The new star of Real Madrid and the France National Team, Kylian Mbappé, did not shine last night in the Euro 2024 quarter-final against Portugal. However, the important thing was to reach the semi-finals against Spain, a goal achieved thanks in part to a magnificent performance by Mike Maignan, yet another standout in this tournament for the Milan goalkeeper.
The French goalkeeper is proving to be the extra man for Didier Deschamps' team, as confirmed by Mbappé himself to L'Equipe (relayed by Milan News) microphones after last night's match.
"He's scary. I don't have the exact explanation, but when Joao Félix shoots at the post, it's because he thinks he's facing a goalkeeper who will catch it. We've had some success, but a large part of it goes to Mike."
