Kylian Mbappe cut a frustrated figure after being forced to watch Emiliano Martinez's World Cup final heroics.While being handed the prize, the Aston Villa shot-stopper stood on stage as those in attendance were played clips of his best moments from the year.With Argentina and France level at 3-3 in extra-time, Martinez attracted huge praise for a stunning stop in open play from Randal Kolo Muani in the latter stages of the match.
The 31-year-old did everything that he could to distract the France team on the night, something that clearly worked, with some of the attendees at the Ballon d'Or ceremony booing him as the highlights were played back. While host, Didier Drogba, urged those in attendance to 'respect' Martinez, Mbappe and France's head coach Didier Deschamps could only watch on in disappointment.Social media was sent into meltdown over their reactions, as one X user said: "This camera man knows what he is doing. Camera on Mbappe and Deschamps.
