🚨Thierry Henry on Kylian Mbappé’s masterclass and Senegal’s disasterclass as France beat Senegal 3-1 at the 2026 FIFA World Cup:
🗣️ “That was a real masterclass from Kylian Mbappé.
When France needed someone to take control of the game, he stepped forward and delivered exactly what the team needed.
People love to talk about systems, tactics, and structure, and yes, those things matter.
But at this level, games are often decided by moments of brilliance — and Mbappé provided them all night.
Every time he received the ball, you could feel Senegal drop deeper and become more cautious.
His movement was intelligent, his pace was frightening, and his finishing was clinical.
What stands out most is his mentality.
There is no fear in his game.
No hesitation.
Just confidence and belief every time he steps onto the pitch.
That is what separates very good players from truly world-class ones.
But I also have to say it — from Senegal, that was a disasterclass in certain moments defensively.
You cannot switch off like that against players of this level.
You give Mbappé even half a yard and you get punished.
There were moments where the structure just collapsed and they stopped dealing with basic situations properly.
At a World Cup, that will hurt you badly.
This wasn’t just a good France performance.
It was a combination of brilliance from France and costly mistakes from Senegal.
Mbappé takes the headlines, and rightly so.
But Senegal will look back at this and know they made life far too easy at key moments.
And at this level, that is exactly what top teams punish you for.”

Franchement c’est fort.
Arriver à faire rire une salle aux éclats dans une langue que tu ne maîtrisais pas quelques années auparavant, et avec une telle fluidité, ça représente un travail monstrueux.
Bravo @kevadamsss 👏
🚨🎙| Victor Osimhen reveals meeting with Cristiano Ronaldo:
"When the Portuguese was still playing for Juventus. After the match, he revealed that he had approached CR7:
🗣| 'I said: "Cris, I want to take a photo with you." And he replied: "Sure, go to the locker room."'
The moment, however, required patience. While waiting, Osimhen was approached by Buffon, who warned that Ronaldo was working out. 'I waited almost an hour. He was still training.'
When he finally met him, Osimhen was impressed:
'I looked at his legs and veins, he looked like he was 25 years old. He said: "Good game, keep it up," and congratulated me. He's a great person.' ❤
