World Cup 2018: Antoine Griezmann taunts Argentina with customary Fortnite ‘L dance’ after opening scoring in France 4 Argentina 3
French striker is one of a host of players to celebrate goals with moves inspired by hit video game
ANTOINE Greizmann was at it again celebrating his goal for France against Argentina by doing the "L dance".
The 27 year-old opened the scoring in the last 16 game against the South Americans in Kazan, converting a penalty after Kylian Mbappe was hauled down by Marcos Rojo with what was the first of seven goals.
And Griezmann, with his second goal of the tournament, showed how big a fan he is of the hugely popular video game Fortnite by pulling out the dance move.
Fortnite is a multi-player online game in which players battle to remain the last person alive.
The move is supposed to troll the opponent by gloating after killing another player on the game.
It originated from the horror film "It" when a main character did the dance but with an added "loser sign".

The Atletico Madrid forward has been doing the dance all season for club and country.
Before the tournament, Greizmann bagged 32 goals and ended speculation about his future by snubbing a move to Barcelona to sign a new long-term deal at the Wanda Metropolitano.
Angel Di Maria got Argentina back into game with a stunning 30-yard drive which is officially the longest strike of the tournament so far.
However it didn't prove enough with France eventually emerging as 4-3 winners after a belting game in which Kylian Mbappe stole the show with a brace.
