The captain of the Argentine national team taught the young French striker a lesson
Argentina and France will play the final of the World Cup in Qatar, this Sunday, December 18, at the Lusail stadium, with the main ingredient of seeing Lionel Messi and Kylian Mbappé face to face. In this context, the Albiceleste captain gave a lesson to 'Donatello', who missed the American champion a few months ago.
Mbappé, who has five goals in this World Cup, was interviewed after renewing his contract with PSG and spoke about what the tournament would be like in the Middle East. The striker indicated that the main candidate to win the trophy was France and that Argentina is not up to the job, because it does not face weighty rivals in South American football (with the exception of Brazil).
