THE BIGGER PICTURE: The pre-match incident did not appear to distract Mbappe as France went on to beat Morocco 2-0. Mbappe did not score but was involved in both goals. Theo Hernandez opened the scoring in the fifth minute before substitute Randal Kolo Muani finished Morocco off with a little over 10 minutes of normal time remaining.
WHAT NEXT FOR MBAPPE? The Paris Saint-Germain superstar will come up against team-mate Lionel Messi in Sunday’s final when France take on Argentina.
