"Les deux pays africains" : Un commentateur argentin fait polémique en France lors du match face au Sénégal
The Argentinian commentator for the DirectTV Sport channel has created controversy in France, after comments deemed racist during the match between Les Bleus and the Lions of Senegal (3-1).
To summarize the first period, when Senegal and France were tied (0-0), the Argentinian commentator said: "for the moment the two African countries are drawing".
These remarks have not gone down well in France. The newspaper Le Parisien reported them with indignation on Wednesday. "Unacceptable remarks. On Tuesday evening, an Argentinian commentator on the DirectTV Sport channel made racist statements," it read.
The media outlet also recalls similar remarks by Pastef leader Ousmane Sonko, who declared that "regardless of the winner, Africa will have beaten Africa." According to Le Parisien, Sonko's statement was "unexpected."
