1:26Now PlayingSome fans are watching record-setters, like Argentina's Lionel Messi, who just set a new all-time scoring record for the World Cup. (France's Kylian Mbappé is not far behind in goal scoring.) But other stars are on the rise. Cape Verde's goal keeper Vozinha has become an overnight sensation, and at just 18 years old, Lamine Yamal had an impressive debut playing for Spain. Still, many soccer fans are rooting for their league favorites, like Brazil's Matheus Cunha and England's Bukayo Saka.
