France’s captain Kylian Mbappé thrills Super Eagles legend Sunday Oliseh

The France attacker and LOSC Lille forward, Jonathan Christian David, are presently tied for first place in Ligue 1

The former player of the Super Eagles, Sunday Oliseh, has raised his hat to Kylian Mbappé’s performance after the Paris Saint-Germain player led France to a win against the Netherlands.

The 48-year-old stated that he was blown away by the performance of the newly elected French Captain as the Blues thrashed the Netherlands by a score of four goals to none.

Dayot Upamecano extended the advantage after Antoine Griezmann had given France the lead two minutes into the game. The French striker then scored the game’s last two goals to record a brace in his first game as captain of his country.

Following this, the former Ajax player praised the France international on his social media feed for helping the French squad humiliate Ronald Koeman’s team.

“Extraordinary French captain, Kylian Mbappé totally “wowed” me last night as he led France to a total 4-0 domination of the Netherlands! Sad to see Dutch football in such a sorry state. It could easily have been a 7-0 victory.” he composed.

The attacker is anticipated to guide his team to yet another victory when the French squad travels to Aviva Stadium to tackle the Republic of Ireland in their UEFA Euro qualifiers.
