Cristian Romero has explained why he yelled into Kylian Mbappe's face after Lionel Messi scored during last month's thrilling World Cup final.
Messi, 35, broke multiple records in the final on his way to finally getting his hands on the trophy that had previously eluded him during his career, but the superstar was beaten to the Golden Boot by his club team-mate, who netted a stunning hat-trick in the showpiece event at the Lusail Stadium which may be remembered as the tournament’s greatest ever final.
The final was understandably emotional with Mbappe directing the celebration of his second goal in front of Messi, as Les Bleus initially staged a remarkable comeback which eventually forced the game to penalties – in which Argentina triumphed.
