Unstoppable. Kylian Mbappé seems to have the determination to be the player who dominates the sports world, and this time he gave another exhibition of it. The PSG forward was present in the thrashing that France inflicted on Kazakhstan in the ninth round of Group D of the Qatar 2022 Qualifiers, and he shined with a 'poker'.
The now teammate of Lionel Messi was not willing to forgive any chance, and in less than 30 minutes he already achieved a hat-trick, one of them thanks to a great combination with Karim Benzema.
This was Mbappé's fourth goal
After going to halftime with a difference of three goals, the 22-year-old footballer participated more in the collective elaboration and had to wait until the final stretch to score his fourth goal. This came through a fast attack transition, which ended with an unstoppable right shot for goalkeeper Pokatilov.

In this way, the young attacker allowed his squad to take a resounding 8-0 victory and secure their qualification to the next World Cup. Furthermore, this is the first time he has scored four goals with the French national team.
It is worth mentioning that, at the club level, Mbappé has already scored a 'poker'. He achieved it in 2018. On that occasion, the capital team defeated Olympique de Lyon 5-0 in Ligue 1.
