France 98 ( Final ) France VS Brazil 3-0

^ Brazil, the beaten finalists. Back row from left: Taffarel, Cesar Sampaio, Rivaldo, Aldair, Junior Baiano and Cafu. Front row from left: Ronaldo, Roberto Carlos, Leonardo, Bebeto and Dunga

^ France, the 1998 World Cup winners. Their line-up in the final. Back row from left: Zidane, Desailly, Leboeuf, Thuram, Guivarc'h and Petit. Front row from left: Karembeu, Djorkaeff, Deschamps, Barthez and Lizarazu.

^ Heavily criticized before the World Cup, coach Aime Jacquet now had his time of revenge. Here carried around the field holding the cup aloft.

^ A proud captain Didier Deschamps with Zidane and the trophy on a lap of honour.

^ Emmanuel Petit races clear to score France's third goal in the dying seconds of the match. The largest winning margin in a World Cup final since Brazil themselves outplayed Italy in 1970.

^ None of the creative Brazilian players produced anything in the first half. Leonardo was substituted at half time. Here challenged by Bixente Lizarazu.

^ Zidane with the ball attacked by Roberto Carlos. No Brazilians were able to cope with the elegant Frenchman in the final. It became the most one-sided final in modern times.

^ Zinedine Zidane outjumps Leonardo and heads France in front in the final. Zizou was never regarded as a particularly good player in the air, but having scored two headed goals in the final most people had to reconsider that.

^ Barthez and Ronaldo crashing into eachother in the final. Brazil found no way through the French defensive wall.


^ Rivaldo failed to connect well with Bebeto and Ronaldo in the final. Here challenged by Djorkaeff.
