Millions around the world were excited to see Roger Federer when he played. And that also included the soccer club, Paris Saint-Germain’s forward, and French FIFA World Cup champion Kylian Mbappe. Mbappe has made a name for himself by being one of the best soccer players in the world right now. Nonetheless, Federer once tagged him wrongly on Twitter and even went on to explain his mistake in a hilarious way.

In Swiss Maestro’s defense, who can blame him? He accepts not being the most efficient guy on the social media circuit.

Roger Federer once tagged Kylian Mbappe wrongly on Twitter

In 2019, Federer posted a photo where he was excited to meet Mbappe. But things took a funny turn when Federer tagged him wrongly on Twitter. He even went on to state, “I tried but messed up by tagging the correct one, I think anyhow,” on his Twitter to give an explanation of the situation.

The Swiss Maestro has proved himself quite a lot of times on the court, however, social media still remains an unexplored field for him. He went on to tweet, “social media is a funny place.” If Federer says it, who are we to deny it?
