Paul Pogba’s amazing speech before France’s last-16 World Cup clash with Argentina has been released, following their World Cup glory this summer. The side faced a tough test against Argentina but they stood up to the task and impressed in a 4-3 win. Kylian Mbappe took centre stage and scored two goals during the game but while the youngster got all the credit after the game, another France player is being praised for that game today.
That comes in the form of Paul Pogba after his speech before the game went viral on social media. Pogba starred for France during this World Cup and was heavily praised following the final against Croatia. Though, it is his influence off the pitch that has really got him some extra credit following France’s run. His influence in the dressing room can be told by the video that has since gone viral, showing his speech prior to the game.
“We want to see warriors on the field today,” he explained.
“I don’t want to go home tonight, I’m telling you I’m not going home tonight. I’m staying in this hotel, eating those f**king pastas.
“I want us to celebrate tonight. I want everyone to die on the field today.
“No one will let the others down, we’ll kill those Argentines, Messi or not I don’t give a f**k.
“We came to win this fucking World Cup, let’s go guys”
