Audio just surfaced of Kylian Mbappe going at it with Jordi alba during last night’s match between PSG and FC Barcelona. 

Kylian Mbappe was virtually unstoppable last night when he faced Jordi Alba and company at Camp Nou. It was his moment to make a statement with no Neymar on his side to take the responsibility off his shoulders. Throughout the whole 90 minutes, he was tasked to take on Sergiño Dest on the left flank. Even though the American full-back has been on point this season, last night was a test to determine how much he can deal with superstars.

Mbappe is currently one of the best players in the world, if not the best. During one of many moments of despair for Dest, the French forward didn’t like a challenge he received and he was met with a direct confrontation with Jordi Alba. In the exchange picked up by Sport, Mbappe demanded Dest not to touch him after a tackle. The Catalan defender approached Kylian to remind him that the American defender apologized for the incident.

But Kylian seemed high on his accomplishment and even got a little threatening towards Jordi when he approached to defend Dest. Mbappe hinted at a violent altercation by stating: “I would kill you on the streets.” The Barcelona defender laughed it off with Gerard Pique and hinted Kylian was learning these “tactics” from Neymar. “You are learning from the worst,” said Jordi.

It’s no secret that Neymar is a well-known provocateur on the pitch and gets in constant feuds with other players. Also, this incident only feeds into the possibility of Kylian becoming a Real Madrid player next summer. The rivalry with FC Barcelona just got a lot more interesting after last night’s historic hat-trick.
