The Frenchmen have done it, and after 20 long years, the World Cup is theirs for the taking yet again! The scoreline ended 4-2 in an electric final encounter against Croatia.

An own goal from Mario Mandzukic set France’s hopes rolling before Croatia equalized with a stunning effort from Perisic.

However, the first-half had more drama to hold, as a VAR decision from the referee ensured that Antoine Griezmann was able to fire away a penalty to give France the lead.

A World Cup final that the world will never forget, as the second half had Paul Pogba and teenage sensation Kylian Mbappe give France the assured goals to ensure a victory.

But it wasn’t all over, as finals have been tricky for goalkeepers as of late, and Hugo Lloris’s mistake ensured that Mandzukic was able to find a goal in the right net for a change. But it was too little too late at the end for Croatia, and football’s finest prize went France’s way.

Here’s how Twitter responded to the absolutely thrilling game.
