ANTOINE Griezmann seakan tidak percaya tendangan keras ke gawang Uruguay ternyata berbuah gol cantik bagi Prancis, dan gol kedua tersebut terjadi lantaran keteledoran kiper Uruguay yang menganggap hasil sepakan kaki Griezmann ternyata masuk ke gawang, mengantar Prancis lebih dekat dengan impian Piala Dunia mereka.
Griezmann tak dapat menyembunyikan rasa kikuk di awal pertandingan melawan Uruguay setelah dia mengakui kecintaannya pada Uruguay dan budayanya, diperkuat lagi oleh persahabatannya dengan rekan satu tim di Atletico Madrid, Diego Godin dan Jose Gimenez.
Godin adalah ayah baptis untuk putrinya dan dia memeluk lawan-lawannya dengan emosi seperti itu di dalam terowongan stadion sebelum kick-off atas perannya sebagai pemain kunci di timnas Prancis seperti dilansir MailOnline.
ANTOINE Griezmann may like to sip yerba mate from a gourd and hang out grilling meat with his Uruguayan chums but his loyalties were not open to question as he claimed a goal and an assist to ease France closer to their World Cup dream.
Griezmann´s quandary had dominated the pre-match narratives since he admits to such deep affection for Uruguay and its culture, reinforced by his close friendship with Atletico Madrid teammates Diego Godin and Jose Gimenez.
Godin is godfather to his daughter and he embraced his opponents with such emotion in the tunnel before kick-off that French eyebrows might have been raised had it not been for such an emphatic contribution to the victory.
