Paraguay denies
Paraguayan coach Gustavo Alfaro rejects this accusation. He acknowledges tensions during the match but denies any insult directed at Didier Deschamps' mother. He claims to have heard nothing of the sort. He also asserts that he would have intervened if such remarks had been made: "No, no, no, no. We can't stoop so low in football. I thought you were talking about arguments between players. I greatly admire and respect Didier Deschamps. Of course, there have been disagreements, but no, no, no. Honestly, personally, I didn't hear anything like that. I don't think so, because I know my coaching staff: we don't stoop to that kind of low. Football isn't war. If I had heard something like that, I would have opposed it. No, no, no… It's unacceptable under any circumstances."
Words that are hard to believe, given the lamentable attitude displayed by the Paraguayans, constantly trying to get under the French team's skin…
