Belgian Football Association Apologizes for Mbappe Video

Belgium's football association issued an apology after a video featuring Amadou Onana joking about kicking France captain Kylian Mbappe was posted on social media ahead of their Euro 2024 match. The video, taken down by the association, sparked controversy and was not well-received in France. Comedian Pablo Andres was involved in the clip, which was intended to be humorous but backfired, leading to an official apology from Belgium's media spokesman. The incident added tension to the upcoming game between the two countries, reminiscent of their 2018 World Cup semi-final encounter.
