NFL legend Tom Brady has shared his admiration and sympathy for France superstar Kylian Mbappe after his World Cup final heroics counted for nothing in Sunday's defeat to Argentina.
Both Brady and Mbappe came out on the losing side this weekend, albeit the stakes were much higher for the Paris Saint Germain star in Qatar and his teammates as they came within a penalty shootout of winning a second straight World Cup.
The 24-year-old phenom scored a hat-trick, including a sensational volley, to help his team come from behind twice and draw 3-3 after extra time at the Lusail Stadium and he converted his penalty in the shootout. But misses from the spot from Aurélien Tchouameni and Kingsley Coman saw Didier Deschamps' side lose 4-2 on penalties, agonisingly missing out on back-to-back World Cup triumphs.
