The French Football Federation has condemned online racist abuse aimed at its players and promised to take steps after they were targeted due to France losing to Argentina in the FIFA World Cup final, as per Reuters. 

According to BBC, Kingsley Coman and Aurelien Tchouameni were targets of online racist abuse after both failed to convert their penalties during the shootout.

Emiliano Martinez saved Coman’s shot and Tchouameni’s kick went wide. 

France could not retain the title. 

“Following the World Cup final, several players of the French national team were subjected to unacceptable racist and hateful comments on social networks,” the FFF said on Twitter.
