France has received some bad news after what happened to their star Kylian Mbappe in the game against Austria in their opening match of the EURO 2024. Kylian Mbappe broke his nose during that game.
It has now been confirmed that he will not participate in the game against Netherlands which will be a very crucial game for both teams. His injury is now a major blow to the French team because he is part of the driving forces in that team.
Kylian Mbappe’s injury is also a blow to France because Virgil Van Dijk will not find the player who will keep him busy the whole game. France has a very good bench but Kylian Mbappe’s absence will be greatly felt because the team has been built around him and he is at the centre of everything.
This means that the psychological aspect of the French players will also somehow be affected. If the Netherlands players can capitalize on this, then they can attack France very well and even get all the three points that they require.
The French team should however not be worried because the legendary Olivier Giroud is fit and he will take the mantle very well and he will make his Nation proud. He has been really performing well for the country and he will prove to Didier Deschamps that he is still a top talented footballer who can still deliver at his age.
Netherlands may also lose this game if they go into the game with the mentality that they will beat France without Kylian Mbappe because they will miss him. The French players may decide to give their all so that they can win the game for Kylian Mbappe as a way of wishing him quick recovery so that he can continue with the good work that they have started at the EURO 2024.
