Everybody’s eyes were on the iconic FIFA World Cup finale between France and Argentina. To bring the reigning champions back from the dead, the 23-year-old Paris Saint-Germain forward Kylian Mbappé scored two goals in the space of 97 seconds. Unfortunately, his heroic efforts went into vain as Argentina won the game in the end.

One interesting thing that turned heads during the match was the rare photo of Mbappé donning a baseball jersey. Soon after Mbappe’s heroics on the field, baseball fans started cheering for him. However, soon as the match turned against his team, the comments on the rare picture also took a turn for the bad.

The moment Kylian Mbappé showed his soccer heroics on Qatar’s field, his wearing MLB’s LA Dodgers jersey picture showed up on Twitter. For those unversed, French forward had come to the Dodger Stadium three years ago, in June 2019. There he not only threw out the ceremonial pitch but also hung out with many players. In short, it can be said that the soccer star player indeed had a great time visiting the Dodgers ballpark.

Kylian: A star player at 23

The soccer star, Mbappé, 23, has already won a lot of domestic trophies with PSG. His ability to stand out last season in a team that included Neymar and Lionel Messi demonstrates his standing in the sport.

Mbappé is the established face of soccer’s current generation of players, and his position and impact both within and beyond the game perhaps exceed that of any other young player across the globe this year. Ever since he made his career debut internationally, he has won over twenty awards; two of which came from last night’s game.
