Varane’s maturity/composure is always so impressive. Walks Mbappe away there, then does the same with Pogba…

In the quarter final of World Cup 2014, Varane lost a duel to Mats Hummels in a set piece which resulted in Germany’s 1-0 victory.
Exactly 4 years on, he beats his marker and scores a similar header as France take a precious lead vs Uruguay. Life smiles for those who work hard.

Feel bad for Uruguay! Shown a lot of heart in this World Cup so far. Surely missing @ecavaniofficial this match. And you can’t silence the likes of @antogriezmann for too long can you?Its not over yet though especially if a certain @luissuarez9 has anything to do about it! #Fifa
