"Against Mbappe's scary slopes, you just look up at the sky and say: Help me. You need people around to help stop the 19-year-old, "said Rio Ferdinand, former England midfielder, on Mbappe.

Ferdinand is absolutely right. During the past month, the 19-year-old French striker has made every attacker panic because of his incredible speed, technique and fear. Before the final against Croatia, people are still waiting for Mbappe's brilliance and see him as a very hard spot to block the French.

Meanwhile, his rival Croatia will have to find a way to block the broad range of Mbappe. And perhaps the person assigned to Mbappe is none other than Strinic.

While Mbappe made the rain wind, in this tournament, Strinic play only shoulder but not prominent. The strongest evidence is that his average points per game on FIFA is only 4.6 points. Strinic has good defensive skills, tactical tactics and a wealth of battle experience, but that is not enough for a 30-year-old to join Mbappe. Remember that in the match against Belgium, the Frenchman was also locked in the right wing, but he moved very wide to occasionally escape the clutching of the enemy and shine.

Moreover, being squeezed out in extra-time matches to extra time and the recovery of the thigh injury in the semi-finals may also affect the performance of Milan players. And obviously, clinging to Mbappe is a very harsh challenge for Strinic tonight.
