France star Kylian Mbappe returned to training with Paris Saint-Germain on Wednesday just three days after he ended up on the losing side despite scoring a hat-trick in the World Cup final.

The 24-year-old cast a despondent figure in the aftermath of France’s loss to Argentina – led by his PSG teammate Lionel Messi – in a penalty shootout, despite his goals twice bringing the 2018 champions level.

However, although PSG players have been given 10 days off Mbappe was pictured at the French champions training ground.

“Kylian Mbappe returned to training on Wednesday,” tweeted PSG.

Mbappe, who finished top scorer at the World Cup with eight goals, was not expected back till January and PSG did not say whether he would be available for selection for their Ligue 1 match with Strasbourg on December 28.

His return to training comes the day after a documentary on France’s campaign shows Mbappe giving his teammates a rousing halftime talk in Sunday’s final following a limp first-half which saw them trail 2-0.

“It is the World Cup guys, it is the match of a lifetime!” says Mbappe in French broadcaster TF1’s documentary.

“In any case we could hardly play worse than we have already done.

“We are going back on the pitch and either we carry on playing like idiots or we up the intensity.

“It is the World Cup Final! We are losing 2-0 but we can come back.

“Hey guys, this only comes around once every four years.”
