The French national team was crowned world champions after defeating an underdog Croatian team 4-2 in the World Cup final in Moscow on Sunday, capturing its second World Cup title and its first since it hosted the 1998 tournament 20 years ago. Les Bleus manager Didier Deschamps was the captain in 1998 and on Sunday he became the third to ever win the World Cup as a player and coach.

In a match that was very entertaining in all ramifications, an own goal, a goalkeeper indescribable error, pitch invaders,a penalty, France won a defiant Croatia to be named Champions of the world the second time in twenty years. It was a final that had everything Russia 2018 has been celebrated for.
