Real ace fancied after stomach bug
KYLIAN MBAPPE has timed his runs to perfection at the Club World Cup.
The Real Madrid ace missed all the hard work of the group games with a nasty dose of the trots.
But Mbappe came on as a substitute in the defeat of Juventus in the last-16 and looks primed to boss things now the really serious stuff is underway.
Yes, the CWC has reached the quarterfinal stage - ‘What, so soon?!’ I hear you cry.
It barely seems six months ago that the whole magical journey kicked off on June 14 with an unforgettable 0-0 between whatever two sides did that, and yet here we are.
But when FIFA gives us a lemon, punters can always make lemonade - and tonight’s two games certainly look like a zesty pair to punt.
