In the first match of the European Championship, Mbappé once again broke his nose in a header duel with an opponent. After that, in order to continue fighting in the European Championship, the Frenchman chose to postpone the surgery, and he also became the “Mask Man” to continue fighting in the European Championship. However, this is not good news for Real Madrid.
According to French coach Deschamps, Mbappé will likely have to continue wearing a mask after the European Championship, and this situation could last for weeks or even months, not to mention the recovery time needed after surgery. Deschamps knows well the impact of wearing a mask on Mbappé: “This kind of mask will affect the player. Although he keeps cleaning the sweat on it on the field, it will still have some impact. Moreover, in terms of vision, you can see clearly in the front, but it’s difficult on the sides and diagonally.”
Mbappé himself has also talked about the impact of the mask: “It’s really scary to play with a mask on. It restricts my vision, and then there’s the constant sweating. You have to clean that sweat yourself. But you can’t play without a mask, I really hate playing with a mask, it’s uncomfortable. Although I’ve improved it five or six times, it’s still uncomfortable.”
After the European Championship, La Liga is about to start. Mbappé will still need to wear a mask for several months, which is undoubtedly bad news for Real Madrid.
