Kylian Mbappé opened the scoring for France in their opening match against Senegal, giving Les Bleus an early advantage in what promises to be a compelling contest between two of football's most talent-rich nations.

Mbappé's strike handed France the lead as the two sides clashed in what is one of the most anticipated fixtures of the group stage. Senegal, captained by their own world-class stars, will need to respond if they are to get their tournament off to a winning start.

The encounter pits France's formidable attacking firepower against a Senegal side long established as one of Africa's finest — making this more than just another group-stage match for the continent's fans.
