"'Field goal 0' Mbappe mental breakdown "This tournament failed...You must be on vacation soon"

Jul 10, 2024

Kylian Mbappe seems to be in quite a shock.

France lost 1-2 in the Euro 2024 semi-final against Spain at Allianz Arena in Munich, Germany on the 10th (Korea time). This defeat closed the tournament for France.

We got off to a good start. Mbappe scored France's first goal. In the 9th minute of the first half, Mbappe scored a sensational cross from the left. Randal Kolo Moani moved back and scored a header. It was Mbappe's first help in this tournament.

But France's joy did not last long. In the 21st minute of the first half, Lamine Yamal, who caught the ball outside the penalty box, shook France's net with a fantastic mid-range shot after showing brilliant footwork in front of Adrian Rabiot.

France began to crumble. Three minutes later, France lost control of Jesus Navas' cross. William Saliba cleared it with his head, but Dani Olmo showed fantastic skills after catching it again and made France's net wobble with a powerful shot.

France, which allowed a turnaround in an instant, failed to use its power. Spain failed to control the left and right wings from launching a sharp attack through Niko Williams and Yamal. France changed the atmosphere in the second half, but the finish at the gate was not good. Mbappe also faced a good opportunity in the 41st minute of the second half, but he held his head after showing a ridiculous shot.

In the end, France lost and did not reach the final. Mbappe looked mentally struggling after the defeat. Mbappe, who gets smaller whenever he goes to the euro, failed to break the jinx again this time. Despite his broken nose, he tried as the team's captain and ace but failed to produce the result.

He tried more than 20 shots throughout the tournament, but the only goal was the penalty score. The only other offensive point is the help from the match against Spain. It is a record that is not like Mbappe in the world.

Mbappe said "This tournament was a failure. I wanted to be a European champion, but I couldn't"It was a long year, after expressing disappointment. I want to go on vacation and rest. It will help me a lot. I definitely didn't, and we're going home. I need to rest. After that, I'll leave for a new life"He said mental recovery is needed."

Mbappe played without a mask in this match. "We made a decision before the game," he said. I was tired of the mask, so I asked the doctor if I could take it off, and the doctor told me to do whatever I wanted."

Mbappe will take a short break and fly to Madrid to make his first appearance as a Real player. Mbappe's Real 'Clothes Official' will be announced soon. Real are preparing for the most luxurious joining ceremony ever.
