ITV Sport pundit Graeme Souness has slammed Leeds United defender Rasmus Kristensen after his poor performance against France in Denmark's second group stage match at this year's World Cup.
Kristensen hasn't enjoyed fantastic form at the tournament so far after being given a 'two' rating by Danish newspaper Ekstra Bladet and didn't have his finest showing against the reigning world champions either.
Kristensen was arguably at fault as he was the one marking Kylian Mbappe for his winning goal with just four minutes left in normal time.

Before Souness gave his input however, Rangers legend Ally McCoist noted while commentating: "I don’t know how many times I tell you, he’s [Kylian Mbappe] on the move and he deserves his goal. He’s just alert and he moves a split second ahead of everybody, and it’s too late for Rasmus Kristensen to react."
But Adrien Rabiot's defending for the Denmark equaliser came under fire from Souness before he turned onto Kristensen following Mbappe's winner.
"It was more of the same for the winning goal, ball-watching from Kristensen.
"Keen your eye on the Danish player, Kristensen, at the bottom here. He has a look so he knows where Mbappe is and that’s the only look he has. He just loses him. He’s got to be more aware of what’s going on round about him."
