Mbappe Can Play Against The Netherlands With A Protective Mask
JAKARTA - Kylian Mbappe received a severe nose injury when France fought Austria in the first match of Group D Euro 2024, 18 June 2024.
Initially, he was feared that he would miss Les Bleus when he met the Dutch in the group's second party, June 22, 2024.
However, the French manager, Didier Deschamps, confirmed that Mbappe could delay his nose surgery until Euro 2024 was finished.
This means that Mbappe can appear in the next French matches, including the tough match against the Dutch. However, the new Real Madrid player will wear a face shield while playing.
Mbappe has also been seen practicing individually since Wednesday, June 19, 2024, before he joined akhhir's finishing training with his strikers.

Throughout the exercise, Mbappe wore a strap on his broken nose and did not follow any training section involving contact.
The problem is, French officials are still looking for the special mask. If you can't before the match against the Dutch, Mbappe is most likely absent.
"The broken nose is not the end of everything. So, he will be with us soon."
"Playing without Kylian can be difficult. He is a very important player, the captain."
"This will have an impact on us. However, for opponents, this will be a different way of playing their game."
"We certainly want him to play, but see who's on the bench. We have what it takes to replace Kylian."
"We have to rely on the group. If he wasn't there then it would be more difficult. However, I believe the great players we have in the team," said Deschamps.
Deschamps berharap Mbappe bisa dimainkan saat melawan Belanda. Sang penyerang pun tidak ada kendala dalam kondisi fisik.
Now, he just hopes that the special protective masks will be obtained soon so that Mbappe's chances of playing big.
