Bittersweet, as a main character dies at the end and the finale is his funeral. The finale is upbeat, but the death is still tragic.

As a result of his cancer, Jean gets nosebleeds a couple of times towards the end of the movie.
Additionally, Xavier has to wear medical tape as a result of being punched and you can see blood on the tape.

Joël calls Fred something along the lines of a "plastic surgery diva" and has a whole scene of being transphobic, but he comes around.

Matthias uses the r word, but his lawyer/PR person tells him to stop. He equates it with disability (which isn't better) and she tells him again to stop.

Xavier is given poppers. He consents but it doesn't seem that he totally understands what poppers are.

Jean pushes himself too far in the final game of the movie. His death is due to other factors, but he may have lived longer had he not pushed himself.

The guys party hard the night before the last match. Xavier takes poppers. Cedric takes something (which I'm not clear on). Jean takes prescription painkillers (which he has been prescribed, though he does take a lot (but maybe that's how it works)) for his cancer.

The coach is forced to work on the team because he uses the f slur on TV. He uses it throughout the first half of the movie but eventually calms down. A lot of the gay characters also use it (and other homophobic slurs) casually. The men debate whether or not they can use the d slur when talking about the rival team which is made up of lesbians.
