DBasia.news –  PSG striker, Kylian Mbappe, mimicked the actions of Argentine legend, Diego Maradona, scoring goals by hand. Mbappe’s action was done when PSG played against Stade Reims in the French League Cup semifinals, Thursday (1/23/2020).

Quoted from Sky Sports, Mbappe tried to score a goal with his hand against Reims in the 90th minute. Mbappe’s ‘Hand of God’ began when the French player took individual action on the Reims’ goal.

However, he received a tight escort from Axel Disasi. As a result Mbappe fell. In the midst of the situation, Mbappe deliberately used his hand to push the ball towards the empty goal. Unfortunately, the referee who led the fight only rewarded a yellow card for Mbappe.

Interestingly, receiving a yellow card and deemed of being unsportsmanlike. Mbappe only smiled when he received the yellow card from the referee. Not only that, on his personal Twitter account, he also responded to a smile of a tweet from an account that discussed the action.

Not only Mbappe who acted against Reims. His colleague on the front lines, Neymar, was also in the spotlight in this fight. Neymar did an indecent action by baiting with his behind.

This action also outwitted the Reims player who escorted him. But Neymar’s action also received the spotlight from the public.
