Miroslav Klose began Tuesday as the joint-leading goalscorer in World Cup history; he could yet finish the day third on the list.
Lionel Messi’s double in Argentina’s 2-0 win over Austria took him to 18, two clear of the World Cup winner, while Kylian Mbappe’s first-half strike against Iraq left him just one behind the German.
The French striker may yet add to his tally, but with storms in Philadelphia, the start to the second half of the Group I encounter, which began at 5am in Hong Kong, has been delayed.
Another great striker takes to the field at 8am, with Erling Haaland looking to add to the two he scored against Iraq, when France’s Group I rivals Norway and Senegal clash in New Jersey.
Jordan and Algeria will also battle it out at 11am for the right to finish second behind Argentina in Group J, but until then, here’s what happened overnight.
A great goalscorer
