About Mbappe’s triumph in the second place
Only the online edition mentions Mbappe’s triumph in Dubai, but not the trophy for the PSG striker, but his statement about the idea of a World Cup every two years. “Mbappe sent a message to the world that it was a terrible idea,” write journalists, adding that the French was unanimous with Robert Lewandowski, who was also awarded in Qatar. – At the moment we play 60 matches a year. We love to play, but that would be just too much – said Mbappe.
For sports.fr, it was also more important what Mbappe talked about – about the World Cup every two years and the upcoming competition with Real Madrid in the Champions League, with which the French forward is still connected. Similarly for the journalists of the French Eurosport, for whom the Mbappe statuette turned out to be secondary information. Franceinfo.sport also puts Mbappe in the second row, describing stadium restrictions caused by the coronavirus epidemic as the main topic.
Maxifoot also gave Mbappe only a short note, pointing to a great season for the French – 25 goals in 53 games for the national team. But the information about the gala in Dubai has long since fallen in the hierarchy – among others, rumors about the transfer of Arkadiusz Milik from Marseille to Juventus.
