Failed Penalti Execution For France In The 2022 World Cup Finals, Coman And Tchouameni Became Victims Of Racism

JAKARTA - France's national team players, Kingsley Coman and Aurelien Tchouameni became victims of racism after the 2022 World Cup ended. The reason was that they failed to execute a penalty for Les Bleus in the final round.

France failed to defend the world title after falling at the hands of Argentina in the final Sunday, December 18. Les Bleus surrendered in the penalty shootout after compensating Argentina 3-3 for 120 minutes, in the high-fives they lost 2-4

Of the four French executors, two of them failed to score. The two players were Kingsley Coman and Aurelien Tchouameni. Coman's 12 ball was denied by Argentina goalkeeper Emiliano Martinez, while Tchouameni's penalty missed by goal.

Unlike France, four Argentine executors successfully carried out their duties perfectly. The airlifting team was then entitled to the 2022 World Cup trophy.

Quoted from Sky Sport on Tuesday, December 20, the failure of the penalty made Coman and Tchouameni a scapegoat for France's defeat in the 2022 World Cup final. Some fans even racially attacked the two players on social media.

Not only Coman and Tchouameni, Randal Kolo Muani also received racist blasphemy on social media. He is considered a waste of the opportunity to score a crucial goal just before the second extra time ends.

The racism attack on Coman made his club, Bayern Munich, embarrassed. Die Roten immediately released an official statement condemning racial discrimination against his player.

"FC Bayern strongly condemns racist comments made to Kingsley Coman. The Bayern FC family supports you, King. Racism has no place in our sport or society," Bayern Munich said in a statement.
