The international break has ended on a high note for France, who defeated Brazil and Colombia in friendly matches as they gear up for the much-anticipated 2026 FIFA World Cup.
Real Madrid’s talisman, Kylian Mbappe, was on target against Brazil, as he weaved into the box before delicately lobbing the ball over Ederson to score a beautiful opener for France.
With Los Blancos now turning their focus to the LaLiga title race and the upcoming UEFA Champions League showdown against Bayern Munich, Mbappe has lightened the mood away from the pitch.
The 27-year-old shared a behind-the-scenes dressing room clip on social media prior to Friday’s friendly against Colombia.
Mbappe showcased his basketball skills in the clip, drilling a lefty jump shot into a trash can and celebrating with his teammates.

Mbappe cheekily tagged the National Basketball Association in his post and asked for a “10-day contract,” and the NBA quickly joined in on the fun by resharing the viral clip on its official account.
