• The behavior of Kylian Mbappé was not very appreciated Wednesday night in Metz.

  • The Blues striker was close to scoring a goal gag on a ball that he should have returned cleanly to his opponents.

  • “He would have better behave differently if he wants to be loved,” Lorraine coach Frédéric Antonetti tackled just after the game.

At the Saint-Symphorien stadium in Metz,

It would have been a stain for his image of a nice, well-behaved boy… Kylian Mbappé was close to causing a scandal in Metz on Wednesday evening.

Not on a fault, nor on a bad gesture, but on a normally harmless game action.

We then entered the last ten minutes of a close meeting.

The Parisians were held in check (1-1) and pushed (gently) to win.

Even if it meant getting a little irritated when their opponents were trying to gain time.

So far nothing abnormal in a suspenseful football match.

Then in the 83rd minute, Maïga sent the ball into touch when he saw his partner Boulaya on the ground.

Short stoppage of play before the garnet playmaker gets up.

On the throw-in, Mbappé should then have given the ball back to Messins ... but did it quite clumsily.

About 35 meters on the left, the attacker sent a long bell-shaped ball in the direction of the opposing goal.

Sufficiently powerful and framed to… lob Oukidja who had gone out of his way!

Surprised, the Metz goalkeeper then managed a parade to divert on his crossbar and avoid the second goal of PSG.

End of the story ?

Not really because the Algerian international, known to be hot-blooded, then headed, balloon under his arm, in the direction of Mbappé to explain his way of thinking.

Before being stopped by the referee.

Facing him, the Parisian player seemed from afar wanting to apologize with a smile and pleaded incomprehension.

“He would benefit from being more humble.

"

The two met again at the end of the match, for a new muscular exchange.

Just after the goal of deliverance signed Hakimi in stoppage time (1-2, 90th + 5), the world champion came to chamber Oukidja before going to celebrate the victory with his partners.

What did he say to her?

Lip reading experts were in the midst of a debate last night.

Still, that was enough to re-annoy the keeper, beside himself, who ran in the direction of the Parisian group ... from where he was driven back by Neymar.

He then had to be calmed down by several of his teammates and even Mauricio Pochettino.

The behavior of the French prodigy obviously did not please the Metz team.

“He would have better behave differently if he wants to be loved,” Lorraine coach Frédéric Antonetti tackled just after the game.

“I love this player but he would benefit from being more humble.

And maybe to make the ball go softer.
