What happened

Real Madrid's forward Kylian Mbappé has been heavily criticized by Spanish and French far right politicians for refusing to fully wear a t-shirt supporting residents of Ceuta, a Spanish territory bordering Morocco grappling with a migration crisis. Mbappé said he wore the t-shirt partially rolled up to show solidarity with "all the immigrants who have lost their lives".
