‘It’s do or die’ – Kyle Walker sends Kylian Mbappe caution ahead of England vs France World Cup
Manchester City and Britain defender Kyle Walker will be approached to check France striker Kylian Mbappe at the World Cup.
Manchester City defender Kyle Walker demands he won’t “give a first class reception” for Kylian Mbappe when Britain take on France in their World Cup blockbuster on Saturday night.
Mbappe, 23, has been a focusing light at the Qatar grandstand with five goals from three begins to move the holders into another last-eight standoff. Britain, in the mean time, have timed up three wins and drifted past Senegal to book their spot in the quarters where they will meet the PSG genius and his regarded teammates.

After getting a physical issue before the competition, Walker challenged the chances to be passed fit enough for consideration and will be put through a lot of hardship by Mbappe at the Al-Bayt Arena on Saturday night. The looming fight between the two players has been charged as a possibly game-characterizing one.
However, while recognising the danger jet-heeled Mbappe poses, Walker has hinted he will be in no mood to back down with such a grand prize on offer for both teams.
During his pre-match press duties, Walker said: “I understand what I need to do and that is to stop him. It’s easier said than done, but I don’t underestimate myself.
“He is a fantastic player in great form. It is not going to be an easy task, but as a professional footballer you want to play against the best and I think he is one of the best, if not the best, in the world at the moment.”
Walker continued: “You have to give him respect, but not too much. Yes it will be a tough game, but a team cannot just be about one person.
“I’m not going to roll out a red carpet for him and tell him to score. It’s a World Cup, it’s do or die.”
