Deschamps defends Mbappe’s disappointing EURO 2024 — 'He has made enough history'
Kylian Mbappe has come under fire for his disappointing performances at EURO 2024.
He further emphasised his desire to win the championship: "I wanted to be European champion..."
Despite the disappointment, Mbappe seems determined to bounce back. "I will now go on holiday, I will rest well, it will do me a lot of good, then I will get ready to start a new life. There's a lot to do," he said.
This isn't the first time Mbappe has experienced a setback in the Euros. In 2020, France exited the tournament in the Round of 16 after a penalty shootout loss to Switzerland, with Mbappe missing the crucial penalty.
French fans will be hoping that Mbappe can learn from this experience and lead his team to glory in future tournaments.
