⚡ Tactical Formation Read
The 1998 World Cup semi-final between France and Croatia is remembered for one remarkable fact: the two decisive goals were scored by a right-back. Lilian Thuram — one of the greatest defenders of his generation — had never scored for France before this match. He scored twice in 23 second-half minutes to send the host nation to the Final.
