The most titled Russian tennis player Yevgeny Kafelnikov paid tribute to the talent of the French striker Kylian Mbappe, who scored a hat-trick in the Argentina-France World Cup final.
On Sunday, December 18, the French team lost in the World Cup final to Argentina – 3:3, on pen. 2:4. Mbappe, in addition to three goals from the game, scored in the post-match penalty shootout.
– Incredible ending! At first, until the 78th minute, Argentina dominated. And what happened next, I do not know how to describe! Surprised how France quickly turned the game around.
There was no doubt that the French had to win. Yes, they had a chance. Especially in the last minutes to go ahead and make the score 4:3. Se la vie! Mbappe is a legend! Three goals in one match. Talent! Kafelnikov told Sport24.
