Former Manchester United captain, Roy Keane, has said Kylian Mbappe was “out of order”, after he returned to the field of play without the referee’s permission.
Mbappe picked up a suspected broken nose late on in their 1-0 win over Austria on Monday.
The France captain suffered the injury after jumping into Austrian defender, Kevin Danso.
Mbappe went off to be attended to by medics, but then returned to the field without the referee’s permission, before sitting on the pitch and receiving a yellow card from the match official.
After the match, Keane slammed Mbappe’s apparent deliberate act of time wasting.
He told ITV Sport: “He gets an injury, trying to stop the play, he’s gone on to sit on the pitch, I don’t like to see this. This is out of order.
“Listen whether he’s been instructed to go back on by the manager, he’s obviously had treatment he’s come off.
“I know players can make mistakes, but to go back on and sit on the pitch, he deserved that yellow card. I don’t like to see it.”
