Zapping Our Mondial EXCLUDED: Randal Kolo Muani’s “Little Brother” interview!
The Blues will therefore challenge Belgium in the round of 16 to try to get their ticket to the quarter-finals. This will not be an easy task, especially when we see what the French team proposed during these group stages. If the Tricolores are certainly keen to do better in this knockout phase, it is their captain Kylian Mbappé who could be all the more motivated. He who loves breaking records could well get a new one at the end of the meeting.
Top scorer for the Blues in major tournaments?
Against Belgium, Kylian Mbappé could break a record held by the legendary Michel Platini. If “Platoche” is the best scorer in the history of a Euro with his 9 goals in just five games during the 1984 edition, the first title of the Blues, he is also the best French scorer in major tournaments (Euro and World Cup) with 14 goals scored. Mbappé is far from the mark for a Euro. He has only scored one goal in this competition and it was his penalty against Poland. However, this small goal scored against the Eagles allows him to increase his tally to 13 goals in major tournaments. After having excelled in 2018 and repeated in 2022 during the World Cups, the new captain of the Blues could therefore, if he scores even just one goal against Belgium, catch up with Michel Platini. At best, he surpasses him with a double! Let’s hope Kylian uses this to lead the Blues to victory!
