One of the most complete midfield performances you will see here, the control of the ball, the retention, the awareness of every player, the pass selection. here is a player working at the peak of his powers
in my opinion i think euro 2000 he was the best player in the world. he was better tha r9, figo and everyone. he had feet that was just amazing to watch. he could do stepovers like he wasnt even trying. best CAM that ever kicked a football
Funny how perfection naturally rehearses its rhythms. Anelka's' over the line goal and his actual goal were near identical. Zidane had programmed it into their weaponry. Zidane was head and shoulders. Those were the days. Quality.
Thanks so much for posting this video. I was there on the night and Zidane was outstanding and it’s amazing I can see the performance in detail again. The English players were eclipsed that night and had no one near the quality to stop the control and vision of Zidane or the speed of France’s play on the night. I guess Scholes must have been injured at the time?
Zidane played amazingly well here, consistently excellent passing and foraying further forward and with more flamboyance as the match went on. Barely a pass intercepted, his poise and touch were excellent. France as a whole seemed to be on terrific form, a great team performance.
Great video... Zidane was a genius in his prime... thanks for sharing 👍 The only thing I'd suggest is maybe move your watermark to the corner of the screen as it can be a bit distracting when watching the video 🙏
I think Arsene Wenger said you could give the ball to zidane at any height 3 feet either side of him, and he would take it down with an immaculate first touch. Pure class. KdB is the best midfielder in the world today and even he doesnt come close to Zizou for me.
Alas! I was in the fourth grade of basic education when I watched this meeting at my uncle's house on the French TV channel TF1, Time passes quickly 😢😐🇬🇧🇫🇷
