France don't half like to leave it to the last minute.

Antoine Griezmann headed home in the 90th minute to put them 1-0 up against a resolute Albania. But if anyone thought the Atletico Madrid striker's header was the clinching goal, then they hadn't banked on Dmitri Payet popping up at the death. The West Ham star left it late to score the winner in the opener against Romania last week. But Payet sealed the deal at the death yet again with a goal six minutes into injury time to give France a more comfortable-looking win on paper. What a difference seven minutes made for the hosts who were staring down the barrel of one the most profligate 0-0- draws since the 80s... https://twitter.com/OptaJoe/status/743179776140185600 It was a lovely header from the unmarked Griezmann who struck the killer blow just before the 90 minute mark to send Les Blues into raptures... https://twitter.com/drewhockridge/status/743189354181496832?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw But Payet was not going to be outshone on the night at the Stade Velodrome and bagged his second of the tournament. https://twitter.com/WestHamStats/status/743192991590977536 His hammers boss Slaven Bilic couldn't contain himself... https://twitter.com/Soccertips_/status/743193199469010944 The win put France through to the last 16 and everyone was quite rightly praising Payet... https://twitter.com/OptaJohan/status/743186438611673088 https://twitter.com/itsbrownbill/status/743189472917979136 https://twitter.com/marinespch/status/743189467385765888 https://twitter.com/Rex_Dripp/status/743189454861574145 https://twitter.com/jayzamani26/status/743189454848954368 https://twitter.com/GFFN/status/743187887500435456  

But many people aren't convinced by France...
