The Argentine national team won 1-0 against Colombia in the Copa America final. During the championship parade, Albiceleste players reportedly chanted racist remarks about Kylian Mbappé and the French national team.

According to RMC Sport, the French Football Federation is preparing a complaint to FIFA. They will send a letter to FIFA and Argentina regarding the incident. The melody of the song sung by Argentine fans at the 2022 FIFA World Cup is clearly audible. The lyrics of the song include:

"They play for France, but they're all from Angola! They have sex with trannies, like gay Mbappé. Their mom is from Nigeria, and their dad is from Cameroon. But their passport says they're French."

It is worth noting that France's head coach Didier Deschamps will remain in his position and continue preparing the French national team for the 2026 World Cup.
