What did James Corden have to do with Kylian Mbappe's World Cup flute celebration?

· Yahoo Sports

France's Kylian Mbappe got on the score sheet in the 66th minute on Tuesday against Senegal, and it was pretty clear the Real Madrid star went into the match with a premeditated celebration.

Apparently, we can thank James Corden for that. No, really.

Corden has been teaming up with Fox's World Cup coverage this tournament as the host of After Hours — a Word Cup late-night show. And the show even included a car-ride interview with Mbappe along with a fashion show.

That was how we saw Corden's apparent influence play out in Tuesday's France-Senegal match at MetLife Stadium. When Mbappe gave France that 1-0 lead, he went with a flute celebration instead of his typical arms-crossed celly.

It was the same celebration that Mbappe rehearsed in his appearance on Corden's show.
