Real Madrid: Famous pundit slams Mbappé after humiliation against PSG

Kylian Mbappé came under heavy fire following Real Madrid’s crushing 4-0 defeat to PSG on Wednesday night in the Club World Cup semi-final.

A former PSG player who is now a passionate supporter and RMC pundit, Jérôme Rothen provided commentary for PSG-Real Madrid on DAZN, which exclusively broadcast the match on Wednesday evening. The ex-Parisian didn’t hold back in criticizing Kylian Mbappé for his performance.

“And here we have the classic Kylian Mbappé tonight: I run straight ahead, I push the ball forward, and I lose the ball. His performance this evening won’t go down in history. What really shocked me was how little effort Mbappé and Vinicius showed. Mbappé playing for the Ballon d’Or? Some say he’s playing for the Ballon d’Or. Seriously…” said the French pundit.
