Kylian Bbappé said on Monday that hehe European national team tournaments have a higher level than those in South America.
The statements of the PSG attacker and the French team gsparked controversy on this side of the continent as well as in South American soccer players who play in important clubs in Europe.
This is the case of the Brazilian midfielder Fabinho, who is getting ready with Liverpool of England to play the Champions League final against Real Madrid in Paris on Saturday.
“It’s different, it’s not easy. We have to travel 11 or 12 hours (from Europe) to play in South America.. We have to play in places like Bolivia, which is not easy. I don’t know if France has ever played in Bolivia, but we have to go play there and it’s not easy.”said the 28-year-old midfielder from São Paulo.
FAbinho mentioned Bolivia because he plays at home in La Paz and in a stadium at 3,600 meters high where teams like the Brazilian need to prepare in another way to win in this stronghold.
Mbappé contradicted himself when he put Brazil as a candidate to win the World Cup in Qatar, because before he had said that the teams of Argentina and Brazil do not reach the World Cup con the same level as the European ones.
“So when we get to the World Cup, we’re ready. BBrazil and Argentina do not have that level, in South America football is not as advanced as in Europethat’s why in the last world cups, if you look, it’s always the Europeans who win,” Mbappe said in an interview with the international network ESPN.
In this regard, Fabinho said: “If Brazil or Argentina played in Europe they would qualify as first in the groups”
