Kylian Mbappe and Luka Modric look set to battle it out for the Power Rankings crown in the World Cup final on Sunday.
Croatia overcame a one-goal deficit to snatch a 2-1 win in extra-time against England on Wednesday night, with captain Luka Modric claiming runner-up spot in the penultimate rankings - behind chart-topper Neymar.
England right wing-back Kieran Trippier broke the deadlock with a stunning free-kick during a dominant first half and currently ranks as the Three Lions' top player at No 4 - ahead of team-mate and top scorer Harry Kane (No 6).
Gareth Southgate's side face Belgium on Saturday in the play-off for third place, and winger Eden Hazard (No 3) could still claim the Power Rankings crown with a stellar performance.
Team-mates Romelu Lukaku (No 14) and Kevin De Bruyne (No 16) are also candidates to potentially top the chart, with the former set to challenge Kane for the Golden Boot - if both managers field their first-choice strikers.
For France, Kylian Mbappe toppled Antoine Griezmann as Les Bleus' top player after shining on the world stage during the 1-0 semi-final win over Belgium, while defender Raphael Varane (No 18) also soared up the chart.
