Zapping Foot National Laure Boulleau: “I imagine a sequence where Mbappé talks about a match of the Bleues…”
Further proof of the smallness of Man, if any more were needed. Last night, the United States faced Panama in the second day of the Copa America group stage. A match that saw the teammates of Marseille’s Amir Murillo create a surprise and win by a score of two goals to one in order to revive the suspense in this Group C. Scorer for the opening goal in the 22nd minute of play, Folarin Balogun did not allow his country to take a step towards the quarter-finals of the competition. After the match, the AS Monaco striker was the victim of insults by American supporters. In the process, the American Football Federation published a statement to denounce “racist comments” published on social networks against its players.
“There is absolutely no place in this sport for such hateful and discriminatory behavior. These actions are not only unacceptable but also contrary to the values of respect and inclusion that we defend as an organization. US Soccer firmly opposes racism in all its forms and will continue to support its players,” the national team said. Folarin Balogun was not the only international targeted by these insults, since former Lille and Paris player Timothy Weah was also targeted, as was Chris Richards. The USA are second in their group and will face Uruguay, first, on the night of July 1 to 2 (3:00 a.m.).

To sum up
A new proof of the smallness of Man, if one were still needed. Tonight, the United States faced Panama in the second day of the Copa America group stage. A meeting which saw the teammates of Marseillais Amir Murillo create a surprise and win by a score of two goals to one in order to reignite the suspense in this Group C.
