It was a relaxed, smiling Kylian Mbappé who introduced himself to journalists on the eve of France – Belgium. As usual, the captain of the Blues, very free in his communication, hid nothing. The lack of success of the Blues?It’s clear that it was problematic.“The level of Belgium?”They lost to Slovakia ok, but we didn’t beat the Netherlands or Poland.” Frank and incisive answers. But where the captain of the Blues was most enlightening, it was about his start to the tournament and his broken nose.
He did not try to hide the difficulties he has been experiencing since his broken nose suffered at the end of the match against Austria. “I didn’t think so, but playing with a mask is an absolute horror, I changed because every time something went wrongadmitted Mbappé, who tried more than four. It’s really complicated, it limits vision, the sweat gets stuck, you have to remove it for it to flow.As soon as I can take it off, I’ll take it off, but I have no choice, my competition is going to be like this, I can only play like this. It’s annoying, but I have to thank the mask.“
As for contesting a headed ball again, “I haven’t worn one since I broke my nose.smiled Mbappé. But if I have to put it on to score, I’ll put it on. It’s already broken, it’s not going to break again“.
