Mbappe upset after Lewandoski hit his broken nose

Robert Lewandowski appeared to hit Kylian Mbappe’s nose during France’s clash against Poland on Tuesday . Both players scored from the penalty spot, ensuring their sides earned a point each in the last group-stage game.

France has advanced to the next stage, where they will face the Group E runners-up, with the possibility of playing Portugal in the quarterfinals.

Kylian Mbappe was clearly distressed after Robert Lewandowski struck him in the nose during the final Group D match between France and Poland.

This marked Mbappe’s first start for France in the tournament since breaking his nose in a game against Austria, during which he wore a protective mask to safeguard his injury.

A video circulating on social media, shows the ex-PSG star displeased with the incident, appearing to criticize the former Bayern Munich star.

The clash occurred towards the end of the game, with the 25-year-old removing his mask and holding his nose, protesting the challenge.

As Lewandowski shielded the ball, Mbappe attempted to tackle him from behind, resulting in the Poland striker’s arm catching Mbappe’s nose.

Although there seemed to be minimal contact, the France captain was noticeably upset by Lewandowski’s actions.

However, it was all hugs at full time, as the duo made up moments after Mbappe expressed his frustration.
