Griezmann backs France to go all the way

Antoine Griezmann insists France can win Euro 2016 as long as they play like they did in the second half against the Republic of Ireland.

The hosts will face shock quarter-finalists Iceland on Sunday evening, with a place in the semi-final against Germany up for grabs.

And Griezmann, who scored twice in the 2-1 victory over Ireland which saw the hosts come back from a goal down to book their place in the quarters, believes that if the team play like they did after the break in that game, they can lift the trophy on July 10. 

"We have a great team with lots of quality players and the coach knows it," Griezmann, 25, told UEFA's official website. "He always tries to play the best team.

"For the first half we were poor and in the second it was a very different French team. It was the French team that can go all the way.

"So, if we keep proving ourselves that way, with that desire, I am sure that we can go all the way."
