Alfredo Stéfano Di Stéfano (4 July 1926 – 7 July 2014) was an Argentinian footballer and coach. He is regarded as one of the best footballers of all time.
Di Stéfano played international football mostly for Spain after moving to Madrid.

This proves that no. You are wrong. The world cup didn't "use" to be what you think it was. People always had the choice to play for the country that gave them citizenship.
What about Pele. Pele is as black as any African. You consider him playing for Brazil a cheat too?


it's just a braindead statement that shows he has 0 understanding of the topic he's talking about. He's just mad argentina lost and most ppl weren't argentina fans.

Most countries in the world consist of different ethnicities. The world cup is country and continent representation. Not ethnicity. Otherwise we would not have a Russian team, or an American one, a Chinese one, a Senegalese one, a Nigerian one, no brazilian team, etc. but instead many ethnic teams.

Di Stéfano played with two different national teams during his career: he played six times with the Argentine national team, and 31 times with the Spanish national team, scoring 23 goals. However, he never played in the World Cup.[5] The player also played four times with Colombia XI, a team formed by some of the best players of the Dimayor league tournament, sometimes mistaken as Colombia international matches (reason of why they are not recognized by FIFA).[23][24][25]

Pls read before posting things you know nothing about. Stefano having played for both teams and Colombia wasnt even eligible to play a world cup, to be eligible you have to play only for 1 national team your whole life so you have to choose well. This is a horrible example pls keep looking. Hey kaiser please read and post the definition of racism 10000 times so its gets through your thick skull.. In no way am I racist for saying someone is of a certain ethnic background when they truly are so. Just stating a fact.
And Umeu its 1 thing if you have 1 or 2 players from different ethnic country on your national team.. its different when over half your team are from other countries thats a bit excesive.

An irrelevant fact. You insinuate that they aren't actually French because of a certain heritage, which you then confuse with ethnicity. You would never say this if they were white and you couldn't actually tell them apart from the "ethnically pure". That's just racist. Many argentinians are from german and italian descent, not to mention that they're all pretty much spanish settlers. Where do you draw the line between immigrant and ethnically pure? Klose and podolski are polish for example. I wonder if you wouldve complained about that too lmao. I guess not, cuz you can't tell from their facebook picture right?!

the players aren't even from different countries. most of them are born and raised in france. They are french citizens. They're french in culture most likely. By definition of ethnicity, that actually includes them in the French ethnic group. But some people would rather equate ethnicity with race... at best that's ignorance, most likely it's something else.

Ye, you fail to get the point. Let's wait for your next ban, you certainly haven't learned anything from the first, as you keep going with displaying your racist ignorance.

What if they put 11 griezman's, kocielny's and girouds in the team, and show you the picture. What does that picture say then? Same situation, yet then your picture says nothing.

You're just pathetic. Nice display of racism and stupidity there, considering that some guys basically aren't french just because they're black. Go back to the 18th century mate.
And for the record, I couldn't care less about football, it's not about that.


Call Mbappe or Umtiti for sunday so you have a chance.


Good advice. Did work. 10/10

Mbappe is really a rising start, France should win this world cup I dont see any other team beating that.

Having said this. how can you call this France?? You guys have half of africa on your team seriously these guys arent french.
Argentina, Brasil, Mexico, Spain, all these teams are 100% ethnically pure. I understand with all the immigrants you might as well put them on your national team and get some use out of them.
Go france pls rape brasil.

100% ethnically pure :D
Bro, the whole South America is basically half Spain, Italy and Portugal.

lol ya, the teams he actually mentioned as ethnically pure are some of the biggest "melting pots" in the world. Only spain can be called "ethnically pure", even though you have basques and catalans playing for them, diego costa is brazilian.
