After missing France’s previous match against the Netherlands due to a broken nose, Kylian Mbappé is set to make his return to the starting lineup for France’s upcoming Euro 2024 Group D game against Poland. Despite concerns about his vision being affected by wearing a mask for protection, Mbappé has been deemed fit to play by manager Didier Deschamps.
Mbappé, who suffered the injury in France’s opening match against Austria, did not require surgery but has been wearing a mask to protect his face during training sessions. The 25-year-old forward has been making steady progress in his recovery and even managed to score two goals in a recent practice fixture behind closed doors.
With victories over Austria and a draw with the Netherlands, France has already secured a spot in the round of 16 in Euro 2024. The team will be looking to clinch the top spot in their group by putting in a strong performance against Poland and bettering the Netherlands’ scoreline against Austria.
On the other hand, Poland has already been eliminated from Euro 2024 following losses in their first two matches. Despite being out of contention for the knockout stages, Poland will be looking to salvage some pride with a positive result against France in their final group game.
The return of Mbappé to the French starting lineup will come as a boost for the team as they look to secure their place at the top of Group D. With the talented forward back in action, France will be hoping to continue their strong start to the tournament and build momentum heading into the knockout stages of Euro 2024.
