Despite Bradley Barcola’s early opening goal, France was logically overturned by Italy on Friday evening at the Parc des Princes (1-3), in the Nations League group stage. A match that most of the French players missed. Beside himself by the attitude of his teammates, Mike Maignan lost his temper and let out a huge rant in the locker room after the game. Kylian Mbappé didn’t say a word.
Just like the rest of his teammates present during this muscular speech from the French goalkeeper, the French captain did not flinch. According to The Teamwho recounts the scene this Saturday, there was total silence in the locker room, while Mike Maignan was openly exasperated by the attitude of his team towards the Italians. The media cited witnesses who described the AC Milan player as ” disappointed ” And ”
annoyed by certain attitudes “, who deplored the ”
starlet behavior ” of some.
An attitude that raises questions
And for The Teamsome of the criticisms were aimed at nothing more than a few of the supposed executives of the Blues.
It’s hard not to see a stone in Mbappé’s garden. “, the authors of the article said before adding that ” The indolent attitude of the captain of the Blues, during the warm-up, as in the second half, did not go unnoticed ” An attitude that some of the journalists present at the press conference on Thursday also felt, sometimes with a certain astonishment.
The storm therefore raged within the French locker room and after the storm, neither Kylian Mbappé nor Antoine Griezmann spoke, the media added: ” A total silence was imposed. » Kylian Mbappé was obviously not the only one targeted by Mike Maignan’s words. Antoine Griezmann and the Blues collective were also called to order. It remains to be seen whether this outburst will have consequences on Monday against Belgium. Let’s hope for the Blues that they will be beneficial to them.
