France forward Kylian Mbappe has condemned Paraguayan senator Celeste Amarilla as "despicable" and unworthy of her position after she made racist remarks mocking his origin and education on X following Paraguay's World Cup defeat to France. Mbappe responded publicly, stating that Amarilla does not represent Paraguay and that her racism has overshadowed the team's historic efforts in the tournament. He declared he will never allow people like her to spread hatred and racism. The incident follows racist comments from former Paraguay goalkeeper Jose Luis Chilet, who called the French squad "a squad from Africa" before the match. French football federation president Philippe Diallo condemned Chilavert's remarks as a "disgrace." Mbappe, who scored the winning penalty in the match, is now joint top-scorer in the tournament with seven goals, level with Lionel Messi and Erling Haaland.
