😶 “Could awaken demons”: Mbappé never wants to watch this again | OneFootball

We all know how it ended, and we’ve probably all seen it too: the 2022 World Cup final between Argentina and France. In the end, Messi got to lift the biggest trophy there is to win in the world of football. On the other side, the France stars were left empty-handed. One of them has now admitted that he has never watched the match again to this day.

Kylian Mbappé told the fantasy football platform ‘Sorare’ that, in his opinion, nothing comes close to this greatest final of all time in terms of entertainment value, the course of the game, and all its twists and turns: “It ended in a penalty shootout, the cruelest way to lose.”

After the 3-3 in regular time, the Argentinians then held their nerve better from the spot, as we all remember. The French superstar added: “Have I watched the match again since then? Never! I think if I do, it could wake up some demons again.”

And understandably, no one wants that. Still, it’s a shame, because Mbappé famously made history that night. At 23, he became the youngest player to appear in two World Cup finals, and he also scored a hat-trick.

Now the captain of the French team has his next chance to win the World Cup title. What do you think? Does France have a good chance of lifting the trophy? Feel free to write it in the comments!
