Thank you for making this video. I remember this was my first WC and I got to love football just a year or two before being 8 years old. That final made no sense even back then, Brazil looked nothing like it was the whole tournament before. Later I watched it many times and it's obvious they threw the match. I believe it was the mix of everything you've mentioned, bribery, sponsors, throwing, fatigued and stressed out players. France was a very good team but not even close to that Brazil. Ronaldo should've been the official GoaT, damn that riggery and curse that horrible injury. R9 is still a legend, but looking back at that 1998 always feels painful and unfair.
This doccumentary has to continue coz it answers the question as to why Argentina won this World Cup. There's no way Karim had to be dropped for Giroud even after declaring that he was fit. That game against the Netherlands too. Again, how come Portugal's refs against Morocco had all refs from Argentina? Clearly, it seems Portugal were the sole team that had refused to be part of the Fifa script for obvious reasons. Infantino must go home
The last goal France scored was passed onto mbappe with his French teammates hand following the corner. But no one saw it until now that of course people can re-watch it and has gone viral. If anyone was rigged it's argentina and messi from a winning goal and a golden boot. U Muppets
1998 was my first betting tryout, so i clearly remember how fcked it was.. I put all the money on brasil even after 1 nil down, 2 nil down.. Its a horrible memory
I did wonder how France could be so 'sleepy' during the first half of the finals match. Also, Mbappe seemed weirdly affected during the awards, after the match.
It is disheartening to think that matches are rigged, and I wonder how players, so good at football, on a world stage, could even hold themselves back.
The world of people is corrupt in so many big and small ways I guess, and perhaps footballers are pawns in some way. Sad, if true.
Nike did the same thing with Michael Jordan that is why he is so overrated today. All a ploy to sell those ugly shoes . They even pressured nba to change the rules of the game so it could b easier for Michael fraudon to hav it easier
But messi is adidas. If your theory is true, is more likely that WC is planned for mbappe to win it, thats why he got 2 penalties in the final. But nike didn't take into account super performance of di Maria and Emi Martinez so their plan didn't work.

They kept on using brazil logo with 5 stars. During that time Brazil only have 4 stars.
2 blatant handballs by the so called Goat…
Mostly bs…
France win the first world cup when a Frenchman became fifa president. Coincidence??
That France '98 final was the weirdest one I've seen.
Greed for money ruins everything 😭😭

That R9 stat at 21 years old is mind boggling
1998 was my first betting tryout,
so i clearly remember how fcked it was..

Its a horrible memory
I think they probably put some cannabis in his food, that's why he couldn't breathe

Thuram pen against croatia was a payoff to get in the final, ive been saying it ever since.

Edmundo was quite a character and a fantastic player. You should make a video about "O Animal"
2002 World Cup is simply a rigged tournament in football history. It was fixed for Brazil by FIFA
I'm gonna stop supporting world cup and watch turtlkes laying eggs at Galapagos.
Ronaldo should not have played in the Final of 1998 WC. It's a shame Romario wasn't available
Ronaldo had an epileptic seizure. It is not corruption. Epilepsy is not corruption.
Everything you say is invalidated by Brazil Germany 2014: Brazilian players have issue handling pressure while playing for their country
11:05 cell phone in France 1998?!?? You must be kidding me. The network was very bad anyway..

There's no way Brazil would throw the match for any amount of money, it's like a religion to them.
Are there books written about this case?

I love your videos but this one is very clickbaity.
Happy New year
Lots of revisionist history in this video
he had a panic attack
Ronaldon was poisoned….and French players took some medicine during the game… who wach game remember
my god, how can you guys believe on this shit?
Your voice sounds annoying as hell.
France were the far better team than Brazil in 98. That is why they lost.
People say it all excuses, but i remember just before the match there was some strange shit going on, reported around the Brazil team
