A racist scandal in the Argentine national team. The case has reached the country's vice president

The players of the Argentine national team became embroiled in a racist scandal during their celebrations of victory at the Copa America. Vice President Victoria Villarruel reacted strongly to this.

In her tweet, she wrote that Argentina is a sovereign and free country, and they do not wish to have anything imposed upon them.

"Argentina is a sovereign and free country. We have never had colonies or second-class citizens. We have never imposed our way of life on anyone. But neither will we tolerate them doing so to us.

Argentina was created by the sweat and courage of Indians, Europeans, Creoles and blacks, such as Remedios del Valle, Sergeant Cabral and Bernardo de Monteagudo.

No colonial country will intimidate us for shouting a chant or for telling the truth that they don't want to acknowledge. Stop pretending to be outraged, you hypocrites. Enzo, I support you. Messi, thank you for everything!

Argentines always with their heads held high! Long live Argentina!," she wrote.

It should be noted that France has appealed to FIFA to address this issue. According to the French Football Federation, FIFA has now initiated an investigation into the situation.

Additionally, this situation has affected Chelsea. The club has begun an internal investigation as one of the participants, midfielder Enzo Fernández, is implicated in the scandal.
