They dominated possession and the chances but 'Les Bleus' found themselves a goal down at half-time thanks to a strike by Julian Green.
However, fortunately for the World Cup favourites, their renowed attack delivered at the death to save their blushes.
A pin-point cut-back from Nabil Fekir found Mbappe in the box who had little trouble directing the ball into the back of the net to equalise.
Despite a late charge though, France succumbed to a 1-1 draw against the US which raises serious questions going into their first World Cup group match against Australia next Saturday.
