WHAT HAPPENED? Mbappe tweeted in all-caps when Hakimi converted a Panenka to win a last-16 shootout against Spain on Tuesday, celebrating his friend's accomplishment.

THE BIGGER PICTURE: Mbappe is still in the World Cup with France and could conceivably meet Morocco later in the tournament, but his friendship with Hakimi takes precedence at this stage.

WHAT NEXT FOR MBAPPE? The forward will lead France into the quarter-final against England in one of the most anticipated matches of the round.
