    • African-Euro Cup 2018 if I may.maquito

    • France: https://dj0j0ofql4ht…maquito
    • well, thanks for clearing that up :-skingsteven
    • Maquito you are a cunt. Those guys are French. My wife her dad is from Congo, that does not make her African.tank02
    • I was saying the same to a few friends. France consist of like 99% guys from AfricaHAMT
    • @maquito are you effin' serious? this is 2018, dude. Lame.Krassy
    • @HAMT don't be so ignorant. Can't believe in 2018 we have people judging people by skin color. Disturbing.Krassy
    • @tank - I suppose that depends upon your preference and perspective. Black Americans refer to themselves as 'African Americans' - are they all wrong?detritus
    • Tank -of course it does having a dad from the Congo means you have Congolese descent aka African descent, what’s wrong with that?_niko
    • Panama’s black population is 9%. their football team is 99% black, the government is .5% black is this ok or should there be some kind of parity?_niko
    • England looks like a pretty good representation of the country’s demographics but Sweden could use a splash of colour lol_niko
    • Nooo! Krassy, tank, please: I have absolutely not intended to make a discriminative judgement. No way. I feel horrible for being understood as a fucking racistmaquito
    • I feel it’s remarkable that france has several players with african roots, connection, surnames.. fuck I feel horrible :(maquito
    • Its OK Maquito.tank02
    • If Nigeria had 9 of 11 white players, you'd comment and call it a European team and no one would have an issue. They're French, but they're Africans. So what.set
    • It's like the people that jump to get offended by maquito's comment are implying that somehow being African is a bad thing...set
    • Otherwise why is his comment offensive?set
    • if their parents were Dutch or German you would never here about it. Identity politicsDillinger
    • i don't think the comment is racist, but it the context of a reply to a post stating that all the remaining teams are European it appears to suggest that thekingsteven
    • French team is less French because of it's ethnic diversity when they've actually opposed racial quotas on the national team on the basis of them beingkingsteven
    • constitutionally very un-french.kingsteven
    • Sarkozy said "setting quotas would be the end of the Republic" etc. As daft as national football is, the diversity of their team is IMO a better reflection onkingsteven
    • France than how well they kick a ball around a pitch... To make a jump from 'European teams' to 'European ethnicity' is a bit short sighted right?kingsteven
    • Given that it's also a frequent jumping off point for racist cuntery, without the context of maquito's later reply, tank was just right to call it out.kingsteven
    • D'accord @king.maquito
    • +1 @kingfadein11
