He finished as the joint second-highest goal scorer as France won the tournament, and won FIFA World Cup Best Young Player and French Player of the Year for his performances. At the 2022 FIFA World Cup, France finished as runners-up, with Mbappé scoring a hat-trick in the final, winning the tournament's Golden Boot and Silver Ball, and becoming the top goal scorer of all time in World Cup finals.
Mbappé was named to the FIFA FIFPro World11 in 2018 and 2019, the UEFA Team of the Year in 2018 and the UEFA Champions League Squad of the Season in 2016–17, 2019–20, 2020–21 and 2021–22.
