Mbappé Admits He’ll Never Rewatch 2022 World Cup Final: ‘It Might Awaken Some Demons’
French captain Kylian Mbappé says he has never watched the 2022 World Cup final between France and Argentina back on video. The match ended 3-3 in regular time before Argentina won 4-2 on penalties. At just 23 years old, Mbappé became the youngest player to feature in two World Cup finals and the only one to score a hat-trick and still lose. He also won the Golden Boot but remains haunted by the shootout defeat. In a recent interview with Sorare, he called that final “the greatest” in entertainment value but admitted revisiting it could “awaken some demons.” He has chosen to leave the memory as it happened on the field. Mbappé’s performance in Lusail broke multiple records, including scoring twice in 95 seconds to level the game. He now aims to climb FIFA’s all-time scoring chart as France prepares for their 2026 opener against Senegal.
