The waters are churning in France. The elimination of the French national team as a matter of Switzerland in the quarterfinals of the European Championship still stings. In the neighboring country, criticism of Mbappé for missing the penalty, Deschamps for his approaches throughout the tournament, and several players for his low level are not intensified.
Proof of the tension between the players and their surroundings is what happened after the match against Switzerland between several relatives of French players. And it is that according to reveals ‘RMC Sport’ Adrien Rabiot’s mother, Veronique, angrily fought with the families of Paul Pogba and Kylian Mbappé after the elimination of France, specifically just after the PSG forward missed the last and decisive penalty of the batch.
This was the tense moment
According to these reports, Veronique Rabiot asked aloud how Pogba had lost the ball, which ultimately led to Switzerland’s draw in injury time. He also had time to tell Mbappé’s father that his son should be less arrogant, and all this caused that tense confrontation between the families. The fight between Rabiot’s mother lasted almost 20 minutes in the stands of the Bucharest stadium, which also attacked several journalists according to the French press.
There were not only tense moments in the stands, because on the pitch Rabiot and Pogba also got involved as a result of the latter’s loss of the ball in the tie play. When he lost that ball, Rabiot made waves with his arms at his partner and that led to a tense discussion between the two that ended up cutting Deschamps, calming a Pogba very upset by Rabiot’s reproaches. “You had to calm down a bit,” said Pogba’s coach. “We had to stay calm because there was extra time to play.”
