In the European League semi-finals held in the early morning of June 6, France lost to Spain 4-5 away, and unfortunately stopped in the semi-finals. Although Mbappe scored a goal for the French team, the team's overall performance fluctuated greatly and ultimately failed to hold on to the game. After the game, French captain Mbappe expressed strong dissatisfaction with some of the referee's penalty and admitted that although the team has made progress, it still needs to be summarized.

Mbappe questioned the stop-off time schedule

"I do not agree with the referee's judgment on stop-off time." Mbappe said in an interview, "But if I say a few more words, everyone will think that I am just venting my emotions. When the referee announces that there are only 5 minutes of stop-off time, in theory we should play these five minutes."

Mbappe's speech reflects his dissatisfaction with the rhythm control of the final stage of the game. He and the French team saw hope of equalization for a time, but failed to further rewrite the score within a limited time.

In addition to criticizing the referee, Mbappe also analyzed the reasons for the French team's defeat in this game: "When we were excited, I would say that we played well. We created some wonderful cooperation in the game that has not been seen in a long time."

"But I lost two goals in the first 10 minutes of the first half and repeated the same mistake in the second half. We did not maintain enough stability in the whole game, but we did make progress compared to before."

Although there were personnel rotations on the French team's defense line and some players were in poor condition. , but Mbappe refused to use this as an excuse for failure: "We are all elite players, and we cannot explain all this with injuries or absence. We must face the problem."

"Of course, we are all angry and disappointed." The Real Madrid striker said bluntly, "But we must learn from it and keep moving forward."

Spain advanced to the final three times in a row, and will face Portugal with Portugal with this soul-stirring victory. With this soul-stirring victory, Spain entered the UEFA League final for the third time and will usher in the Iberian derby against Portugal in the early morning of June 9.

For Mbappe, this is another experience of passing the championship. Yamal's outstanding performance once again became the focus of the game, overshadowing the French superstar.
