Welcome to an electrifying article written exclusively by PenGossiper on FMTBlog, where we’re spilling the beans on the latest and greatest from the world of football.
Sometime in the early dawn of August 29, Kylian Mbappe, the golden boy of Real Madrid, watched in horror as hackers took over his X account. But how did the world know about it? The clever hackers quickly started promoting a cryptocurrency, ‘$MBAPPE,’ alleging it had reached 90,000 sales.
The brazen intruders began posting provocative messages as if that wasn’t enough. This included a cryptic hint about a potential transfer to Manchester United and a contentious comment on the long-standing rivalry between the two football titans, Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi.
The internet quickly exploded with every tweet the hackers released. The football community was buzzing, and controversy was in the air. The hackers went on a virtual rampage, showering praises on a well-known United fan account, @UTDTrey, and even declaring that “Manchester is Red.” A response to a user asking if Mbappe would prefer a move to London was met with, “London is s***, bro.”
What’s more? They didn’t stop at stirring the pot but also decided to fan the flames of the Ronaldo vs. Messi debate. They didn’t hold back, dubbing Ronaldo “the greatest football player of all time” while using derogatory terms against Messi, the eight-time Ballon d’Or winner.
By the time control was regained, the damage was done. Tweets were deleted, but not before they were seen by millions and sparked a wave of heated discussions and debates.
The audacious hack of Kylian Mbappe’s X account was a moment that, while controversial, brought the football community together in unexpected ways.
