As Zlatan Ibrahimović said on FOX after Argentina's win over Algeria, Tuesday was "a day full of stars, and they delivered." Kylian Mbappé, Erling Haaland and Lionel Messi all scored multiple goals at the 2026 World Cup on Tuesday, with Messi becoming the oldest player in World Cup history to score a hat trick.
It was an electric day from start to finish.
Here is everything you might have missed on Day 6 of the 2026 FIFA World Cup: France vs.
Jordan BEST OF THE DAY Goal Of The Day The best goal of Messi's hat trick was the first.
He picked up the ball on a pass from Inter Miami teammate Rodrigo de Paul before turning up the field, putting the ball on his left foot and putting a brilliant shot in the top corner.
Messi had a goal taken off the board because he was offside, but he ensured he would not leave the game emptyhanded – and then scored two more.
Assist Of The Day Olise entered the tournament as an emerging superstar.
He just finished his second season at Bayern Munich and has become a mainstay for the French national team.
He put his playmaking skills on display with Mbappé's first goal of the game, playing a fantastic through ball down the field that left France's captain with a one-on-one chance that he converted.
Save Of The Day Zidane, son of former France superstar Zinedine Zidane, has established himself as the No.
1 goalkeeper at Granada in Spain.
His father coached many times against Messi, trying to stop the Argentine superstar.
This time, the younger Zidane pulled off a great save to deny Messi a hat trick in the 66th minute.
Unfortunately for him, Messi would not be denied and still got his third goal.
Moment Of The Day Tuesday was a day for superstars.
The first three games started with three of the world's best attackers scoring goal after goal.
The final one was an incredible moment in Kansas City that saw Messi make history in multiple ways, tying the record for most goals in World Cup history and becoming the oldest player ever to record a hat trick.
