Kylian Mbappe would not be playing again for the international window after he got injury from scoring the winner goal in the Türkiye vs France 0-1 showdown.
At 67th minute, the Real Madrid’s striker utilised a pass from Michael Olise to make his country proud in Turkey. However, he was limping immediately and couldn’t perform much any longer. He was replaced within five minutes.
Unfortunately, that was the first time Zinedine Zidane is managing senior game apart from Real Madrid. And his disappointment was clear.
“Unfortunately, it doesn’t look good. I think he’ll have to go back,” said ex-Real Madrid boss Zidane.
“We’re not going to take any risks. He has swelling in the knee. It’s not encouraging,” Zidane said.
