The Qatar World Cup finals on December 18 (local) will be the focus of much attention as Argentina, seeking its first world championship in 36 years, and France, aiming to become the third nation in history to win back-to-back titles for the first time in 60 years, clash.
A comment made by France’s supreme treasure, Kylian Mbappe, has been attracting a lot of attention in the past.
The matchup between the two countries, both of which boast world-class talents, is expected to be a fierce battle, and the media in various countries are already sending out articles from all perspectives, fueling expectations for the big match. In the midst of all this, a comment made by France’s greatest treasure, Kylian Mbappe, in the past has been secretly attracting attention.
In an interview with the Brazilian edition of TNT Sports, an Argentine broadcaster with a network throughout South America, the monster attacker, who signed a new major contract with Paris Saint-Germain in May of this year that will run through June 2025, was asked, “Which team will be the favorite to win the World Cup in Qatar this year? When asked to name his top five teams to win the World Cup in Qatar this year, he replied, “Well, of course, the number one is France.
The first team, of course, is France. I would say France, of course, and then some European teams. We have the advantage of always playing at a high level. For example, the UEFA Nations League. When it comes to the World Cup, we will be ready. But Argentina and Brazil don’t have that advantage. In the past, the Europeans have always won.
Mbappe also stated that soccer is not as advanced in South America as it is in Europe. He may have been speaking frankly as a man who had studied in Europe, but his comments quickly went viral. His comment was quickly spread and caused quite a stir, with players from Argentina and Brazil, who were ridiculed for having “no advantage,” also responding to his comment.
And now, coincidentally, Argentina, led by Lionel Messi, who is also Mbappe’s colleague at Paris SG, has won the finals of this tournament. Therefore, many in the media saw this as an opportunity to change the French national team’s view of the French midfielder. The Spanish newspaper Marca summarized the history of the 23-year-old’s comments and declared, “Argentina must settle for Mbappe’s disrespectful comments disrespecting South American soccer. Then, in light of their loss to France in the first round of the final tournament in Russia four years ago, he incited, “Now is the time to let go of the desire for revenge.
The final of this year’s tournament has been highly anticipated in every way possible. What will be the outcome of the big match that the world is eagerly awaiting?
