Szczesny: 'The key to stopping Mbappe? Me!'
He's already saved a Lionel Messi this tournament. Now he's looking to defy France's monstrous weapon - Kylian Mbappe.
The Polish stop thinks he's the key to stopping the French superstar. You can't argue with his confidence!
Read Sportsmail's full story below.
Kylian Mbappe, the player Qatar have paid a fortune to keep in Paris, is pretty much all this country's leaders have left to crow about at their World Cup, in a footballing sense.

A date with England?
Right, let's not get ahead of ourselves... Senegal presents a BIG challenge for England and it would be wrong to spend too much time looking beyond the round of 16 at this stage.
However, what we do know is that the winner of France vs Poland will play the victor of England vs Senegal in the quarter-finals.
Sportsmail's Danny Murphy takes a look a key match-up should favourites England and France advance. Read the full story below...
Kylian Mbappe is very different from Diego Maradona in his style of play but in terms of importance to their countries, there is a comparison to be made.

Mbappe snubs Budweiser
Kylian Mbappe has been deliberately hiding Budweiser's name in his man of the match photographs to avoid promoting alcohol at the World Cup, according to reports.
Mbappe, who has been awarded with the match trophy on two occasions already this tournament, does not want to be associated with the World Cup's main sponsor Budweiser.
He's certainly a contender to win the man of the match award this afternoon, but Budweiser will be hoping he has an off day!

France well rested
France's positive start to the World Cup gifted Didier Deschamps the chance to rotate against Tunisia, following wins against Denmark and Australia.
Star man Kylian Mbappe dropped to the bench against Tunisia alongside Antoine Griezmann, Ousmane Dembele and Olivier Giroud, but the defending champions looked vulnerable as a result and lost 1-0 to the African side.
Short-term loss for long-term gain was arguably the strategy here, and France head into the clash with Poland fully rested.
This could be a long and tricky afternoon for the Poles...
