Fan Speaks After Mbappe Knocked Him Out During Warm-Up At World Cup

Fan Speaks After Mbappe Knocked Him Out During Warm-Up At World Cup

Kylian Mbappe

The supporter who says he was knocked out by a stray Kylian Mbappe shot during France's warm-up ahead of their semi-final clash against Morocco has spoken about his experience.

Messi Reacts To Reaching World Cup Final

As Les Bleus were preparing for their semi-final against the Atlas Lions, cameras showed Mbappe going over to a French supporter, who appeared dazed after being hit in the face by a shot of his.

The 23-year-old was seen apologising to the man, who was being held up by people around him behind one of the goals at the Al Bayt Stadium on Wednesday night.

The supporter has since spoken to French publication RMC Sport, revealing he was "completely" knocked out by the stray effort from Paris Saint-Germain's highest-paid player.

"I was on the drum and I didn't see the ball coming at all. I took it right in the face… I fell all of a sudden, I was completely knocked out," he said.

"I started hearing people say 'Kylian, Kylian, Kylian' so I saw on the videos I was shown that he came to see me, but I didn't even realize. It took me a few minutes to recover."

Mbappe was once again in good touch as the reigning world champions secured their place in the 2022 FIFA World Cup final against Lionel Messi's Argentina.

The PSG attacker was involved in both of Les Bleus' goals in their 2-0 victory, but did not add to his tally of five strikes in Qatar.
