Ismaila Sarr speaks

“I'm very tired - the whole team is - but I’m very happy because we secured another good win and I managed to score a goal to help the team.
"We conceded a goal after only nine or 10 minutes, but we stayed together and got the equaliser, which was pleasing. To then go on and get the win was great, and all the effort we put in was rewarded.''

Players who scored hat-trick

Earlier, Sports Brief had reported how football fans everywhere on earth are eagerly waiting for the commencement of the 2022 FIFA World Cup, which will be taking place in Qatar starting from November 20.

The World Cup is rated as the biggest football tournament in the world, considering the level of the competition and the rivalries among the players, nations and even fans.

Qatar, who will be hosting this year's edition of the World Cup, will not be given much chance to win the coveted title - but they may fight harder this time around even though they are not rated among the top footballing nations.

France are the reigning champions of the world, winning the title in Russia four years ago beating Croatia in the final. The match gave Kylian Mbappe a platform to launch himself into superstardom.
