A loss in the World Cup final finally always hits differently than the other losses. When Lionel Messi achieved his dream of winning the trophy for the first time in his career, Kylian Mbappe was at the receiving end. Despite the loss, he has never lost respect for the Argentinian forward. In a viral video, the iconic jersey of the World Cup winner was framed in the home of the PSG star.

It shows how much he recognizes the greatness of La Pulga’s performance in the game. There is no doubt that the French forward is determined to reach the same level in his playing career.

Lionel Messi’s piece of greatness finds a place in the home of Kylian Mbappe

There is a popular saying greatness recognizes greatness. The phrase makes sense in the case of Kylian Mbappe and Lionel Messi. Recently, Mbappe’s mother, Fayza Lamari, did an interview. However, a particular section quickly got the attention of the fans. In the video, the jersey of Lionel Messi was seen framed in the house of the PSG star. Interestingly, it was the shirt that he wore in 2018, which probably means the Frenchman retained it on the wall despite losing the World Cup final to Argentina in 2022!

In an earlier interview, Kylian Mbappe spoke about the memories of the World Cup final loss that still haunts him. Kylian Mbappe also pointed out how he would like to forget about the loss. But he agreed that the game was a historical one for the fans. Hence, it is surprising that the jersey of the Argentinian forward has found a place.
