Croatia President Kolinda Grabar-Kitarovic had told him he had a “nice moustache” in the aftermath of the 2018 World Cup final, a remark that unwittingly led to the Frenchman embarrassing himself.
As quoted by 20 Minutes, here is Rami’s awkward conversation with the beautiful president who caught the eyes of many during the tournament.
“After the World Cup Final, the President of Croatia looked at me and said ‘nice moustache’. And I told her, ‘I love Mykonos’. I don’t know why but I’ve always confused Greece and Croatia.
“She said ‘thank you’ and she left.”
To make the matters worse, France striker Olivier Giroud overheard the entire conversation.
“Then, Olivier looks at me and says: ‘Are you stupid? Mykonos is Greece.”
I told him, “Oh god, I don’t know anymore. It’s okay, I’m world champion!”
