Before the start of the European Championship, Mbappe said at a press conference: "The European Championship is more complicated and difficult than the World Cup, all the teams are familiar with each other, and it is more difficult tactically. His statement sparked a lot of heated discussions. In particular, many Argentine fans think that Mbappe can't afford to lose, and deliberately belittle the gold content of the World Cup.

Mbappe's words not only sparked heated discussions in the fan circle, but also in the player circle. Messi has personally stood up against it, saying: "Mbappe also said that South American teams are not as strong as European teams, and everyone feels that they play in the best place. The European Championship does carry a lot of weight, but it does not include three-time World Cup winner Argentina, five-time World Cup winner Brazil, and two-time World Cup winner Uruguay. ”

Obviously, Mbappe's words made Messi not very happy, but this is also Mbappe's own personal experience, and we really can't blame him. In the World Cup, Mbappe is simply a goal. In 2018, at the age of 19, Mbappe won the World Cup with France, contributing four goals in seven games.

And in 2022, Mbappe led the team to the World Cup final again, but lost to the Argentine team led by Messi. However, Mbappe's individual performance was very explosive, and he scored eight goals in a single cup competition. In two World Cups, Mbappe won one championship and one runner-up, scoring 12 goals in 14 games. For Mbappe, the World Cup is really simple.

And in the European Championship, Mbappe's performance was very uncomfortable. From his debut at the European Championship three years ago to becoming the leader of the French team this time, Mbappe has shot 18 times in five games but still has not scored. In the match against Switzerland three years ago, Mbappe, who had 6 shots on target and 0 shots on target, missed a crucial penalty and stopped the team from reaching the round of 16.

In the first game of the European Championship three years later, he suffered a broken nose bridge against Austria, and he will not be able to return until the quarterfinals at the earliest. It was also a cup competition, and Mbappe took what he wanted in the World Cup and won the championship early. But in the European Championship, Mbappe was a frustrated. He can say that "the European Cup is harder to play than the World Cup", in fact, it is also a personal experience, not to belittle Messi and other South American stars.
