Kylian Mbappé struggles with World Cup defeat: “You will never digest it”

Kylian Mbappé has not yet come to terms with the World Cup defeat by Argentina.

“I think you’ll never digest that,” admitted the French superstar after his return to league life with Paris Saint-Germain.

“I tried to come back with the best possible energy and to be as positive as possible. I didn’t play a crazy game but I kept believing in myself and pushing because I knew that out of nowhere you could still turn the tide, and we did that very late in the game,” said the 24-year-old.

The World Cup top scorer gave PSG a converted penalty kick in the sixth minute of added time in the home game against second-bottom Racing Strasbourg to make it 2-1 (1-0).

Just ten days earlier, the striker had lost the World Cup final in Qatar 4-2 on penalties to Argentina with France.
