Punches, fights and harsh language! France accuses Paraguay of shame

The World Cup match between France and Paraguay in Philadelphia was characterized by strong tensions on the pitch and harsh statements after its conclusion.

French striker Kylian Mbappe openly criticized the heavy play of his opponents, emphasizing that his team adapted to the physical and aggressive style applied by Paraguay.

After the final whistle, Mbappr refused to shake hands with goalkeeper Orlando Gill, an action which prompted the latter to hit the striker in the back with the ball.

Other incidents were recorded during the game, with defender Velazquez attempting to damage the penalty spot before France took the kick, while Galarza kicked Mbappe in the face without being punished. Midfielder Rayan Cherki expressed his dissatisfaction that France received three yellow cards, while Paraguay received none, despite harsh tackles under referee Ilgiz Tantashev.

Coach Didier Deschamps also expressed criticism in the press conference, condemning the constant insults that came from the South American team's bench.

After this tense success, the French national team secures passage to the quarter-finals, where they will face the Moroccan national team.
