FRANCE WINS RUSSIA 2018 FIFA WORLD CUP



With 64 games played, the final game of the 2018 FIFA World cup was action packed characterized by the 12th own goal of the competition (the first ever at a World cup final) and the 24th penalty of the competition.




Goals from Antoine Griezmann, Kylian Mbappe and Paul Pogba ensured that France beat Croatia 4:2



Mario Mandzukic was on the score sheet at both sides, scoring an own goal and stealing the ball off Hugo Lloris, adding to Perisic's equalizer.


These two teams had arguably, the best players of the tournament; Kylian Mbappe (young player of the tournament) and Luka Modric (most valuable player).


Didier Deschamps has now won the World cup as a player and a coach, both titles separated by 2 decades.


Yesterday, Belgium beat England 2:0 to seal the third place and a personal award for Thibaut Courtois (golden glove)
