However, the most negative moment came in the 77th minute, when

Kylian Mbappé

went down on the pitch and left with a physical issue. Later, while on the bench, ice was placed on his right ankle.

Although there was concern, Deschamps reassured everyone by saying that he felt a slight pain, but that it is normal given the large number of matches they have been playing in a short period of time.

At the same time, Kylian said that he is fine and that it was just a knock. And, as if that were not enough, Mateta said that he was more ready than Mbappé to play the final 15 minutes.
