antoine griezmann scored a goal.t was the next three goals that delivered the world cup back into their hands. people doubted france going into this tournament but he managed to silence the critics. critics were a lot of for this french team in this final. it was an odd final, to be honest. the french les bleus had a little luck. everyone says you need a little to win those big competitions. there is that antoine griezmann kick that was step elected for that first goal. there was that penalty people are debating whether that was a penalty. the referee deciding it was. zmann ane grie opportunity to score a goal. the french had help a lot. croatia -- had help and luck. croatia, in the first half, were the better team. that does not better prayer -- that does not matter. antoine griezmann said we do not care whether people think we have the most beautiful football. to win and about is we sought throughout this competition. it is not just the french team. a lot of teams who were supposed to be the most beautiful team on

because you can play the ball into him and he's you know like kind of a hold up and then griezmann has the ability to work off of that and create opportunities so they're dangerous from a lot of different places here i think france is not really going to they're going to play their game and they're not going to be you know they're going to be confident in what they can do and i think it'll be it's pretty even match up it's going to be a good game to watch that's for sure probably one of the best for this tournament i agree on that is. belgium the first upon and four for france where they really finally have to show all their quality. i think they could be anybody should have been showing although you played against argentina too and you know. i think they've started they've been improving every game that's important in a world cup you want to get better as the tournaments advances so they have been

it was put away by griezmann and that felt like a pivotal moment. croatia protester, france looked a profit. a 2—goal advantage and then kylian mbappe made it so. the first teenagers to score in a world cup final since pele. a final twist with hugo lloris getting into trouble. as the rain and curtain came down on moscow, a second—half storm was enough to take this will carp back to france. what a storm that was, when the heavens at simply open. a clap of thunder went off at the exact moment hugo lloris lifted the exact moment hugo lloris lifted the world cup. it seemed the footballing goats were having their say and i sure they approved. it has been a fantastic month. delivered without a hitch. the french stars kept their heads. their core of players will have a fantastic chance to wind back to back world cups in qatar in four years time for the first time in 60 years. it is a young squad. we have seen that the rise of the underdogs. fifa rankings turned on their heads. the reigning champions germany, former champions spain, brazil, all stumbled. 0n

griezmann, mbappe. he's talking to the people who are talking about him, hammering him for the last year. that is strength of character, thatis year. that is strength of character, that is what has been shown today, throughout france are world cup champions for the second time. beating croatia 4—2 in a thrilling final in moscow. these were the jubilant scenes in paris —— 20 years on since their first world cup triumph. the us president, donald trump, has left the uk on air force one. he's on his way to meet the russian president in helsinki.// the prime minister has revealed the advice she was given from us president donald trump about brexit. he said we should sue the eu. france has won the world cup for the second time. thank you very much. the 64th game after an enthralling world cup tournament. 31 days after it started, the french finishing things off, finishing croatia of 4-2. things off, finishing croatia of 4—2. croatia had such heart. i do not think it with stamina that let them down, they came

a very good free kick from antoine griezmann, but the french have the lead.t that. just past his outstretched hand. so france have an early lead after 17 minutes. i'm not sure if the england players will have caught that goal, because just as they kicked off here in moscow, they were just arriving back. they left their st petersburg training camp, and that was the plane that brought them back to birmingham international. the fa has said there will be no proper reception or anything like that, but those players just starting to come off the plane now after reaching their first world cup semifinal since 1990, falling short against the croatians. 2—1 in injury time. the croatians are chasing this game now, france leading 1—0 here in the world cup final. here in moscow. that is the england players waiting to get off the plane there. france leading here and we will have more updates on bbc news, but plenty of other sport going on. let's go to the bbc sports centre. let's get straight to the men's tennis final at wimbledon. just over two hours played there. novak d

when france won a free kick griezmann whipping it into the area towards the near post area and. with a flick into the far corner keep a standing no chance really it was a fantastic scene really in the subsequent i think a lot of people affected expected rather quite a tense start perhaps a bit cagey a bit nervous but certainly both sides very much have been going for france a couple of chances with griezmann in the box by really being too good is really put on the page you see getting along of the flanks putting the ball in the box. but you know one will be comfortable getting that goal just before half time and we can see how that goal actually went down with the fans from both sides. who. i was. i. have had their own chances in the case of french keeping hugo lawrie kept out. martinkus series with the stunning star save the one i want to thank you very likely was fantastic he managed to get all the way across to the right hand post. all the way and then get up and get rid of the rebound well a. full on a full stretch keeping it out and then stopping the the rebound as well and

griezmann made a quick recovery for the free kick. goes off ahead of croatia and in for the first goal. 28th minute, croatia looking for the equalizer. and with the left foot kick to the only place that ball could go into the net. tied up in the 34th minute. france with the corner kick. got knocked out of bounce. immediately signaled for a handball and after a lengthy review, determining the ball did indeed hit their hand. france was awarded a penalty kick and griezmann gives him the big lead for good. the french president emmanuel macron jacked out of his mind, let the party begin in paris. france beats croatia 4-2 to win their second world cup title. well it is not exactly the world cup statue, but they are awarding a trophy to the winner of the bay bridge series. after this weekend, the a's, they are down two wins down with two more to go in oakland to claim their prize. matt williams, first time in the east bay side of the rob rhode island just doesn't look right, right? and going the other way. brandon crawford will trot home. 1-

last match they dealt with cristiano ronaldo, the main threat from france will came from antoine griezmann was too hot to handle for argentina, his speed tormented them and it'll be interesting to see how uruguay cope him. uruguay also have a potent attack led by luis suarez, although there remains a serious doubt over there remains a serious doubt over the fitness of edinson cavani although he is training here today. apart from the rest of the group. he scored both goals against portugal before limping off late on in that match. with both sides potentially having an a list strike force it could come down to who has the best defence and so far it is uruguay with the edge in that department. the second quarterfinal on friday is just as tantalising. brazil take on belgium. all eyes will be on neymar — who has had people talking about his play—acting as much as his goals at the tournament. brazil are the favourites to lift the cup for what would be a record sixth time but forward willian knows it won't be easy to get past chelsea teammate thibault courtois in the belgium goal. it is difficult

keep to keep the ball to assist griezmann for a great chance he was very very mature but we can probably see the pictures for the goal now i mean it's another goal from a set piece of this world cup as you know set pieces are something. that you can train. your dog damage. more of your physical condition and when you are in a competition like these where the cumulation the footy comes you have just to recover then is very difficult to have training sessions of development of tactical situations that create even more spending of energy. opening the door for more small injuries so what can you train said please you don't run. you don't spend any of your energetic forces you do it you do it in a relaxed way you do it you do it as parts of your. recovering sessions and you go for the set pieces. you said talking about energy as well i mean getting a bath again showed he had some tricks and flicks as well he proved that he is a forty something for the future for france and this french team is easier you know looks looks. play with twenty years of football but. must be below twenty five. he pl

they of course have reason but one of the most interesting players griezmann have to work closely with sports for me country in midfield he stick effective because he's the balance he's filling all the rooms all the pieces he runs the socks off and he's just the guy which is maybe the key factor against belgium side which is expression be on the side of the counter take dangerous so county will be the guy who would close that down and i think it's a very open game fifty fifty i can't think of favorite all right but it has been an incredible wild cup so far if enjoyed every moment but you have any moments that were just your favorite yes i think the whole situation where russia was like the laughingstock of their own country nobody had them on the list to actually go anywhere and suddenly the whole country is behind them the performed outstanding church yourself did a great job but i think russia became a footballing country during that vote cup and i think that was true in the stadium the way the stadiums are built the whole world cup so for is a fairy tale and i'm actually very very p
