Cristiano Ronaldo and Kylian Mbappe share laugh at Euro 2020… 8-years on from first meeting while France star was 14

CRISTIANO RONALDO was pictured laughing with Kylian Mbappe after Portugal and France shared the spoils on Wednesday.

The Paris Saint-Germain forward was snapped with Ronaldo’s shirt in his hands, while the Portuguese had Mbappe’s shirt draped across his shoulders.

CR7, 36, scored twice from the penalty spot in Budapest to secure qualification for his country, while Mbappe still remains goalless in Euro 2020.

The duo appeared to be enjoying each other’s company after the final whistle, with Ronaldo grabbing hold of his opposite number.

Ronaldo has every reason to be joyous, as he helped his team progress while also breaking the international goalscoring record.

He now has 109 goals in 178 games for Portugal.

It was a true meeting of the old guard and the new, with Mbappe tipped by many to be a future Ballon d’Or winner.

The 22-year-old is yet to get set the tournament alight like he did in the 2018 World Cup, but he has proved a key danger for France.

And he will be hoping to inspire his country to win his first European Championship title, much like Ronaldo did in 2016.

The pair were snapped smiling and joking with each other

Mbappe was not part of the France squad for that home Euros so did not get a chance to face off against Ronaldo.

But he had met the Juventus star once before, in 2013 when he was just 14-years-old.

And unsurprisingly, the pair’s interaction sparked plenty of discussion on social media.
