England fans left seething at Kylian Mbappe’s reaction to Harry Kane’s skied penalty in World Cup heartbreaker vs France
ENGLAND fans fumed at Kylian Mbappe after he laughed in reaction to Harry Kane’s penalty miss.
Kane blazed over from 12 yards and it proved costly as France beat England 2-1 to secure a place in the World Cup semi-final where they will meet Morocco.
Earlier in the half the England captain beat Hugo Lloris with a spot-kick to equalise.
But he could not repeat the trick after Mason Mount was bundled over in the penalty area.
A delighted Mbappe burst out laughing as he watched the ball sail over the bar.
England fans were angered by his behaviour and took to social media to slam the France superstar.
One supporter wrote: “Mbappe laughing shows what kind of idiot he is.”
Another added: “I actually dislike Mbappe, he’s so annoying.”
And a third said: “I used to love Mbappe, but his childish reaction to Kane’s miss was nasty.”
Another remarked: “Probs laughing because everyone’s been hyping him up and he’s ghosted all game but still gonna go through.”

Olivier Giroud also celebrated passionately and almost went right up to Kane’s face before a team-mate intervened.
The England captain was quickly consoled by Jude Bellingham but the Three Lions could not find a way back into the game.
