Congratulations to the 2018 FIFA World Cup champions: France! 🇫🇷
Over the past month, players from the men's national teams of 32 countries competed for top rank across 12 venues in 11 cities across Russia. With a total of 64 matches (and plenty of GOOOALS!), the games have culminated at Luzhniki Stadium in Moscow, where the French national team has won to become the 2018 World Cup champions.
This year's Doodle series celebrated the rich cultures and talent of all 32 participating countries by featuring guest artists hailing from each nation. We hope you've enjoyed all 32 Doodles throughout the games, each illustrating the artist's interpretation of, "What ⚽ looks like in my country."
Today's Doodle is a unique creation by our very own French Doodler, Helene Leroux, depicting, "What World Cup victory looks like in my country!"
Cheers to all the talented players around the world. See you next time!
Q&A with today's featured artist: Helene Leroux
Q: How does it feel for you and your fellow French peers to have won the 2018 World Cup?
A: It's super exciting of course!! It's also nice that it's happening 20 years after our first World Cup victory in 1998! I love that it brings French people closer together to share that moment of joy. Being away from France at the moment, it allows me to be a bit closer to my country in a way ;)
Q: What does your celebration Doodle depict & what inspired the elements you chose to include in it?
A: I had to represent the rooster, of course, which is the symbol of France and French football! He is running and jumping on a spinning football, which can be associated with the world spinning.
I wanted to also depict the Arc de Triomphe of Paris, which was very symbolic during the victory of 1998 as they projected images of the football players of the team right after they won.
And I wanted to use only the colors of the French flag: blue, white, and red!
Q: What do you hope people feel or take away from your Doodle?
A: I really want to give a sense of celebration in the Doodle, and hope it will make people want to party and pay tribute to the team's achievements!
Q: How will you celebrate the big win!?
A: I'm in San Francisco and the game is shown early in the morning, so I guess I have all day to go around the city to find all the French spots and French peers to celebrate with ;)
