Kylian Mbappe warmed up for France’s international friendly against Scotland this week by scoring a sensational goal during a training session.
Mbappe – fresh from bagging a brace in France’s 2-1 win over the Netherlands last Friday night – nailed a bicycle kick into the top corner of the net from the edge of the penalty area during a practice drill inside an empty Stade Pierre-Mauroy in Lille.
The Paris Saint-Germain star’s reaction to his perfect shot was a mixture of joy and amusement.
Mbappe celebrated by ripping off his training top and sprinting back to the locker room while laughing continuously.
Footage of the strike and Mbappe’s hysterical celebration went viral on social media.

Mbappe will be hoping to make his 73rd senior international appearance for France in Tuesday’s clash with Scotland.
The 24-year-old has netted 42 international goals to date, placing him fourth on the list of the all-time top scorers for the France men’s national team.
