Manchester City striker Erling Haaland scored two goals on his World Cup debut as Norway beat Iraq 4-1 to top Group I

The stars came out on day six of the World Cup as Lionel Messi, Erling Haaland and Kylian Mbappe helped themselves to seven goals. Mbappe, who scored 12 goals at the 2018 and 2022 finals, grabbed a brace as France opened their campaign with a 3-1 win over Senegal.

Erling Haaland matched Kylian Mbappe's two-goal effort earlier in the day as Norway made a winning start to their World Cup bid against Iraq.

There are positives to take for Senegal -- they were not utterly outclassed -- but reasons for optimism ought to be tempered by some lingering concerns for head coach Pape Thiaw.
