First Division A Qualification Overview

Henry eksklusif: Mbappe dihancurkan karena standar tingginya.

Thierry Henry membela penyerang Real Madrid, Kylian Mbappe, dengan menegaskan bahwa rekan senegaranya itu telah mendapat kritik yang tidak adil sepanjang kariernya karena standar tinggi yang diharapkan darinya. Mbappe naik daun bersama AS Monaco sebelum pindah ke Paris Saint-Germain dengan transfer senilai ratusan juta euro dan memenangkan Piala Dunia bersama Prancis sebagai pemain inti saat masih remaja. Hingga saat ini, Mbappe telah mencetak 365 gol dalam 460 penampilan klub, sementara ia juga mencetak 55 gol dalam 94 penampilan untuk Prancis, hanya kalah dari Olivier Giroud dalam daftar pencetak gol terbanyak sepanjang masa Les Bleus. Meskipun meraih banyak prestasi, Mbappe belum pernah memenangkan Liga Champions sebagai pemain, dan meskipun dijagokan untuk meraih banyak penghargaan Ballon d'Or di era setelah duopoli Lionel Messi dan Cristiano Ronaldo, ia belum pernah memenangkan Golden Ball untuk dirinya sendiri.

Trent memuji Valverde sebagai 'pemain paling underrated di dunia'.

Bintang Real Madrid, Trent Alexander-Arnold, memuji Federico Valverde dengan menyebutnya sebagai "pemain paling underrated" di dunia sepak bola setelah penampilan gemilangnya melawan Manchester City. Pemain internasional Uruguay itu menjadi sorotan utama saat Los Blancos meraih kemenangan telak 3-0 di leg pertama babak 16 besar Liga Champions di Bernabeu.

Berbicara pada ulang tahunnya yang ke-38, pemain Kroasia itu merefleksikan dampak yang telah diberikan oleh mantan rekan setimnya terhadap olahraga ini, mencatat bahwa pengaruh Messi melampaui rivalitas klub dan batas-batas negara.
