After sixty years back to France to organize the World Cup soccer. In '38 Vittorio Pozzo's Italy won his second consecutive title, but the National Cesare Maldini has the same thickness and reach the tournament with the smash Baggio, convened by popular acclaim of the press, the papers of sparigliando Ct. It will follow a relay race with Alessandro Del Piero, almost never decisive in blue, and many regrets for its use in fits and starts, though he eventually stumbled out Italy on penalties to eventual champions, penalties like that in '90 and '94 condemn us, a disaster that will end only in 2006.
France is in Group C against Saudi Arabia, South Africa and Denmark, a group of over easily, with the wind at your back, winning three out of three with nine goals scored and only one now, that the Dane Laudrup.
the largest in Europe and South America are all, lack the Eastern teams, except for Bulgaria, while the Balkans are represented by Yugoslavia and Croatia, which will have a historic achievement. It
stir the elimination of Spain, by Nigeria and Paraguay, as well as that of Belgium and Holland to leave the road and Mexico. But the Africans are false lights and lose 4-1 against Denmark in the second round. On this side of the board eliminates Brazil Chile with the same result and then the Danes 3-2 in one of the best matches.
The battle between Argentina and England, increasingly felt after 86, ends in a penalty shootout for the South Americans, who then lost a handsome quarter-final against Holland he plays good football es'impone as a possible favorite.
The march of France, near the bottom of the board is slow but inexorable. Barely beat Paraguay with the network Blanc blended, then take out Italy on penalties, at the risk of succumbing to a feat of Roberto Baggio who sends a shot to the side on which nothing could Barthez. And as it happens per i predestinati ecco i due capolavori. Prima la semifinale contro la Croazia che passa in vantaggio ma cede alla doppietta del difensore Thuram. Poi la finale contro il Brasile, che si era imposto ai rigori con l’Olanda nell’altra semifinale.
Ronaldo, il giocatore più atteso, sta male, entra in campo ma non si regge in piedi e le ipotesi su quello che è accaduto negli spogliatoi si scatenano a bocce ferme, scivolando anche sull’idea di un doping sbagliato. Zidane gioca la sua partita monstre e con una doppietta regala ai francesi il primo titolo iridato.
Zizou, re per una notte
Zinedine Zidane è stato uno dei più grandi giocatori francesi e forse del mondo. Il forse è dovuto ai tanti holes blacks concerning his life away from the field on which some French journalists have tried to make light, revealing gray areas unedifying incense sample trans, of Algerian origin. The World '98 was asked to Ronaldo, but in the end it was his, though with some difficulties too, the expression of a character that hides repressed aggression. This is demonstrated by the expulsion against Saudi Arabia, down by two goals. A lot easier and quiet in which he committed a foolish foul as bad, to happen again with Juventus and France, putting a qualification in the Champions League and World Cup. The final with Brazil but will in the eyes of fans as his game, he had already lost the final two with the Bianconeri never failing to be decisive. The two publications in which the green-gold sinks are the icon of a career, for better or for worse. Two goals on completion of the victory of a French national multi-ethnic heritage of an old empire that gave the nation the greatest joy, repeated two years later with the Europeans.
Groundhog three
After playing with Vicenza, Fiorentina, Juventus and AC Milan, Roberto Baggio played his third world soccer player of Bologna, a great satisfaction for the city of Bologna that in '97-98 has never seen a Baggio first, well capable of scoring 22 goals in the league, personal record, though few decisive. After five seasons with Juventus and the two in Milan, the employment by rossoblu is up early for one of the greatest talents of Italian football, snubbed by the big teams and forced to fend for themselves in the suburbs, not the last time. The World Cup, to be frank, there Baggio is his own personal merits, but also through a press campaign unprecedented media s'imbizzarriscono at the thought that a champion like him not playing at least three world championships, the third place in the ' 90 and the second in '94, to his great credit. Thanks also to a Del Piero injured Roberto is taking place at the expense of Juventus alta la bandiera azzurra. Segna anche due gol, uno decisivo per il passaggio del turno contro il Cile, conquistandosi e battendo un calcio di rigore. Nei quarti di finale contro la Francia per poco non segna e butterà dentro il primo rigore della serie. Con Inter e Brescia il suo finale di carriera.
