Amazingly, that strike was Pavard’s first and only goal for France ever.
“I was trying to hit it in the direction it came from, which is what the strikers always tell me. I didn’t think it over, and when it went in I just felt so happy.” Pavard said, after his side’s triumphant 4-3 win against Argentina.
FIFA posted the video on twitter via their official handle, a goal worth watching over and over again.
