Lol Zidane and Henry were incompatible with each other on the pitch. So much so that the French media made rumors that there were rifts between the Arsenal French players camp and Zidane. Henry wants the midfield to give the ball to him early while Zidane wants to dribble with the ball all the time.

I respect your opinion. I think it"s complicated to compare two different generations, football has changed a lot between the early 80's and the late 90's, all I'm saying is that Platini's generation was world class too. Giresse, Tigana, Fernandez, Genghini, Trésor, Bossis, Amoros, Six, Rocheteau, Bats, etc... those players may not be as world famous as the 96-00 generation but from a french point of view they were legendary. France-Netherlands 1981 France - West Germany 1982 France-Belgium 1984 France-Yugoslavia 1984 France-Portugal 1984 France-Uruguay 1985 France-USSR 1986 France-Hungary 1986 France-Italy 1986 and the masterpiece: France-Brazil 1986

[@oldskoolmusicnostalgia]

@@magikmalick you are right and in the 1980s the level of competition France had to face was insane compared to the late 1990s. The Brazil of Tele Santana, Maradona's Argentina, West Germany, Enzo Bearzot's Italy were monsters too.

It's interesting to see how great teams are mythologized. This France defence is (rightly) considered one of the greatest of all time but Thuram gave away a number of cheap penalties throughout the tournament and the entire defence, especially the great Desailly, were at 6s and 7s for Denmark's first chance in this game. Had Denmark converted that chance and gone on to eliminate France I wonder how differently this France team would be remembered

[@jeromelefevre6594]

the defense you mentioned never lost a game when playing all together... is this answering to your question....?

[@FootkerSnooball]

France would've still had good chance of going through even with a loss here as 3 teams would've finished on 3 points and that's if France didn't take last game as seriously like they didn't in the end because they were already through. And that's also irrelevant because not only did 🇫🇷 not lose this game they won it 3-0. So I think they were good enough for at least a draw here even if they had conceded that early chance. A draw wouldn't have been damaging for them at all. 🇩🇰 had an awful Euro2000. Who would've thought 2 years later roles would be reserved (apart from Denmark going on to win the tournament but I mean Frabce were awful in WC2002 and Denmark at least in group stage were the opposite and even Tommason scored against 🇫🇷 this time).
