Few goals will be better than the one scored by Benjamin Pavard in the Argentina vs. France match in the round of 16 of the 2018 World Cup in Russia. The 22-year-old right back connected a cross from Lucas Hernández with his right foot from outside the box in the 56th minute to score for the second time in the match against Franco Armani.
The play started with a deep pass from Paul Pogba to Hernández, who got behind Cristian Pavón. Gabriel Mercado tried to cover, but just before the Argentine defender arrived, the Atlético de Madrid winger was able to execute the cross.

The ball went past Nicolás Otamendi and Nicolás Tagliafico, both unable to clear it effectively. That's why the ball continued its trajectory bouncing and ended up in a perfect position for Benjamin Pavard to break Armani's goal. The Stuttgart player sent the ball to the upper right angle of the goal defended by the River Plate goalkeeper.
