According to Euronews, Mbappe was taken away from the Düsseldorf Arena in an ambulance after colliding with the shoulder of Austrian defender Danso at the end of yesterday's match. This injury has put his continued participation in the European Championships in doubt.

It is known that the initial examination of Mbappe in the hospital was reassuring. Doctors decided not to operate on the footballer.

"Kylian Mbappe received a fracture of the nose, he returned to the camp of the French national team. He will be treated over the next few days, but he will not undergo surgery in the near future. A mask will be made so that Mbappe can expect to return to competition after a period of treatment," the publication quotes the official statement of the French Football Federation.

At the same time, the coach of the team Deschamps said that if Mbappe can not continue to perform in the tournament, the team will fight for victory without him.

Recall, the next match at Euro 2024 the French national team will play on Friday, June 21. Their opponent will be the team of the Netherlands.
