Kylian Mbappe apologises for World Cup semi-final warm-up incident


 

Kylian Mbappe has apologised after hitting a fan with a wayward shot during the warm-up of the World Cup semi-final between France and Morocco.

Mbappe along with many of his team-mates made it to their second consecutive World Cup final on Wednesday night, beating Morocco by two goals to nil.

Their victory delighted the relatively few French fans in attendance - with them heavily outnumbered by Moroccan supporters - but one wasn't so happy with Mbappe earlier that night.

During the warm-up for the match, the PSG player missed the target with one of his shots and the ball flew into the stands.

Unfortunately, it found the face of a France supporter sitting in one of the front rows and the man looked to be in some pain after being hit by it.

Mbappe noticed this and climbed the advertising hoardings to check up on him himself, patting him on the arm.

Remaining dazed, the fan didn't initially realise who it was that was doing so as he received help from those sat next to him. Once he realised and looked at Mbappe, the forward apologised again before returning to the pitch.

The 23-year-old would have no doubt cheered the man up by making both France goals possible in the win, and will do so even more if he can lead his country to a second World Cup triumph in a row.

To do that, he'll have the get the better of Paris Saint-Germain team-mate Lionel Messi who is looking to win the tournament for the first time in his career. With it being his last chance to do so, the stakes couldn't be higher.
