The body governing football in the world, FIFA has taken a final decision on Antoine Griezemann’s goal against Tunisia in the final group game.
The French Football Federation submitted a complaint to FIFA asking that the goal which was disqualified by Video Assistant Referee in the game should be reinstated. The Atlético Madrid man, who came on as a second-half substitute, thought he had equalised in the 99th minute of the game but the goal was ruled out.
The result of the third group match between France and Tunisia last Wednesday was anecdotal, but the defeat of the Blues (0-1) was indeed approved by FIFA on Monday. By a press release, the international body has indeed rejected the appeal brought by the FFF after the canceled goal to Griezmann, without revealing the reason.
The game ended France’s unbeaten run at the World Cup which started from the Russia 2018 FIFA World Cup.
