Raphael Varane and Antoine Griezmann scored as France advanced to a World Cup semi-final against either Belgium or Brazil after easing past Uruguay on Friday.
Following an opening passage high on energy but bereft of quality, Varane glanced home a Griezmann free-kick to open the scoring before the Atletico Madrid man doubled France’s advantage just after the hour mark in a moment to forget for Uruguay goalkeeper Fernando Muslera.
But Nigerians are happy with the victory at the Nizhny Novgorod Stadium as a revenge for Uruguay’s 4-2 penalty shoot-out win over Ghana in South Africa 2010 and for Egypt’s 1-0 defeat during the group stage in this year’s edition.
France : why are you crying boys?
Nigeria: Argentina beat we
Scores : France 4 Argentina 3
Ghana: Me too, Uruguay beat me
Scores: France 2 Uruguay 0
Are y’all happy now? ????✊?✊? — France2win (@painful_fact) July 6, 2018
