FANS were left amazed after a forgotten Premier League star “bullied” Kylian Mbappe.
However, many were shocked to learn the star lines up for Greece.
George Baldock in action against Kylian Mbappe
Baldock’s performance against France was described as ‘sensational’
Sheffield United star George Baldock was lining up against Mbappe and Co for a European Championship qualifier between Greece and France.
Baldock, a key component of the Blades successful promotion back to the Premier League, was born in England and has already made 70 appearances for United in the English top flight.
However, the 30-year-old is eligible to play for Greece due to his maternal grandmother.
He was granted Greek citizenship in 2022, and has already gone on to earn nine caps.
But fans were still shocked to see the line up, with one saying: “George Baldock plays for Greece? Since when?”
“George Baldock plays for Greece 
,” wrote another.
Fans were left impressed by his performance as he largely silenced World Cup final hat-trick scorer Mbappe.
The superstar only managed to score and secure a 1-0 win from the penalty spot after Antoine Griezmann was brought down by ex-Arsenal star Konstantinos Mavropanos.
Reacting to Baldock’s display, one fan said: “He´s bullying Mbappe .”
A second typed: “Mbappe gets pocketed by Baldock, ya love to see it.”
“The best player in the world and some bloke called mbappe,” joked a third.
While SunSport’s Kostas Lianos added: “George Baldock was absolutely sensational for Greece against Kylian Mbappe during the Euro 2024 qualifier against France in Paris.
“This is why I spent years slamming Greek chiefs for taking too long to clear Baldock for the squad! #SUFC.”
