France beat Croatia in the World Cup final and the media in the two countries celebrated/commiserated their teams' respective achievements.
FRANCE
L'Equipe who lead with 'an eternal happiness' accompanied by a picture of the moment that Les Bleus' captain Hugo Lloris lifted the World Cup trophy, it is a nod of the head towards 1998's iconic 'for eternity' front page after the French beat Brazil at Stade de France all those years ago.

In the capital, Le Parisien have gone for 'head in the stars' as Lloris hoists the trophy to the delight of teammates such as Mbappe and Giroud.

Meanwhile, fellow Paris-based publication Le Figaro have gone for a play on words with some of La Marseillaise's lyrics in 'the day of glory has arrived' and married that with the image of Lloris holding the World Cup above Giroud's head as the rain poured down at Luzhniki Stadium.

Ouest France, in the west of France, have taken a different approach and have instead gone for an image of Deschamps being thrown into the air by his players with a simple 'thank you!' directed towards their heroes.
