Argentina Football Stars Face Backlash for Racist Chant

The triumphant mood following Argentina’s Copa América victory has been marred by a disturbing incident involving members of the national football team.

In a video that has since gone viral, several players were captured singing a racist chant that explicitly mocks the ethnic origins of French national team players, particularly those of African descent.

The chant, which first gained notoriety during the 2022 World Cup, perpetuates the harmful notion that Black players cannot be considered truly French, despite their citizenship and cultural identity.

Many are calling for swift and decisive action against the players involved, arguing that such behavior has no place in modern football or society at large.
