Belgium backtracks on Mbappe social video
France will take on Belgium in perhaps the most high-profile Round of 16 tie, and the Red Devils' social media accounts upped the tensions between the neighbours over the weekend.
A video posted to Belgium's channels showed comedian Pablo Andres, who works extensively with the Belgian Football Federation, asking; "who will kick Mbappe's shin?"
Midfielder Amadou Onana then answers with his own name.
The video, though, was swiftly deleted and was the subject of an apology from spokesperson Stefan van Loock, who said: "The video was intended to be humorous but has since been taken offline.
"We would like to apologise to anyone we may have offended. This concludes the matter for us."
