A three-time world champion, a five-time world champion, and a two-time champion from Uruguay were left out of the Euro Cup, he told ESPN, despite the fact that it is a highly important competition where the greatest are.

I wouldn’t dare call it the most challenging since there are so many world winners in the field. In most cases, all of the world champions compete in the World Cup. “Becoming a world champion is everyone’s dream.”

After winning the World Cup and the Nations League with France, Mbappe expressed his intention to complete the set in an interview with CNN.

“I want to win the Euros,” he boasted. Truthfully, I must confess. I got the World Cup trophy. I was the Nations League champion. In spite of my best efforts with the national team, that was the only one that failed to recognize my contributions.

My goal is to come out on top here. This is my first competition in the role of captain, so it is very meaningful to me personally and to the nation as a whole. We strive to make them proud. It’s yet another chance for me to shape my nation’s narrative.

“Of course, we were hurt, to see that you’re close to something… ” in response to a question regarding his unhappiness with the 2022 World Cup. Right next to each other. Quite remarkable. Something significant in history.

Except for us, everyone else really enjoyed the game. We were not pleased with that, but it is a component of the game. Now that it’s in the record and we know what to do if we play in the final again, I can’t help but smile whenever I watch the game on tape. We need to play every game without reacting.
