Ln April 27, Mathieu Cafaro, who worked for Standard between 2022 and 2023, injured his nose and chose not to have an operation. When Kylian Mbappé suffered the same type of injury, the player who now plays for Saint-Etienne explains that he did not want to wear a mask.
“I lasted one training session and twenty minutes in a match. I took the mask off after twenty minutes because it interfered with my vision too much. You see a lot less well with it so it’s very annoying. There aren’t too many problems with breathing because of the mask, but vision is difficult. I took a risk in playing without a mask, it was haphazard if I took a shot again,” explains the midfielder to our colleagues at The Team.
“In any case, you will go through the operation”
For him, the operation is inevitable: “Afterwards, not having the operation has consequences. In any case, you will have the operation, maybe in a month, six months, or a year. And as the nose will have reconsolidated itself, it must be broken to operate. »
The captain of the France team Kylian Mbappé, victim of a broken nose on Monday during the Blues’ first match at Euro 2024 against Austria (1-0), “remains uncertain” for Friday’s match against in the Nederlands.
