Coming in the show "It feels good" to present the comedy "Mystery in Saint-Tropez", which will be released in theaters on July 14, Belgian comedian Virginie Hocq explains Thursday at the microphone of Anne Roumanoff to have been surprised and moved how France talked about Kylian MBappé's penalty shootout against Switzerland.

INTERVIEW

A Belgian full of empathy for a footballer for the France team is rare enough to be noted.

Among the many surprises of this Euro, the competition seems to partly erase the quarrels born of the last World Cup.

"I admit that I was sad for your player Kylian Mbappé," said Virginie Hocq, who watched the round of 16 match in which France lost on penalties against Switzerland.

"I'm disappointed that we said he missed. We didn't say that the guard was successful. It's still crazy to kick people like that! Everyone pounces on him, so that no one praise the Swiss who did a great thing. "

"Frankly, football, I don't care a bit"

The Belgian comedian adds, however, that he is not a great football expert.

"I'm very embarrassed because not long ago a reporter called me to find out what I thought about football. I got off my bike, I was shopping. Yes, my life is normal and completely. tasteless! ”she laughs.

"Frankly, I don't care a bit," she replied.

"It was not good to say that, because I see that football is unifying," admits the one who finally looked at France-Switzerland.

"And it's true that I had this little boost of empathy for the players."

And so, in particular, for Kylian Mbappé.
