racial discrimination
The news of the song has sparked widespread concern and condemnation. According to previous reports, Enzo turned on a live social media stream after Argentina won the Copa America and sang a song containing racist discrimination on the team bus with a number of teammates.
Originally sung by Argentine fans during the 2022 World Cup, the song's lyrics attacked some of the players on the French team with African heritage, notably Kylian Mbappe. Although Fernandez was interrupted by his teammates as he sang the first expletive, the video has gone viral on social media, provoking a great deal of anger and condemnation from netizens.
The French Football Federation and the French Minister of Sport have responded to the matter, stating that they will contact FIFA and send a letter to the Argentine Football Federation requesting further action. The President of the French Football Federation, Mr. Diallo, strongly condemned the unacceptable racist remarks and stated that legal action would be taken.
According to the newspaper L'Equipe, the incident not only harmed the French players and their families, but also violated the spirit of sport and the values of human rights. The international community and the sports world are closely following the development of this incident and call for the rejection of all forms of racial discrimination and the preservation of the fairness and dignity of sport.
At present, the Argentine Football Association has not yet made an official response to this matter, but the continued fermentation of the incident will undoubtedly have a far-reaching impact on the international sports world. It is hoped that this incident will give further impetus to emphasizing and solving the problem of racial discrimination.
