Les Bleus forward Mbappe has now banged in nine goals for Didier Deschamps' side in his last five matches.
And he scored his first against the 2010 World Cup hosts in emphatic fashion with a beautiful curling strike into the top right corner.

He then doubled his tally for the night from the penalty spot in the 76th minute.
