    WHAT HAPPENED?

    Earlier this week, Belgium posted a video on social media of Onana along with Belgian comedian Pablo Andres. In the video, the Everton midfielder was spotted insinuating that he would 'tackle Mbappe in the shin' during Belgium's clash with France. Belgium quickly deleted the video and issued an apology, however, the Real Madrid star has now fired back at Onana.

    The Belgian reporter clarified again: "Amadou Onana, our midfielder."

    THE BIGGER PICTURE

    France and Belgium haven't shown the levels that were expected of them in the group stages of the Euros in Germany. However, they will both hope to change that when they face off against each other in the last-16 clash. Mbappe personally will be hoping to return to form after an average display against Poland in the final group game.
