Fans have come up with a fun idea for a protective mask for striker Kylian Mbappe in his next match after breaking his nose in the opening match of EURO 2024.
In the opening match of EURO 2024, the French team had a narrow 1-0 victory over the Austrian team after defender Maximilian Wöber's own goal. Also in this match, in an attempt to win the ball from a direct free kick, Kylian Mbappe had a strong collision with Austrian center-back Kevin Danso in the 85th minute. This collision caused Mbappe's nose to deviate to one side, causing bleeding and forcing the star striker to leave the field due to pain. After the match ended, Mbappe was immediately taken to a hospital in Dusseldorf for emergency treatment. The doctor's results showed that the player did not need surgery and could still continue playing in the match against the Netherlands, but Mbappe needed to wear a special nose mask when playing. This morning, on his official personal page X, Kylian Mbappe posted a humorous status: "Any ideas for a mask?". The post attracted the attention of many fans with more than 247 thousand likes and 32.9 thousand comments. Mbappe asks fans for their opinions on nose masks.

One of the most popular ideas is the Ninja Turtle mask. This is because many fans discovered that Mbappe has a face quite similar to Donatello - 1 of 4 characters in the cartoon "Ninja Turtle". In fact, this nickname has existed since the striker joined the AS Monaco club in 2017. At the 2018 World Cup in Russia, Mbappe also expressed his excitement and surprise when Thiago Silva - one of his teammates at PSG - gave him a "Ninja Turtle" mask in a Dior box. The image of Mbappe wearing the Ninja Turtle mask was also widely shared by the audience as a suggestion for a protective mask in the next match at EURO 2024. Image of Mbappe wearing Ninja Turtle mask was shared again.

The mask Ramos used was specially designed for the player, worth more than 300 Euros (about 8 million VND). The main material used is carbon fiber, so the weight of the mask is only about 65 grams. However, the protective mask was cumbersome, so Sergio Ramos decided to take it off early. The player shared that he felt uncomfortable wearing the mask and because his ability to recover from the injury was also faster than expected. Fans suggest reusing the mask Sergio Ramos used.

A fan used AI to design a protective mask for the player. Accordingly, this will be a full-face mask, with the main colors of red, blue, white - the colors on the logo of Paris Saint-Germain or a mask with the logo of Real Madrid. In addition, the audience also suggested for Mbappe a mask that protects half of the face, with a 3-color pattern of blue, white, red - the symbolic colors of the French flag.
