Although he ended the season on a high note once morest Greece (1-0) on Monday, Kylian Mbappé admits that he still has trouble digesting the defeat in the World Cup final once morest Argentina (3-3, 4 tab 2) last December.
Kylian Mbappé (24) has concluded his best season statistically. The striker of the France team scored his 54th and last goal (club and selection included) in 2022-2023, Monday during the narrow victory of the Blues once morest Greece (1-0) in qualifying for the Euro 2024. A penalty was enough to pursue the French faultless in the pool (four wins in as many games).
“It’s hard to say that we made history without winning the cup”
It also allowed Mbappé to break the record for goals for a French player in one season, formerly held by Just Fontaine (53). But this record retains a bitter taste for the 2018 world champion who has still not digested the defeat in the World Cup final once morest Argentina (3-3, 4 tab 2) last December. That evening, Mbappé struck by scoring a hat-trick, then converting his shot on goal.
“At the time, I would have traded the three goals once morest a very ugly CSC for 1-0, he confided following the match once morest Greece on Monday on TF1. It’s hard to think that we made history without winning the cup. We want to make history. I needed to play once more quickly. Off the pitch it was difficult because the whole planet is talking regarding it. It was too difficult, everyone said thank you. But thank you for what?
