The image was surprising. After his goal against Celta de Vigo (5-2), Kylian Mbappé had an astonishing celebration. The Bondynois pointed to the Real Madrid crest, before saying “no” with his finger, and saying a few words.

His gesture meant that we do not whistle at a player who wears the colors of the club.
