From Algeria to Uzbekistan, we assess the standing of the 48 nations after the group stage of the tournament It took a little over an hour for Kylian Mbappé to find his groove.

As the World Cup group stages come to an end, BBC Sport reporters pick their highlights so far.
The Guardian FootballLionel Messi steps off bench and makes a little more history in Argentina’s World Cup win over Jordan
Give Lionel Messi half an hour and he will sprinkle some magic to remember. Most of the crowd under this vast roof had been afflicted with their own strain of Messidependencia for two‑thirds of this game, of which the low stakes had been reflected in both tempo and ambience. Everything before their idol’s arrival felt almost self-consciously like a prelude, played out in the certainty that a crescendo would follow. There was no need to worry about anything else here: why not get ready to bask in seeing a little more history being made? You can set your watch by Messi, even if that does not usually mean winding it to the 60th minute. He had agreed with Lionel Scaloni that, with Argentina already guaranteed the spoils in Group J, that he would not be unleashed until then. After all, no chances should be taken for the deadest of rubbers. Continue reading...

The Guardian FootballColombia take top spot over Portugal after draw in battle of World Cup heavyweights
While wonderful and typical theatre, it was plainly ridiculous. “I’m back!” roared Cristiano Ronaldo, as if playing a key part in Portugal’s dismissal of Uzbekistan was in any way significant. Ronaldo toiled against DR Congo and was comfortably kept quiet here by Colombia. The stars have turned up at this World Cup. Ronaldo, though, still has a way to go if seeking to prove his omnipresence at this tournament will not hinder Portuguese hopes of glory. Nobody other than Father Time has chased down Ronaldo. An alternative quote, from Trainspotting, feels more apposite than what the 41-year-old bawled into a camera as Uzbekistan were swatted aside. “Well, at one time, you’ve got it, then you lose it, and it’s gone for ever,” observed Sick Boy in an Edinburgh park. Add Ronaldo to a list that, as per the film scene, includes David Bowie, Lou Reed, Charlie Nicholas and Malcolm McLaren. Eclectic company. Ronaldo actually wants to be in the same discussion as Lionel Messi, Kylian Mbappé and Erling Haaland. He once was. Now? It is a tricky point to enforce. Continue reading...

The Guardian FootballThomas Tuchel searches for solutions to overcome Panama’s low block
England head coach has selection dilemmas, not helped by fitness issues with Declan Rice and Reece James In an ideal world, the only selection conundrum before England face Panama would be whether to rest Harry Kane or let the striker use a dead rubber against Group L’s fourth seeds as a chance to keep up with Lionel Messi, Erling Haaland, Kylian Mbappé and the other Golden Boot contenders . Yet any hope Tuchel had of giving the reserves a run out in New Jersey surely disappeared when his side drew 0-0 with Ghana on Tuesday and failed to win the group with a game to spare. Now complications remain. The schedule is brutal for England, who face a potential run of four games in 13 days, and Tuchel has a dilemma. This, after all, was surely the one that Ollie Watkins and Ivan Toney had marked down as a rare day off for Kane. But England still have to clinch top spot, so weighing up whether to get Kane to ease off before the last 32 is not as big a concern for Tuchel as working out how much of a risk to take with his rotation.

The Guardian FootballDembélé hat-trick fires France past Norway to seal top spot in World Cup group
Does anyone at the World Cup have the defensive strength to deny this hyper-mobile, supremely varied French attack? Not, it turns out, a second-string Norway, who were torn apart in the first half in Boston, as Ousmane Dembélé scored a beautifully precise 25-minute hat-trick en route to a 4-1 win. France now top Group I and will play their last-32 tie in New Jersey on Tuesday. Norway will play Côte d’Ivoire in Texas. This was a fun, freewheeling game, with the feel of a tournament formality, big third-place playoff energy. But it wasn’t quite that. Certainly nothing that happened here in the absence of the rested Erling Haaland will help nourish Norway’s late-stage tournament hopes, which are real but tentative, and which can only have been damaged by the sight of France’s attack using the corners of Egil Selvik’s goal for shooting practice in a jarringly open, defensively chaotic first half.
