KYLIAN MBAPPE was involved in a bizarre moment with an advertising board in last night’s France match.
The incident came as France thrashed Luxembourg 3-0 courtesy of goals from Randal Kolo-Muani, Jonathan Clauss and Mbappe himself.
The incident came when Mbappe was left floored after a tackle.
Sat on the floor next to an advertising hoarding, an advert showed a man crawling along in a tan suit and glasses appearing to look at Mbappe.
The French captain turned around at the exact time as the man on the advert, and the two appeared to make awkward eye contact.
Mbappe then turned away in disbelief at the creepy timing of the ad.

Kylian Mbappe ‘snaps up £15m mansion in Beckham’s old neighbourhood’ next door to Real Madrid legend and Hollywood star
By Gerard Couzens
KYLIAN MBAPPE has reportedly splashed out more than £15million on a mansion in Madrid.
The French superstar, whose drawn-out transfer to Real Madrid has finally being confirmed, is said to have finalised the purchase late last month.
Respected Spanish daily La Razon says the house he has bought is in the exclusive Madrid suburb of La Moraleja, where David Beckham spent most of his time living when he was in the Spanish capital.
And it says his neighbours will include former Real Madrid legend Sergio Ramos and his stunning model wife Pilar Rubio as well as Hollywood star Richard Gere and his Spanish publicist wife Alejandra Silva.
La Razon said Mbappe had considered the gated estate of La Finca where Jude Bellingham lives and Cristiano Ronaldo still owns property as an option.
But it reported the 25-year-old, who threw an extravagant party for 250 guests at a stylish Italian restaurant a short walk from the Eiffel Tower, ended up opting for La Moraleja a 15-minute drive from Real Madrid’s Valdebebas training complex because it was “more comfortable.”

He dedicated his goal to his late Uncle Alex, who passed away recently.
Posting an image of his celebration on his Instagram, he wrote: “rest in peace Uncle Alex. It’s hard to find the words to say how much you left us too soon and will be missed.
“Life will never be the same without you. Your family will be taken care of, you can be sure of that. May God open the doors of heaven for you.”
