France Took the Crown

France beat Argentina four to three In that game Mbappe was the key Then they defeated Uruguay two goals to nil As Uruguay's goalie let one spill In the semis it was Belgium they faced France headed one in with victory's embrace They were in the finals, but who would they play Would England beat Croatia and win the day? As it turned out, the three lions couldn't roar They were coming home with no trophy in store So the final was set, Croatia and France Two great teams would get their chance In the finals France took a free kick But when the Croatian defender did a head flick The ball ended up in his own goal! It seemed France would be on a roll Croatia responded with a brilliant strike It traveled so fast, it was rocket-like But France added 3 more to the score And they lifted the trophy once more!
