Antoine Griezmann exorcized his demons by scoring a crucial penalty kick for France against Germany. The French striker gave Les Bleus the lead moments before the first half concluded with a well-placed shot, and he managed to join Michel Platini as the only players in the tournament's history to score more than four goals in a single UEFA Euro edition.
Here's how fans reacted to Griezmann's opener.
Moments later, Griezmann scored another goal for the hosts, practically giving him the tournament's Golden Boot.
With his goals tonight, France's No. 7 surpassed Zinedine Zidane's goal scoring total of 5 goals in all European Championship finals, and joined Platini as the only players to be involved in more than seven goals for a team in a single edition.
6 - Antoine Griezmann has now scored as many goals for #FRA at the European Championship finals as @ThierryHenry (6). Icons.

6 - Antoine Griezmann is the first player with six goals in one European Championship since Michel Platini in 1984 (9). Lightning.

" If someone pays €120M to sign Pogba, they should double that to sign Antoine Griezmann. What a player!"
Si pagan 120 por Paul Pogba, que paguen lo doble por Antoine Griezmann. ¡QUE JUGADOR!
