This is the total statistics so far according to Fédération Internationale de Football Association (International Federation of Association Football) source with FIFA World Cup Russia tournament statistics total of 169 goals scored, 219 Yellow cards, 4 Red Cards and 49651 Passes Completed.<br /> <h3> 1) <u>Harry KANE Profile</u>:</h3> Captain Harry Kane is England’s undoubted talisman, leader and key player. The prolific Tottenham Hotspur man is a forward who can score all types of goals: with both feet, his head, from distance or from inside the six yard box – he has consistently found the net for club and country since bursting into the Spurs first team in the 2014-15 campaign, winning the English Premier League Golden Boot in 2015-16 and 2016-17.<br /> <br /> To say then that England are reliant on Kane is a vast understatement. He played a pivotal role on the road to the 2018 FIFA World Cup Russia™, scoring winning goals against Slovenia and Lithuania and a late equaliser against Scotland – those three goals alone accounting for seven qualifying points. Kane will be looking to carry that influence into the finals themselves, and step up to the next level of superstardom by shining at a World Cup.<br /> <h3> Harry KANE Footballer Details Below:</h3> Age: 24<br /> Height: 188.0 cm<br /> Date of Birth: 28 July 1993<br /> International Caps: 30<br /> International Goals: 19<br /> <br /> <h3> 2) <u>Antoine GRIEZMANN Profile</u>:</h3> Antoine Griezmann no longer needs any introduction. Since being nominated as one of three finalists for The Best FIFA Men's Player Award for 2016, the forward has remained consistently effective, as proved by his goal and assist numbers with both Atletico Madrid and France this term.<br /> <br /> Not the most powerful player at 5'9'', the Macon native makes up for any frailty with his speed, vision, dribbling acumen and eye for goal, while his left foot can be deadly from set-pieces. For France, he has become a core member of the team, whether on the left up front in a 4-3-3 formation or the second striker in a 4-2-3-1. In either role, Grizou is a vital asset, having often proved decisive for Les Bleus on the road to the 2018 FIFA World Cup Russia™.<br /> <br /> <h3> Antoine GRIEZMANN Footballer Details Below:</h3> Age: 27<br /> Height: 174.0 cm<br /> Date of Birth: 21 March 1991<br /> International Caps: 61<br /> International Goals: 24<br /> <br /> <h3> 3) <u>Romelu LUKAKU Profile</u>:</h3> The question of who is Belgium’s first-choice striker is one that was posed for several seasons but which finally seems to have found a definitive answer. After top-scoring in the Belgian league at the age of 16 with Anderlecht, Romelu Lukaku has continued to ply his trade to good effect in the English Premier League with West Bromwich Albion, Everton and now Manchester United.<br /> “Big Rom” has power and pace to go with his goalscoring touch, and made an early impact in his international career, scoring twice in a friendly against Russia as a mere 17-year-old. Now the all-time leading goalscorer in the history of Les Diables Rouges, Lukaku has won the football world over with his impressive statistics and drive and determination. A scorer against USA at Brazil 2014, the frontman heads to Russia 2018 in fine form, having struck 11 goals in the qualifiers.<br /> <h3> Romelu LUKAKU Footballer Details Below:</h3> Age: 25<br /> Height: 190.0 cm<br /> Date of Birth: 13 May 1993<br /> International Caps: 75<br /> International Goals: 40<br /> <br /> <h3> 4) <u>Denis CHERYSHEV Profile:</u></h3> Son of former striker Dmitry Cheryshev, Denis moved to Spain aged six with his father, who had just signed for Sporting Gijon. Denis himself started out at Sporting before following his dad to Burgos CF and eventually getting a chance at Real Madrid’s academy.<br /> <br /> Denis rose through the ranks in Madrid, having a particularly successful stint in the ‘B’ team, Real Madrid Castilla. His performances were such that in November 2012, he became the first Russian player to play for Los Merengues in a competitive fixture.<br /> <br /> Persistent injuries prevented the winger from nailing down a starting role at the Spanish giants, so he went on loan in search of playing time at Sevilla, Villarreal and then Valencia. In summer 2016, Villarreal decided to bring him back on a permanent basis.<br /> <br /> Cheryshev’s debut for Russia came in November 2012 against USA. His experience of playing in one of the strongest leagues in the world will no doubt come in useful for the Sbornaya this summer.<br /> <br /> <h3> Denis CHERYSHEV Footballer Details Below:</h3> Age: 27<br /> Height: 173.0 cm<br /> Date of Birth: 26 December 1990<br /> International Caps: 16<br /> International Goals: 4<br /> <br /> <h3> 5) <u>Cristiano RONALDO Profile:</u></h3> The Real Madrid forward is Portugal’s captain, most capped player and leading all-time goalscorer. Still supremely fit and as committed as ever, he is more of a penalty box operator these days, having lost none of his scoring touch or his gift for breaking records.<br /> <br /> A formidable dribbler and a considerable aerial threat, Ronaldo is noted for his power, speed and instinct, qualities that have seen him named as the world’s best player on five occasions by FIFA. The most special of all the many honours he has won, however, is UEFA EURO 2016, his country’s first major trophy, which he had the honour of raising as skipper. The 2018 FIFA World Cup Russia™ will be his fourth world finals appearance.<br /> <h3> Cristiano RONALDO Footballer Details Below:</h3> Age: 33<br /> Height: 185.0 cm<br /> Date of Birth: 05 February 1985<br /> International Caps: 153<br /> International Goals: 85<br /> <br /> <h3> 6) <u>Kylian MBAPPE Profile:</u></h3> Befitting his status as the symbol of a new era for French football, Kylian Mbappe was the first player called up by France to be born after their 1998 FIFA World Cup™ win. The forward was already making waves and being showered with plaudits when he got the call, thanks in large part to his superb UEFA Champions League performances for Monaco.<br /> <br /> Far from letting the praise go to his head, the thrilling young prodigy continued his rise by joining Paris Saint-Germain, where his statistics have again been remarkable. He has also emerged as an important player for Les Bleus, notching his maiden strike on his fifth appearance, a crucial 4-0 victory against the Netherlands on the road to Russia 2018.<br /> <br /> Thanks to his extraordinary bursts of speed, his unpredictability and his intelligence on the pitch, Mbappe is already considered one of world football's finest players, and he will be anxious to underline his standing in Russia.<br /> <h3> Kylian MBAPPE Footballer Details Below:</h3> Age: 19<br /> Height: 178.0 cm<br /> Date of Birth: 20 December 1998<br /> International Caps: 22<br /> International Goals: 8<br /> <br /> <table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody> <tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhqhY7wGS7Ji3gj-QlxNy0_f-gYLZwesrel-ssNkZQiBfFNLc4Ct97CkIrRQTFp6gZgbFZDARIz7YPUIfIuzgwzrSs5gsYedTCG3f9m6te2p-Mg2HHPZIWEGFJd9ruvEM5fXV4H-D0l46pT/s1600/Top-Scorers-at-2018-FIFA-World-Cup.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" data-original-height="560" data-original-width="1180" height="302" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhqhY7wGS7Ji3gj-QlxNy0_f-gYLZwesrel-ssNkZQiBfFNLc4Ct97CkIrRQTFp6gZgbFZDARIz7YPUIfIuzgwzrSs5gsYedTCG3f9m6te2p-Mg2HHPZIWEGFJd9ruvEM5fXV4H-D0l46pT/s640/Top-Scorers-at-2018-FIFA-World-Cup.JPG" width="640" /></a></td></tr> <tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">Top Goal Scorers At 2018 FIFA World Cup Russia With 64/64 Matches Played </td></tr> </tbody></table> <br /> <strong>Source: <a href="http://ghanasky.com/" target="_blank">GhanaSky.com - The sky is our limit</a> </strong>

The landmarks came thick and fast in the first half too.<br /> <br /> Croatia had started full of energy but fell behind when Mandzukic, who scored the extra-time winner against England in the semi-final, became the first man to score an own goal in a World Cup final when a Griezmann free kick skidded in off his head in the 18th minute. It was the 12th own goal of the tournament.<br /> <br /> That meant it was the fourth successive knockout game that Croatia had conceded first but Perisic, who got the equaliser against England, was on hand again to level the scores 10 minutes later, smashing in a low shot after Sime Vrsaljko had headed Luka Modric's free kick across the box.<br /> <br /> But it was then Perisic's turn go from hero to zero when he flapped an arm at a corner and, after a VAR review, Argentine referee Nestor Pitana awarded the 28th penalty of the tournament, another record, which Griezmann stroked home in the 38th minute for his fourth goal of Russia 2018.<br /> <br /> That made it the highest-scoring first half since 1974, when West Germany led the Netherlands 2-1 - also the final score then.<br /> <br /> It was harsh on Croatia, who had made most of the running, and they were on top again after the break, continually winning their one-on-one duels in the air and in every tackle and forging forward in the French box with plenty of variety.<br /> <br /> <br /> But France's defence, so impressive all tournament, held and they went 3-1 up on the hour as Mbappe and Griezmann combined to set up Pogba on the edge of the box. His right-footed shot was blocked but he coolly curved the rebound in with his left.<br /> <br /> <br /> After three successive extra-time knockout games the chances of another Croatian comeback seemed slight but they looked dead and buried six minutes later. Lucas Hernandez tore down the left to set up Mbappe who drilled a low shot beyond keeper Danijel Subasic for the 19-year-old's fourth goal of the tournament.<br /> <br /> <br /> An awful blunder by Lloris revived Croatia, as the French keeper tried to dribble around Mandzukic only for the striker to tap the ball straight into an unguarded net.<br /> <br /> <br /> Croatia, beaten by the French in the semi-finals in their first World Cup appearance in 1998, continued to press but their energy was sapped and France safely held out for the victory.<br /> <table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody> <tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjylPY_ns7KE92AKqKFtHFk1NmGIK5NpmyAEcS2qW_MG7nj4ndPSeOSb_YzdFhegJz2MaDJED8oY9p0ZeoBuhGBvTk8Ru5mnNU5R1ocJk9GmyoBtcn4YhUXUCGVwGDQWLKPhNqPHpfedcZI/s1600/france-world-cup-winners_2018.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" data-original-height="630" data-original-width="1440" height="280" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjylPY_ns7KE92AKqKFtHFk1NmGIK5NpmyAEcS2qW_MG7nj4ndPSeOSb_YzdFhegJz2MaDJED8oY9p0ZeoBuhGBvTk8Ru5mnNU5R1ocJk9GmyoBtcn4YhUXUCGVwGDQWLKPhNqPHpfedcZI/s640/france-world-cup-winners_2018.jpg" width="640" /></a></td></tr> <tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">France are Russia 2018 champions after 4-2 win in Moscow, Russia.</td></tr> </tbody></table> <table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody> <tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjku_zo_RZ5A1VxQ3lUfTP5k8-vMKmb2ZWxjw9B50LxVfV0BtaUrs5jsCALQ6wUj0CGonLWYaYnP0IxauDQZiW9w6e0BW9GoJbDARrvYx9itFB2yoXrPMhWXKM0_4CemLKxyPGXDb19K6O8/s1600/france+team.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" data-original-height="432" data-original-width="768" height="360" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjku_zo_RZ5A1VxQ3lUfTP5k8-vMKmb2ZWxjw9B50LxVfV0BtaUrs5jsCALQ6wUj0CGonLWYaYnP0IxauDQZiW9w6e0BW9GoJbDARrvYx9itFB2yoXrPMhWXKM0_4CemLKxyPGXDb19K6O8/s640/france+team.jpg" width="640" /></a></td></tr> <tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">France are Russia 2018 FIFA World Cup champions after 4-2 win in Moscow.</td></tr> </tbody></table> <table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody> <tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiPC-RAuUa2GFT1ZQofQlKYuYw2d6MMdeBMvozdiotqoUuE_mJvbusnxOJqAkx1Pb-OhkHji90ZcHJ8HqgBvdKvmYGC6_x00l1tTOSImDKNgzKa4bPUpet33P_63opV75bh3Iv3vX7yVmkT/s1600/Antoine-Griezmann.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" data-original-height="432" data-original-width="768" height="360" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiPC-RAuUa2GFT1ZQofQlKYuYw2d6MMdeBMvozdiotqoUuE_mJvbusnxOJqAkx1Pb-OhkHji90ZcHJ8HqgBvdKvmYGC6_x00l1tTOSImDKNgzKa4bPUpet33P_63opV75bh3Iv3vX7yVmkT/s640/Antoine-Griezmann.jpg" width="640" /></a></td></tr> <tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">Antoine Griezmann Sealed 2018 FIFA World Cup Trophy with a kiss.</td></tr> </tbody></table> <br /> <table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody> <tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiHBWLWSPIqKFL0nQV_8Xd45i4kGtTNHlq6YM4YRKoyAWnXHK-uXdDlj1aWJKi9CCSXKCsZka6UIw1Ki5qs5Sj1FXTY5SA12YaE5fCHa2wBLgryPydMnXkNA2l3bCNkB0xv_b6HIIdJNhWS/s1600/Kylian-Mbappe.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" data-original-height="432" data-original-width="768" height="360" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiHBWLWSPIqKFL0nQV_8Xd45i4kGtTNHlq6YM4YRKoyAWnXHK-uXdDlj1aWJKi9CCSXKCsZka6UIw1Ki5qs5Sj1FXTY5SA12YaE5fCHa2wBLgryPydMnXkNA2l3bCNkB0xv_b6HIIdJNhWS/s640/Kylian-Mbappe.jpg" width="640" /></a></td></tr> <tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">France forward Kylian Mbappe, a goalscorer in the showpiece, takes the FIFA Young Player award.
