FIFA World Cup 2018, France vs Australia highlights: With Antoine Griezmann and Paul Pogba scoring the goals for France, the 1998 World Champions have beaten Australia 2-1 in their first encounter at FIFA World Cup 2018 in Russia. France were helped by technology in their endeavour to get three points as it was for the first time that a VAR review was successfully taken by any team in a World Cup match. It allowed a penalty to France which was taken by Griezmann. Umtiti’s hand ball inside the box gave Australia a penalty as well, as Jeddinak scored the equaliser. But France’s best friend, technology, came to the rescue once more, after Paul Pogba flicked a goal past Matthew Ryan. The referee was convinced by the goal by the goal-line technology.
