Kylian Mbappe has spoken publicly for the first time since France’s dramatic World Cup final defeat against Argentina with the message: “We will be back.”
Mbappe netted a stunning final hat-trick as he beat Lionel Messi to win the Golden Boot; the Paris Saint-Germain striker scored twice inside a minute of normal time before scoring another penalty in extra-time to once again level the score, and then finding the net in the shootout.
It was a sensational performance to end another superb major tournament for the Frenchman, who had spearheaded his nation’s success in Russia four years earlier with four goals and becoming the first teenager to score in a final since Pele.
