Real Sociedad’s Japanese player, Take Kubo, takes responsibility for PSG’s first goal scored by Kylian Mbappé.
Take Kubo showcased his technical skills and game vision, pushing PSG to its limits during the Champions League Round of 16. However, defensively, he struggled and feels accountable for PSG’s opening goal scored by Kylian Mbappé.
« It’s my fault. I thought I had it under control, I thought Igor (Zubeldia) was going to clear it, but the ball hit a Paris player’s back, and at that moment, Mbappé, as fast as he is, had already gained 2 meters on me. I feel very guilty about this goal; we were having a good match until then, » Kubo stated.
« I hope we’ll have better luck in the return leg. We were down to 10 men. I had to mark Mbappé, but I let him go. It’s a mistake on my part. In these matches, these mistakes change everything, » the Japanese player confessed after the match.
