France win FIFA World Cup 2018 ...

France lifted their second title since 1998 after beating Croatia 4-2 in the FIFA World Cup 2018 final at the Luzhniki Stadium on Sunday.

Goals from Kylian Mbappe, Antoine Griezmann, Paul Pogba and an own-goal by Mario Mandzukic gave France the win in an entertaining clash. 

Croatia scored twice but that didn't help their cause as their dream of lifting their maiden World Cup trophy didn't materialise. The first half saw France lead through Mandzukic's own-goal and Ivan Perisic levelled for Croatia. 

Griezmann scored from the spot to restore France's lead at half-time. The second half saw plenty of goals but France held their nerves to see them lift the World.
