not up to the challenge," he said. He also emphasized that Mbappe not only scores goals, but also cooperates effectively with the team, which translates into their success. The 2026 World Cup takes place in the United States, Canada and Mexico from June 11 to July 19. --- ## Related Articles 1.
