While most FIFA players would be happy with a UEFA Champions League Laporte, one of the best center-halves in the world both in and out of the game, Castro clearly has higher expectations. Celebrating his big pull after seeing the French flag pop up, the hugely popular FIFA streamer clearly thought he was getting Mbappe in his pack, a card worth millions of coins that could have greatly bolstered his game whether he used the player in his team or sold it for a massive profit. In the original clip, you see Castro start celebrating as soon as he realizes he\u2019s getting a blue card \u2013 meaning it could be pretty special \u2013 and the volume only grows when the French flag appears on-screen and his mind goes to the best-case scenario, thinking he was about to have Mbappe slotting balls home for fun. Instead, as the \u201cCB\u201d lettering appears on screen and confirms that the World Cup winner will not be in his club, Castro looks gutted. His \u201cMbappe\u201d screams die out, and are replaced by screams of \u201cWhat the f**k,\u201d as he asks \u201cwhy it\u2019s like that?\u201d In an unexpected twist, though, Laporte retweeted the clip with a bunch of laughing emoji, before telling Castro \u201csorry for your loss bro.\u201d It\u2019s becoming more and more common to see famous sports stars engaging with the top streamers, with the two world\u2019s colliding on a somewhat regular basis in recent years. But Laporte wasn\u2019t done here, and Laporte was clearly interested in Castro and his work. Not having had his fun yet, Laporte responded to another Castro tweet telling him that he \u201calmost\u201d packed a Team of the Year card. It\u2019s definitely surprising that Laporte responded to the tweet but, rather than be too excited, Castro had a very clear message for Laporte, responding to the star on January 7 saying \u201cGood morning to everyone except Aymeric Laporte.\u201d Good morning to everyone except Aymeric Laporte. https:\/\/t.co\/Inthb6U6TR \u2014 Castro1021 (@Castro1021) January 7, 2020 Many other footballers might have been offended at Castro\u2019s very clear disappointment, but it\u2019s good to see Laporte take it on the chin and accept that it\u2019s not a knock on him, but simply a hilarious moment from Castro\u2019s stream. With other Premier League players such as Dele Alli and Mesut Ozil dipping their toes into the esports and streaming world in the last couple of years, maybe Aymeric Laporte could become the first Premier League-winning livestreamer to grace our screens.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Man City star Laporte teases Castro after packing him in FIFA 20 After opening a pack in FIFA Ultimate Team, Castro was disappointed to have got Man City center-back Aymeric Laporte instead of PSG star Kylian Mbappe \u2013 and Laporte made sure to make fun of the FIFA streamer.
