Wait what happened to VAR? this was outside the box.

really hope he's not hurt after that, would love to see Mbappe take over this game

I'm watching on Italian commentary and when Mbappe reached the halfway line, he said "Mbappe on his way. Mbappe against everyone..."

VAR agreed with the ref..   it started outside the box.. but the final shove to knock him down was in the box

early goal will help this game 🙂

so shouldn't he give initial foul? he fouled outside, then let go then shove inside.

france are winning the ball, but giving it right back a lot

Proper World Cup big game feel

the shove that knocked him down and ultimately stopped his goal scoring opportunity happened well within the box, so...  clearly not

Mbappe almost with another penno..   just on the edge of the box..  jesus christ he's fast..

I see it as there was an initial foul (outside of the box) that was played through and then another foul (in the box) that was called.

That should be a penalty, you shouldn't get a free foul later because someone played through a foul

This France team should be built around Mbappe but he's instead shoved out wide, required to do so much defensive work. Fuck Deschamps

Seems to be working just fine

i dont think he should be in the middle at this point. He needs to use his speed and his ability to go past players, and out wide he has more of a chance to do that (and it's working in this game so far)

That's because he's an awesome player. He's capable of causing much more damage IMO

This false 9 doesn't seem to be working for argentina.

nice ball for perez but he was clearly offside.. and smacks Umtiti in the face

don't think so, there was someone on the near side playing him on

Umtiti is a drama queen isn't he

Need to cut out that part of his game
