>There never will be a better team than France 98
Holly shit. So glad I'm French and grew up watching the best team ever. 98-06, those were the days
didnt the guy in the top right score the third goal in 98?
98 was the best final of all time
>>68775313
yeah, emmanuel petit
Who here didn't rate Bartez?
>>68775355
yaaa hell yeah
Americans usually pull for France when it gets deep in the WC, we still remember York

90's keepers:
Kahn > van der sar > schmeichel > barthez
FACT
>>68775150
Pretty based that we schooled them ahead of time at Le Tournoi
>>68775395
i remember him saving loads of penalties and kicking his boots against the posts
>going out of your way to poison an opponents key player so you can win

98 France were amazing not just for their on he field play, but for how they were able to psyche out the opposition star players.
Mind fucking Ronaldo before the Finals is still the greatest chess move in football history

>>68775489
kahn wasnt a "90's" keeper
he only became the starting keeper after the 98 wc was over and köpke retired
>>68775150
I'm Slovenian and can point to Zidane, Blanc, Thuram, Petit, Bartez, Lizarazu, Deschamps, Gourcoff (?) , Desailly (?)..
Almost everyone. Goat team.
>>68775635
This is the correct answer, and I can't stand Spain
the but en or against paraguay
the tense 0-0 with penalty shootout against italy
the twist against croatia
the huge victory against brazil
that was just the perfect first world cup for a french kid. plus the team was cool, not spoiled brats or wannabe gangsters
>>68775635
>995 passes
>89% ball possession
>>68777053
But en or against Italy
France-England 2004
France-Italy 2006
I will never forget these matches.
>>68776357
Gourcuff? You mean Guivarch I guess.
Also Djorkaeff and Karembeu.

>>68775150
>98-06, those were the days
didn't they completely fuck up the 2002 world cup?
>>68775489
Barthez in a top 4? wtf?
He wouldn't even fit in the top 10
Overrated bald cunt

>>68777728
everybody fucked up at the 2002 WC
except the mighty Germans of course
>>68777728
zidane was injured if I remember correctly
>>68788312
That's a part of it, but still not enough to explain that absolute disaster.
Between 2000 and 2004, they were pretty much the absolute gods if friendlies. I still remember how they annihilated Germany 3-0 in Germany, Portugal 4-0 in Portugal, or England 2-0 in England.
Too bad that, on the meantime, they were the joke of actual tournaments that counts.
>>68775150
>Only 3 (Three) black guys
What are you? Racist?
good thing you didnt post the same pic from the final because Blanc not being there upsets me so much
Brazil 98 was better than France 98
>>68775150
>Best French team
>Won because Romario was injured and Ronaldo got sick kek.
>>68789589
Don't worry, there was Henry, Trézéguet, Diomède, Vieira and Lama on the bench.
Also, Zidane has Algerian roots, and Djorkaeff Armenian+Mongol roots.
