FIFA World Cup Qualifiers: Antoine Griezmann Shines in France Victory Over Finland

With a 2-0 victory over Finland, France has opened its world cup qualifying campaign in a style. Finland had a decent start and France was not expected to even match the pressure of two matches that were already in favor of the opponent. Finland saw an opportunity when Kylian Mbappe was injured and was kept out of the team.

Griezmann and Benzema formed a formidable partnership with credible acts of support. At the moment, Griezmann is France's most prolific goal scorer, with 41 goals to his name. The first goal came in the 25th minute and the second two minutes after halftime, which assured France's victory. The rumor has it that France got their magic spell of victory back in the World Cup qualifiers with two strikes from Antoine Griezmann.

FIFA World Cup is the biggest international football championship, which takes place every four years. The next FIFA World Cup will be held in 2022 for which the qualifiers have already started and will conclude by June 2022.
