Mbappe surprised many people when he did not wear a mask on the field in the match against Spain in the Euro 2024 semi-finals last night. This striker left his mark with a beautiful pass for Kolo Muani to head into Spain’s net to open the score.

However, Spain quickly scored two goals in the first half through Lamine Yamal and Dani Olmo to take a 2-1 lead. That was also the final score of the match. With this result, La Roja has won the right to reach the Euro 2024 final.

After the first half ended, the camera lens caught the image of Mbappe holding the Spain team shirt in his hand. This shows that he changed shirts with an opponent’s player.

Mbappe’s actions caused outrage on social networks. Many people believe that this is inappropriate behavior. Changing shirts during halftime in such a tense match can reduce the player’s fighting spirit. Such action should appear after the match ends.

Below are some opinions opposing Mbappe on Twitter:

“Mbappe changed shirts with his opponent during halftime. Roy Keane would be angry if he witnessed this action.”

“Why was Mbappe able to exchange shirts with the Spanish player during halftime?”.

“Did Mbappe exchange shirts with his opponent during the break between the two halves? That was a rude action. I don’t agree.”

“Mbappe and a certain Spanish player should be banned for life when they change shirts between halftime.”

“Mbappe has changed his shirt. It’s embarrassing.”

It is still unclear which Spanish player switched shirts with Mbappe. According to Sport Bible, both did not act wisely.

Thus, Mbappe said goodbye to Euro 2024 with great disappointment. During the entire tournament, the most expected striker of the French team only scored 1 goal. That was a goal from the penalty spot in the final group stage match against Poland.
