PSG striker, Kylian Mbappe has revealed that it will be difficult for him to forget the pains of losing the 2022 World Cup finals to Argentina.

Despite notching a hat-trick for Didier Deschamps side in the final, Mbappe and his international team-mates came up short as Les Bleus were beaten on penalties in the showpiece game in Qatar.

Speaking after scoring a 96th-minute penalty he had won himself, the 24-year-old acknowledged the pain of France’s loss in Doha will stay with him forever, but stressed he does not feel his team-mates should pay the price for those emotions.

“I’ll never digest it,” Metro.co.uk quoted Mbappe as saying.

“But like I told my coach and teammates, there’s no reason that my club should pay for a defeat with my national team, it’s two different situations.

“The message was simple -it was to show that, whatever goes on with the national team, PSG is a separate thing and I’m still determined to bring trophies to the capital.”
