BBC welcomed the return of Kylian Mbappe to Euro 2024 with a subtle change to their opening title.
The France superstar suffered a broken nose in his country’s first group stage match, a 1-0 win over Austria.
Mbappe missed the next game against Holland, which ended in a 0-0 draw.
But he made a heroic return to France’s XI for last night’s 1-1 draw with Poland.
Mbappe opened his tournament account with a penalty in the 56th minute as he donned a protective face mask.

Yet Poland levelled with a penalty of their own as Robert Lewandowski ensured the points were split.
The result saw France end up finishing second behind Austria, who topped the group after a dramatic 3-2 win over Holland.
But before pre-match coverage had even started, Mbappe took centre stage in the BBC’s opening titles.

And following Mbappe’s broken nose — and subsequent face mask — his character was also given a protective covering in a tweak to the original opening.
