Mbappé Returns for France and Scores Winner Against Türkiye

After missing France’s Nov. 12 match against Italy with reported hamstring pain, Mbappé returned against Türkiye and scored the only goal in a 1–0 France win, finishing Michael Olise’s assist in the 54th minute. Reports say he travelled to Milan and watched the Italy match from the stands; he was substituted in the 59th against Türkiye. A photo of him travelling with the delegation countered escape rumors, while his precise diagnosis and claims of serious tension remain unverified.
