Phil Egan is back with Tuesday’s World Cup Daily, as Lionel Messi makes more history — firing goals 17 and 18 at the tournament to move clear at the top of the all-time World Cup scoring list, with Argentina sealing top spot and a place in the last 32.
France also book their knockout place after a storm-delayed win over Iraq, with Kylian Mbappé striking twice on his 100th cap, while Erling Haaland bags a brace as Norway join them in the next round.
Plus: England v Ghana build-up, Ronaldo and Portugal v Uzbekistan, hydration-break debate, and a busy night in the LOI — Rovers held by Derry and Bohs hammer Shels in the Dublin Derby.
