Mbappe surprised many when he did not wear a mask on the field in the Euro 2024 semi-final match against Spain last night. The striker left his mark with a beautiful pass for Kolo Muani to head the ball into the Spanish 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 won the right to enter the final of Euro 2024.

After the first half ended, the camera lens caught Mbappe holding a Spain team shirt in his hand. This shows that he had exchanged shirts with a player of the opposing team.

Mbappe’s actions caused outrage on social media. Many people thought it was inappropriate behavior. Changing shirts during halftime, in such a tense match, can reduce the figҺting spirit of the players. Such actions should appear after the match ends.

Here are some of the comments against Mbappe on Twitter:

“Mbappe swapped shirts with his opponent at half-time. Roy Keane would be furious if he saw this.”

“Why was Mbappe able to swap shirts with the Spanish player at halftime?”.

“Mbappe swapped shirts with his opponent at half-time? That was rude. I don’t agree.”

“Mbappe and a certain Spanish player should be banned for life for swapping shirts at half-time.”

“Mbappe has changed his shirt. What a shame.”

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

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