Inter went 15 points clear at the top of the Serie A with a 2-1 win on Monday, March 4, with goals from Kristjan Asllani and Alexis Sanchez enough to give Simeone Inzaghi’s men all three points.

Mbappe’s comment on Thuram

Typically, players share their successes on social media after their club’s victory during a match day.

This was no different with Thuram, who posted to his 1.4 million followers a photo of himself upon his return to the team after a leg problem.

“I come back with great joy thanks to the beautiful victory in front of our fans,” he posted.

Hawk-eyed fans noticed one oddity with his post, as he decided to tag Mbappe on the post.

Interestingly, the 2018 World Cup winner picked up on Thuram’s banter and decided to respond in the comment section using a meme of himself.

The meme in question is of Mbappe’s viral reaction from 2019 to his former teammate Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting, who somehow missed from an open net during a game against Strasbourg, per beIN Sports.

That one comment from Mbappe has since garnered over 129,000 likes as Thuram’s teammate Marko Arnautović also joined in the fun.

Most followed footballers on Instagram

Earlier, Sports Brief highlighted a list of the most followed football stars on Instagram after Lionel Messi clocked the 500 million mark on the platform.

Cristiano Ronaldo still holds top spot with a staggering 623 million followers.

Neymar is third with over 220 million followers.

Mbappe ‘races’ Usain Bolt

In other news, a simulator attempted to show exactly what would happen if Mbappe attempted to race man Usain Bolt.

The experiment includes multiple camera perspectives of the virtual race, including the point of view of the French star - who is immediately overtaken by Bolt.

One major point of the 3D simulation is to capture the essence of the two athletes’ attributes and bringing them to life.
