This guy tied for Golden Boot too.
I didn't hear anything about Haaland's number of assists today just that he tied Messi and this guy from France who was ahead based on assists
We've been tracking the race for the Golden Boot, the award that's given to the World Cup's top goal scorer. Assists are used as a tiebreaker if two or more players have the same goal total.
That's why France's Kylian Mbappé has the lead. His two assists vault him ahead of Argentine legend Lionel Messi, even though both of them have seven goals in this year's World Cup. Mbappé scored his seventh with a 70th-minute penalty kick in the Round of 16 on Saturday against Paraguay.
