France won the World Cup for the second time in spectacular style on Sunday by ending battling Croatia's dreams of a first major title with a 4-2 victory in one of the most entertaining and action-packed finals for decades. France triumphed thanks to an own goal from Mario Mandzukic, an Antoine Griezmann penalty awarded after a VAR review and second-half strikes by Paul Pogba and teenager Kylian Mbappe. Ivan Perisic and Mandzukic replied for Croatia. There were as many goals in 90-action-packed minutes in Moscow as in the last four finals combined, and three of those went to extra time. The game featured the first final own goal and the first VAR-decided spot-kick one that Croatia were furious about and that was arguably the turning point of the game. But the only statistic France will really care about is that the result makes them world champions for the second time following their triumph on home soil 20 years ago. #mfaoffootballexcellence #melbfa #smartgoalsfootball #sptfootball #melbournefootballacademy #preausportsaustralia #fifaworldcup #fifaworldcup2018

And then there were two. 63 games filled with drama, intrigue, set-piece goals and surprise results have determined our finalists: France and Croatia. It all comes down to this France and Croatia stand on the brink of greatness. Will Les Bleus rule the world again 20 years on or can Vatreni seal a fairy tale story in Moscow?

A special thank you to James Galanis for speaking to the Melbourne Football Academy students and parents. We are grateful for your time and effort, sharing your philosophy of teaching in the sport we love and proven in the success of your academy in the USA, Universal Soccer Academy, and as personal coach and mentor to Carli Lloyd, two-time Olympic gold medalist, FIFA Women’s World Cup Champion, 2015 & 2016 FIFA Player of the Year. Your insights into key attributes of a champion athlete and sharing personal stories of your training regime with Carli Lloyd was invaluable. Your advice to our students on how to apply themselves on and off the training ground was very enlightening for all. Thank you again for this exclusive opportunity. #melbfa #universalsocceracademy #sptfootball #mfaoffootballexcellence #melbournefootballacademy #smartgoalsfootball #footballforlife #JamesGalanis
