Martinez is out, Jorge Jesus is coming next

Portugal had high hopes for this World Cup. They have an excellent squad with quality players, led by aging Cristiano Ronaldo, and this was suppose to be his swan song.

“A colonized Cameroonian, pretending to be French, arrogant and ugly”

The true lovers of football were disappointed by the Paraguay performance against France. Against the far superior opponent a defensive tactics was quite logical and legitimate, but the Paraguayans just ‘killed‘ football with their constant fouling, rolling on the grass and lack of wish to attack at all. After the 1-0 win, Kylian Mbappe, who was the constant victim of Paraguayan’s defenders was enjoying himself and didn‘t want to shake hands with keeper Orlando Gill. And that enraged the Paraguayan senator Celeste Amarilla, who posted a stunning racist statement on her social media account. An statement, which involved the head of states from both countries!Madame Celeste Amarilla, Vous êtes une femme méprisable et indigne de sa fonction. Vous ne représentez pas le Paraguay, ce pays qui a transpiré la passion et l’honneur tout au long de la compétition.

Wenger speaks about African immigration

“At the 1998 World Cup we faced France. This time, Paraguay will be facing an African team” wrote Jose Luis Chilavert on his X account before the France – Paraguay game. The famous Paraguayan goalkeeper gave one of his controversial statements here, and this one was even racist.

But one of the reasons this nations is so powerful is the ability to attract and educate all immigrants, who then decide to represent France instead of their country of origin (and sometimes even the country of birth).WC Countdown: How many Africans are in other teams?As we said before the start of the tournament, France has a stunning number of 18 players of African descent, and that fact was acknowledged by former Arsenal coach.
