Mbappe leads France to win over Iraq in lightning-delayed World Cup game

In a World Cup match affected by severe weather delays, Kylian Mbappe led France to a 3-0 victory over Iraq. Mbappe scored twice, including his second brace of the tournament, while Ousmane Dembele added another goal. The game was delayed by nearly two hours due to thunderstorms, which forced players and fans to seek shelter. Despite the interruption, France dominated the match, with Mbappe scoring in the 14th minute and again after a defensive error by Iraq. Dembele's goal came 12 minutes later, sealing the win. Iraq remains in contention for a knockout spot but faces challenges ahead.
