Mbappé or not… While the French team will challenge Belgium this Monday in Brussels, the coach of the Red Devils, Domenico Tedesco, is strongly contested on the other side of the Ardennes. The Italian coach knows that he is in an ejection seat and intends to emerge victorious from the group of death of this Nations League with Italy and France to make an impression. “We can achieve something historic. We just took a point against Italy, that’s already positive. We must have a fantastic day.”announced the 38-year-old technician at a press conference.

A cheap feat against a France without Mbappé? Not necessarily for the Italian-German technician. “Mbappé? It doesn’t matter who plays. Look at the team they have. They can play on the left with Barcola, Thuram, Kolo Muani… But of course Mbappé has something really special”recognizes Tedesco all the same. Catastrophic in the first leg – with Mbappé already on the sidelines – the Red Devils will be keen to win in this duel which has not been successful for nine years.
