Benjamin Mendy, a recent under-20 world champion from the tournament in Turkey, expressed his disappointment regarding the defeat of his fellow players in the under-19 Euro final against Serbia (1-0). The Marseille player, who is known for enjoying significant victories, shared his feelings about not being able to contribute on the field due to injury.
“I’m disappointed. It’s sad to get this far and lose in the final. Everyone knows that a final is won. There are two teams playing it, and there it was Serbia who won. It does something, that’s for sure; we all want to participate in this type of event. I couldn’t take part because of my injury, and I’m sad not to be with them,” said the Franco-Senegalese player on his club’s website. Mendy’s words reflect his passion for success and his regret at not being able to contribute to the team’s effort in the final match.
