Although France advanced to the semi-finals, Mbappe did not perform at his best in this game. Mbappe lost his way in the second half of the game and may have been affected by a nose injury. However, he is still an important offensive force for the French team and I believe he will have a chance to prove himself in the next games. Next, the French team will continue to compete in the European Cup as the semi-finals, and they will face more powerful opponents. This game showed us the French team's offensive scoring problem. They failed to score in open battles, which may become a problem they need to overcome in the next games. Although Mbappe is currently facing some difficulties, he has excellent game skills and intelligence. I believe he can overcome the difficulties and continue to contribute to the French team. For the French team, they need to summarize the shortcomings in this game and actively adjust their tactics to achieve better results in the next game.
