5. Yassine Bounou

Bounou with the gloves has been stunning in this World Cup. Bounou has faced world-class strikers like Morata, Hazard, and Ronaldo yet they failed to net even one strike against Bounou.

Mbappe is the most important French player in the tournament and Hakimi’s experience of playing with him may come in handy for Morocco. 

2. Olivier Giroud

Morocco will be a tough competition for Giroud too, Atlas Lions so far have tamed Cristiano Ronaldo and Eden hazard strikers in this tournament. Giroud has scored in crucial moments for French. 

1. Kylian Mbappe

Even before the World Cup 2022 started Kylian Mbappe was expected to be in the frontline for the Golden Boot race. Mbappe proving his worth has scored 5 goals and is the top Scorer of this edition.
