LIVE: Mbappe Eyes World Cup Glory & Hunts Messi's Record | FIFA WC | First Sports With Rupha Ramani

Lionel Messi continues to rewrite history, while Kylian Mbappe is closing in on the Argentine legend's all-time FIFA World Cup goals record at breathtaking speed. In the clash against Sweden, the French captain scored a brace to take his all-time tally to 18. He is only one goal behind Messi. But for Mbappe, this isn't just about goals; it is about redemption. Four years after the heartbreaking 2022 FIFA World Cup final, the French superstar is chasing another title, while Messi looks to defend his crown for probably one last time. Rupha Ramani breaks down the fierce Messi-Mbappe rivalry, the lingering PSG tensions, the emotional scars of Qatar 2022, and why the 2026 FIFA World Cup could become the ultimate passing of the torch in world football.

Also on the show, India's reign as T20 world champions is already under scrutiny after a shocking series defeat to Ireland. As England await, should Team India trust experience or gamble on Vaibhav Sooryavanshi and respond to the biggest test of Gautam Gambhir's tenure yet? And the 2026 FIFA World Cup has left more than broken dreams in its wake. It has triggered resignations, political intervention and national outrage. Have football defeats exposed deeper cracks in governance, leadership and identity? Find out how nations are now taking the beautiful game far too seriously.
