Kylian Mbappe's Euro 2024 campaign ended in disappointment as France were eliminated by Spain in the semifinals, losing 2-1. French media harshly criticized Mbappe and his teammates, with L'Equipe rating him only 3/10 and highlighting his missed late-game opportunity. Despite shedding his protective mask, Mbappe struggled with form and fitness throughout the tournament, scoring only once via a penalty. Meanwhile, Lamine Yamal stole the spotlight by becoming the youngest-ever European Championship goal-scorer, leading Spain to victory. Mbappe acknowledged the team's failure to meet their ambition of becoming European champions and plans to rest before his debut season with Real Madrid, where he will wear the No. 9 shirt. Real Madrid confirmed Mbappe’s presentation on June 16, marking the end of his tenure at PSG.
