JAKARTA - A group of Argentine supporters in Qatar humiliated themselves and their country by singing offensive songs on television ahead of the World Cup.
Although France is not in the same group as Argentina, some Albiceleste fans see Les Blues as one of their biggest rivals to lift trophies.
To that end, they made a special chant dedicated to the French team and Les Blues star player Kylian Mbappe.
A support group sang offensive short songs for Argentina's TyC Sports channel, before the cameras finally highlighted and reporters complained, labeling the song 'censored'.
The sound that is broadcast on television and is now viral on social media is disgusting and offensive for various reasons.
One part is aimed especially at Mbappe and alludes to his love story with the transgender model Ines Rau, who was the first trans woman to appear on the cover of Playboy.
"They are stupid transvestites like Mbappe stupid" shouted a group of Argentine fans.
Another part is targeting the entire French squad with racist metaphors that the Les Bleus squad is full of African players, implying that black players should not be French.
This offensive affirmation is not new and the satire of xenophobia is quite explicit.
"They play for France, but they are all from Angola," sings Argentine supporters.
Only one player in the French squad was born in Angola and only two were born in Africa.
Both of these players moved to France when they were two years old, that doesn't mean it's important.
Potential opponents in the round of 16
France and Argentina could face off in the round of 16, if one of them finished as group runner-up.
If they really face each other, this song video will definitely reappear. And maybe, it actually serves as additional motivation for France.
