Antoine Griezmann has reacted to France's incredibly dull World Cup encounter against Denmark in brutally honest fashion.

Denmark vs. France played out for the first 0-0 of the 2018 World Cup. And it was f***ing boring. Literally nothing to report on the Group C game.

Both sides picked up a point, and advance to the knockout round. France as Group winners and Denmark as runners-up.

And following the match, Griezmann gave a frank assessment of the World Cup fixture.

He said: "I am used to playing this way with my club. It is true that it was not very nice to watch. I am sorry for people.

"In the second half, Denmark wanted to sure up a draw. We weren't about to go and tire ourselves by pressing them. Both teams were qualified, nothing else needed to be done."

Denmark vs. France got social media talking. And it's not positive:

The 37/38th game of the World Cup between France and Denmark is the first goalless draw of the tournament. A record that surely will never be beaten.

France and Denmark should get automatic elimination for a nil nil

FIFA have found France and Denmark guilty of playing the most boring game at the World Cup. Their punishment will be to rewatch the match right after their game.

Rumour has it that France and Denmark are in danger of being thrown out of the World Cup for offences to the beautiful game.
