The Atletico Madrid striker played a key role in his side's win in Moscow, converting their second goal of the night from the spot, sending in the free-kick that forced the opener and teeing up Paul Pogba for France's third.
Clearly burting with happiness, Griezmann took to Twitter and Instagram to share his feeling with the world, posting: "Champions of the world, Long live France!"
The game provided a redemption of sorts for Griezmann, who was photographed crying after France's exit at the quarter-final stage of the 2014 World Cup in Brazil.
He was brought to tears again on Sunday, but this time they were tears of joy as he celebrated becoming world champion.
