Zinedine Zidane with France National Team
Zidane was a member of the French football team in the 1998
World Cup, which France won, scoring two goals in the final
against Brazil. Two years later, he led his country to a second
major championship, winning Euro 2000. He has been elected three
times as FIFA World Player of the Year (1998, 2000, 2003).
Zidane is often considered to be the best footballer in the
world, and perhaps one of the most talented players of all time.
An elegant dribbler of the ball, Zidane's passing ability and
perfect balance make him one of the best playmakers in the world
and the natural successor of France's Michel Platini.
Injuries prevented him from reprising his 1998 performance in
the 2002 World Cup. France's defence of their trophy was one of
the most unsuccessful in World Cup history, the team being
eliminated in the First Round without scoring a single goal.
