The French won the World Cup after 20 years to add a second cup to their tally, the first one going way back to 1998. France was one of the favourites but lower on the list of potential winners. They beat all odds and beat Croatia who had been wonderful throughout the tournament.
Since then Twitterati has been going crazy on the East Europeans winning the most coveted cup in Football that is every player’s dream. Popular people worldwide and media houses took to social media to congratulate the young side in their Cup triumph. Moreover, even the winners posted about their triumph.

Dear France,
Congratulations on winning the #WorldCup.
80% of your team is African, cut out the racism and xenophobia.
50% of your team are Muslims, cut out the Islamophobia.
Africans and Muslims delivered you a second World Cup, now deliver them justice.

Something for the French to be really proud of…
France forward Kylian Mbappe has donated his full #WorldCup earnings ($550,000) to a charity that gives sports opportunities to disabled and hospitalised children.

Steven Nzonzi had to ask the other France players to let N’Golo Kanté hold the trophy and take pictures, because Kante was too shy to ask himself. Man…Kante is something else, love him!!🤣🤣 pic.twitter.com/YOpL6Kl2W8
