Kylian McBarbee, who won three consecutive matches in the final, failed to win the Cup for France. French President Emmanuel Macron came to the stadium after the match to console him and gave him a couple of pats on the back for the award presentation, but the French striker didn't want to communicate with the president in the face of his goodwill.
When McBarbee scored a 12-yard field goal for France, Macron jumped up and down in the VIP seats, but in the end, France lost by 12 yards in overtime. Macron, who had flown to Qatar to support the team, came to the stadium after the game to comfort the international players, and even went to McBarbee, who was sitting on the stadium to comfort him and give him hugs, but McBarbee was taken for a ride and then left him.
Macron, who was presenting the award, gave it to McBarbee, who had scored eight goals this year. He met McBarbee again on the stage and touched his head and said a few words to him, but the top scorer had no visual communication with him and looked a bit impatient.
Macron said in an interview after the game: "I told him that you are only 23 years old, but you are already the best scorer of the World Cup, and you have won the World Cup; I am just as sad as you are, but you have made the country proud, and we were very close, and we only lost one game.
