Fully fit despite limited training
Mbappe didn't complete Monday's training session but "is at 100 percent" according to France national team coach Didier Deschamps, Fabrice Hawkins of RMC Sport reports.
Analysis: Mbappe has tried to avoid taking risks after ending the World Cup quarter-finals win over Morocco with a knock to the ankle. With that issue turning out to be a slight concern, the star attacker will aim to lead his country's front line in the penultimate match of the tournament against Spain, which will represent his toughest test so far. He has been one of the most outstanding players in the competition, scoring eight goals and providing three assists across six starts, and he's expected to retain high offensive potential in the decisive fixtures.
Brushes off injury concern
Mbappe has shaken off any concerns of a possible injury and appears to be fit for his team moving forward, he told reporters, per L'Equipe. "I'm doing well; I took a knock to the ankle, but I'm fine. JP was in better shape than I was to play the last fifteen minutes."
Analysis: Mbappe was taken off the field late into Thursday's win and appeared to be a concern with a foot injury after he was shown with ice on that particular spot. However, the forward has shaken off the concerns in post-match interviews, leaving the forward fit for the semifinals. He is now tied for the Golden Boot with eight goals and remains the most critical player to France's success, a player they cannot lose moving forward.
