France celebrated the 2018 FIFA World Cup final victory over Croatia with Wizkid songs “Soco” on Sunday. Les Blues defeated the Blazers 4-2 at Luzhniki Stadium in Moscow as coach Didier Deschamps became only the third man in history to win the World Cup both as a player (1998) and as a manager, as he led his young but talented side to glory.
France’s victory can also be acknowledged as a triumph for the African continent as more than half the squad have an African origin, including goalscorers Manchester United midfielder Paul Pogba and PSG forward Kylian Mbappe. Les Bleus had defeated the two opponents that thrashed the Super Eagles in Russia the likes of Argentina [4-3] in the last 16 of the tournament and Croatia [4-2] in the final.
