Mbappe admits ankle 'hurts a bit' after knock in France's win over Sweden

Kylian Mbappe was experiencing pain in his right ankle following France's 1-0 win over Sweden on Saturday but the star forward does not believe it is serious.

Mbappe scored with Les Bleus' only shot on target in their Nations League Group A3 opener, however, the Paris Saint-Germain sensation went off in the 77th minute after a blow to his foot.

The 21-year-old suffered an ankle injury in PSG's Coupe de France final triumph against Saint-Etienne on July 24 and only just recovered in time for the resumption of their Champions League campaign three weeks later.
