"A Frenchman...": Paraguayan Senator doubles down on Mbappe
Celeste Amarilla del Boccia just can't help herself. After her racist insult a few days ago, the senator again attacks the superstar.
Kylian Mbappe has once again been subjected to severe insults from Celeste Amarilla del Boccia.
The Paraguayan senator had already made racist remarks against the French match-winner after Saturday's round of 16 match.

"Son of a B****"
The frustration over Paraguay's World Cup exit likely still runs deep for the senator.
During a plenary session, Amarilla doubled down: "When Orlando Gill came out in front of the whole world and humbly offered Mbappe his hand, that son of a b**** refused to shake it and yelled at him. That's not French, a Frenchman would never have done such a thing."
Investigations Launched
France's Sports Minister Marina Ferrari and Head of State Emmanuel Macron had already backed Mbappe after the initial statements, calling them "abhorrent" and "unworthy."
The French Football Federation announced its intention to take legal action against Amarilla. Following a complaint, the Paris public prosecutor's office has since launched investigations into public insult on racist grounds.
