Argentina clinched victory against France in the final of the tournament. The Sky Blue and Whites beat the Les Bleus 4-2 in a penalty shootout after a very tough encounter which ended 3-3 after extra time.

German Bundesliga club, Bayern Munich, have since posted a message of support for their 26-year old winger, Kingsley Coman.

Coman’s penalty was saved by Argentina goalkeeper Emiliano Martinez, while Tchouameni’s penalty went wide.

Bayern Munich, who are German Bundesliga Champions, posted: “FC Bayern strongly condemn the racist comments made towards Kingsley Coman.


“The FC Bayern family is behind you, King. Racism has no place in sport or our society.”
