Kylian Mbappé Suffers Broken Nose in France's Euro 2024 Victory
Fractured Nose Sidelines Star Forward
Concerns Mount over Mbappé's Fitness
Paris Saint-Germain and France superstar Kylian Mbappé suffered a fractured nose during the defending World Cup champions' 1-0 victory over Austria in Euro 2024 on Monday. The injury occurred in a collision with Austrian defender Martin Hinteregger in the second half of the match.
Mbappé was forced to leave the field with blood streaming from his nose, and tests confirmed the extent of the injury. He is expected to undergo further assessments to determine the severity of the fracture and the potential impact on his participation in upcoming matches.
The news of Mbappé's injury is a major blow to France, who are already without several key players due to injury. The forward is widely considered one of the best young players in the world and is a key part of Didier Deschamps' plans for Euro 2024.
Mbappé's absence would be a significant loss for France, who are aiming to defend their World Cup title and add the European Championship to their trophy cabinet. The team will hope that the injury is not serious and that Mbappé is able to return to action as soon as possible.
Meanwhile, Mbappé has expressed his disappointment at the injury but has vowed to return stronger. In a social media post, he wrote, "Tough night but victory is always important. Thanks for the messages. I'll be back soon, stronger than ever."
