Kylian Mbappé, again scorer
Galvanized by this victory, Kylian Mbappé was delighted to have been able to score with his team: “We came here to win because we knew the importance of this match. We had to win after Barça's draw (at Celta Vigo, Saturday, 2-2). We started the meeting wellwith rhythm, good combinations in one or two touches of the ball and settling ourselves in the Leganés camp. We scored the first goal and it's always important to score it quickly when you play away. And then, at the end of the match, we scored the second and third goals.”he confided. Good news finally for the French international who has been in turmoil for many months. Weakened by his setbacks in the French team, the captain of the Blues has made millions of young people dream.
His former comrades talk about the player's personality
Moreover, those who knew him when he was a child did not hesitate to confide in him. Questioned by our colleagues from Parisiansome of his childhood friends talk about a kid who was addicted to football since he was little.
“He wasn’t like us.”says Taylor, his former neighbor. “He was a phenomenon on the football field and a discreet kid off it. In the neighborhood, he wasn't a child like us. He didn't hang out, didn't do stupid things… He only went to his friends' houses from time to time.”he remembers. Unlike some young people around him, Kylian Mbappé was already very focused on his objectives: “His life was: school, football and sleep. I knew he was going to succeed“.
“If someone had told me…”
“When you can stay on the straight and narrow in a neighborhood like that, and with all that talent, you're bound to succeed.”. An observation that another relative confirms: “He was rather reserved compared to other INF players and without history. His humility was truly remarkable. He had a good head on his shoulders and that’s still the case today.”he confided. “If someone had told me six years ago that Kylian was going to become one of the best players in the world and play in a World Cup final, I wouldn't have believed it. But he deserves it so much. He lives football, eats football, sleeps football and breathes football..
