Kylian Mbappe was 静かな, so 静かな it 叫び声をあげるd 支援する at you as PSG 出口d the 支持する／優勝者s League - his 失敗 to 征服する／打ち勝つ Europe is a 十分な stop on a story long since told, 令状s CRAIG HOPE

• e-mail

At least he 前線d up to the マスコミ for a few minutes, which is more than he had done in the previous 90 on the pitch. Ballon d'Or? Kylian Mbappe is the balloon 長，率いるd for the door, and what a deflating 出口 this was, beaten 2-0 over two 脚s by Borussia Dortmund, the fifth best team in Germany.

Big players - the best, the very best - they turn up on nights like this, and not just to whisper a few words to the 圧力（をかける）. Subdued just about 逮捕（する）s his 業績／成果, too. For all the noise inside Parc des Princes, Mbappe was 静かな, so 静かな it 叫び声をあげるd 支援する at you.

He was gagged, in part, by Mats Hummels and Nico Schlotterbeck. But there was something about his own 団体／死体 language that seemed 制限する - there were 早期に 苦しめる signals in the form of a pass straight to a yellow jersey - and he reserved his most expressive 活動／戦闘 for a roll of the 注目する，もくろむs when asked by the 圧力（をかける） if he would be supporting Real Madrid?on Wednesday evening, the club he will join this summer. With that, Mbappe left. It was as if he had never been there at all.

Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi - not the 減らすd 見解／翻訳／版 of PSG - always showed. Through a human 技術 so superior or an animalistic 軍隊 of nature, they carried their teams to victory. Between them, they won the 支持する／優勝者s League nine times. Mbappe, at 25, remains on 無.

Maybe it will be that the move to Madrid brings a flurry of European 栄冠を与えるs in the second half of his career. But what has the first half - seven seasons at PSG - 量d to? In actual numbers - six Ligue 1 肩書を与えるs 加える three French Cup and two League Cup 勝利，勝つs.

Kylian Mbappe 削減（する） a forlorn 人物／姿／数字 after PSG were 捨てるd out of the 支持する／優勝者s League

Mbappe was unable to 奮起させる PSG past Borussia Dortmund as they lost 2-0 on aggregate

But to any 観察者／傍聴者 beyond フラン, Mbappe only plays in the 支持する／優勝者s League. What he 達成するs 国内で feels like box ticking. The one box he had to 居住させる on Tuesday was the 刑罰，罰則 box. He put himself in there, at least in a literal sense. But the spirit, the will, the 技術, the 質s which saw him 得点する／非難する／２０ a hat-trick in a World Cup final, they were どこかよそで. Madrid, perhaps?

The 地元のs agreed this week that Mbappe's 遺産／遺物 would be 決定するd by PSG's success or さもなければ in this season's 支持する／優勝者s League. He did not, however, 令状 a new 一時期／支部. Rather, this 量d to a 十分な stop on a story long since told.

As an epitaph, L'用意する's match 率ing of two out of 10 was 残虐な, if not 完全に 不公平な.

'His last match with Paris in (the 支持する／優勝者s League) looked like a nightmare,' they wrote. '任命する／導入するd on the left 味方する, the 攻撃者 was, for a long time, infinitely technically 壊れやすい. 支配するd in the duel by Hummels, he almost never went one-on-one.

'He 行方不明になるd his 発射 from の近くに 範囲 (36th minute) and 辛うじて 行方不明になるd the 発射 which 攻撃する，衝突する the crossbar (86th minute). It was 最終的に through his returning crosses that he was most dangerous. That's so little for a Ballon d'Or 競争相手…'

Mbappe's 権利 of reply （機の）カム when, to our surprise, he appeared in the 回廊（地帯） next to the dressing-rooms to talk to the マスコミ. He ignored Mail Sport's request for a few words in English.

Instead, in a hushed French, he bemoaned his team's 業績／成果 at both ends of the pitch. In truth, though, the 失敗 to 得点する／非難する／２０ a 選び出す／独身 goal over two 脚s was the 推論する／理由 PSG were beaten.

'When we say that we had to do better offensively, I know that I'm 伴う／関わるd,' he said. 'I'm disappointed but that's how it is. When you're not 効果的な in both boxes, it's complic ated. In the 支持する／優勝者s League you have to be 効果的な in two areas, and on this point they were better than us, so there you go.'

The 出発／死ing 25-year-old's seven seasons at the club 量s to no European silverware

His closest chance of 支持する／優勝者s League glory was in 2020 when Paris Saint-Germain lost to Bayern Munich in the final

Mbappe rolled his 注目する，もくろむs when he was asked if he would support Real Madrid vs Bayern Munich

He proceeded to walk out of the interview, not honouring the question with even a word

Why did he want to talk?

'When I 得点する／非難する／２０, I take the light and I come in 前線 of you,' he said. 'When I'm not, I also take on the dark 味方する. Not a problem.'

The que stion about Real Madrid 刺激するd one of his quicker movements of the evening, and that was that. Will it be the last time he speaks as a PSG player? It 事柄s not, really. 活動／戦闘s speak louder than words, and his last meaningful 行為／法令／行動する was a meaningless slip as he went through on goal in the dying seconds.

By now, the pyros in the stands had fizzled away. With it, the light went out for good on Mbappe and PSG in the 支持する／優勝者s League. It never did 燃やす as brightly as they had hoped.
