Emmanuel Macron celebrated France's victory over Croatia in the World Cup final with his own animated display of patriotism.
The French president was seen wildly gesticulating from the VIP area in the stands next to a more subdued Vladimir Putin, the Russian leader, and Kolinda Grabar-Kitarović, Croatia's president.
Before embracing the players after the final whistle - and opting to kiss 19-year-old goalscorer Kylian Mbappé on the head - Mr Macron was pictured pumping his fists in the air as he looked down on the packed Luzhniki Stadium in Moscow.
As his team collected the cup on the pitch he joined Mr Putin and Mrs Grabar-Kitarović in handing out the winners and runners-up medals. Macron was then filmed celebrating in the French changing rooms where he gave the following speech:
"You made the country proud. You've made all the country go out! So now, I tell you, 66 million French watched you! You are examples for a lot of young people. You'll never be the same. Now this example, you're going to spread it!"
