The 2018 FIFA World Cup Russia™ treated football lovers to 169 goals in 64 matches – and fans around the world have chosen Benjamin Pavard's as the best of the tournament.

In an online poll where over three million FIFA.com users casted their votes, Pavard's outside-of-the-foot rocket for France against Argentina, in which the 22-year-old displayed marvellous technique, has been voted the Hyundai Goal of the Tournament.

The goal selected by FIFA.com users was France's equaliser against Argentina in the Round of 16, which levelled the game at 2-2 as Les Bleus went on to record a 4-3 victory in Kazan and book their place in the quarter-finals.

VISUAL STORY: Perfect Pavard

“The ball bounced up as it came to me. I didn’t even think about it. I just tried to get over it and keep it down," Pavard told FIFA.com after France's Round of 16 thriller with Argentina. "I was trying to hit it in the direction it came from, which is what the strikers always tell me. I didn’t think it over, and when it went in I just felt so happy.”
