It was supposed to be Ronaldo's tournament, he burst into the scene, and was immense in the World Cup. But it was some guy named Zidane who fluked his way to the top. Mind you, he was pretty mediocre leading to the final. Oh well.
Personal preferences, just that. Then again, the only French players I ever care about are Gorcuff, Ribbery and Benzama.
