Antoine Griezmann "really happy" with 2018 World Cup success

Antoine Griezmann could not hide his delight as France landed the 2018 World Cup with a 4-2 win over Croatia on Sunday afternoon.

Antoine Griezmann could not hide his delight as France landed the 2018 World Cup on Sunday afternoon.

Les Bleus were the favourites ahead of the final with Croatia, and recorded a 4-2 victory in Moscow to claim the famous trophy for just the second time.

Griezmann scored France's second from the penalty spot in the 38th minute, and the Atletico Madrid forward was keen to pay tribute to Croatia following the clash at the Luzhniki Stadium.

"I do not know where I am! I am really happy. It was a very difficult match, Croatia had a great game. We came back and we managed to make the difference," Griezmann told reporters.

Griezmann, who committed his future to Atletico ahead of this summer's tournament, managed three goals and two assists in his six appearances at the 2018 competition.
