Watch: France players invade manager Didier Deschamps press conference, shower him with champagne after World Cup win

France national team players invaded the manager Didier Deschamps’s press conference after their final victory, chanting his name and showering him with drinks. 

Deschamps said France were "swimming in happiness" after his players interrupted his post-World Cup final press conference, dancing and showering their manager in drinks as they celebrated their 4-2 win over Croatia.

The coach was about to start speaking when the squad came into the room packed full of journalists at the Luzhniki Stadium in Moscow, with defender Benjamin Mendy leading the celebrations as he danced with his shirt off.

Deschamps tried to compose himself to give his view on France's second World Cup triumph - he was the captain of the team that won the trophy in 1998 by beating Brazil 3-0 in Paris.

Deschamps becomes just the third man to win the World Cup as a player and a coach, following in the footsteps of Brazil's Mario Zagallo and Germany's Franz Beckenbauer before him.

"It's a real pleasure, it is a very closed circle. We have had the same success, but they were two great players. I was not as attractive as a player but I still won titles."

"I am honestly so much happier to see the delight of the players. They are world champions. Kylian Mbappe is just 19, and I hope he will win it again but you never know." France's triumph is made even sweeter after they lost 1-0 to Portugal as hosts in the final of Euro 2016, although the majority of the squad in Russia were not there two years ago.
