It was a heartbreaking loss for all of France when Les Bleus fell in Sunday’s World Cup final against Argentina. The French national team rallied from a two-goal deficit but fell in penalty kicks in a match for the ages.
Perhaps no one gave more than star forward Kylian Mbappé, who scored a hat trick in the loss. He’s just the second player in history to score a hat trick in the World Cup final. Only England’s Geoff Hurst previously had accomplished the feat, leading his team to victory against West Germany in 1966.
Once the magnitude of the match settled in for Mbappé, he tweeted a simple message to his fans Monday morning.
