Mbappé criticized for masked play!Former teammates Don't grasp its difficulty

Wearing a mask while playing football: will it affect performance? This question can be asked of French superstar Mbappé, who recently wore a mask at the European Championship. Since donning the mask, his attacking efficiency has dropped to its lowest point in international competitions. Even his national team mates have stated that the mask has severely restricted Mbappé's visibility, impacting his performance.

During the current European Championship, Mbappé sustained a nasal injury in the first group stage match after causing an own goal for the opponent, forcing him off the field. Consequently, he missed France's subsequent group stage match, but fortunately, France managed to advance despite not achieving their desired ranking, only progressing as runners-up in their group, thereby entering a tough half of the tournament featuring traditional powerhouses like Spain, Germany, and Portugal.

Mbappé returned quickly from injury but not unscathed, needing to wear a protective mask over his nasal injury to continue playing. However, this mask has significantly hindered his performance, as apart from a penalty goal, he has failed to score. France's offensive power has also markedly declined, prompting questions about whether Mbappé's performance has been greatly affected by his injury.

In response to public scrutiny, Mbappé's former teammate Muani has come to his defense, emphasizing the difficulties of playing with a mask. Muani himself has experienced playing with a mask, which severely limits a player's field of vision, even causing him to feel as though he can't see anything at all. Muani urges everyone not to be too harsh on Mbappé, noting that Mbappé has led France numerous times before and now, when he faces difficulties, everyone should rally to support him. After all, France's further advancement in the tournament will heavily rely on Mbappé's outstanding performance.

Mbappé's strength is beyond doubt. His ability to withstand running alongside the French team proves his power. Without Mbappé, France would definitely not go far in these European Championships.

Wearing a mask indeed affects a player's vision and performance, as evidenced by Mbappé's case.

"Mbappé has really had a stroke of bad luck. At the prime age for playing in the European Championship, he had the chance to showcase his skills and possibly win the tournament and the Ballon d'Or. However, in the first match, he injured his nose, affecting his performance for the national team and requiring surgery that will impact his club's preseason preparations. So far, Mbappé has only scored one goal in the tournament, and that was from a penalty. With this performance, combined with his club's achievements, it's likely he'll miss out on the Ballon d'Or again this year.

Mbappé wants to score goals and lead his team to victory more than anyone else. But his form is what it is, and playing with a mask is certainly affecting him. It's probably his first time wearing such a thing while playing, so it's understandable that he's not used to it. However, as a top-tier player, his ability to adjust is strong. After three matches, he should be finding his rhythm. If he still doesn't perform well against Spain and can't lead his team to victory, there won't be any more excuses.

Spain's defense is quite formidable, so it's not easy for Mbappé to break through and score. It's likely that France and Mbappé's journey in the European Championship will end here. Hopefully, he can soon have surgery on his nose and recover well without it affecting his form. After all, next season he'll need to perform well for Real Madrid in multiple competitions, score more goals, and contend for the Ballon d'Or."

Who are the people criticizing him? If someone objectively analyzes the effect of playing with a mask, we can understand that, as it's purely a technical issue. But Mbappé playing through injury and wearing a mask shows a fearless fighting spirit that makes everyone admire him. Regardless of his performance on the field, no normal person would mindlessly attack and criticize him. So, I say, those people are just mentally ill lunatics! The world is a murky place, full of shameless trash. Even a football match can reveal their true nature! That's my opinion!

Actually, the day I saw Mbappé wearing a mask, I couldn't help but laugh a bit... lol. But Mbappé is truly dedicated. Wearing a mask definitely limits his field of vision and clarity. Fans shouldn't be so greedy and expect too much.
