What a treasure frank is. Love him. The class and modesty. Really an open book.

Find someone in your life that loves you as much as Frank loves talking about winning the World Cup.

Enjoyed the stories. Wanted more from Frank. ❤

Frank is a National Treasure. He sounds like such a fun grandpa🎉

We joke about Frank talking about winning the World Cup, but it’s amazing how self aware he is to know how lucky and crazy it was, especially for him to win it

Frank should come in more often. He is always so funny at the studio

Lizarazu was proper quality

1998 was truly special 🎉Zidane was unbelievable!

I adore hearing Frank speak with such reverence and love for not only the most successful point in his career but also all the people who were there alongside him. It’s really touching and fascinating. Thank you to Frank and the whole ESPN FC crew for wonderful segments like this.

I really appreciate this piece of content right here I was in like my junior year of high school in 98 talk about Golden Generation that team was what made me a Die-hearted fan of the French team Zidane, Petite, Thuram, Lizarazu, Karembeu, Viera, Henry, Djorkaef & Trezeguet loved all those guys that’s when we were most potent in terms of talent & dominance

This episode was special, love the nostalgia, as my favourite ever WC is France 98.

I have watched espn fc for a long time. To hear the joy and with the way frank regails his memories, to see the way Dan hangs on his every word and lives the moments that are etched in history. With macca, talking of the galactico's coming together. There was so much positive energy flowing through the screen it was frightening. More people talking about there most joyous experience's please.

What a great insight from Frank, a World Cup winner! This is Frank's best moment on the show, all the others just hushed, for when a WC winner talks, you listen. That was some team, with Zidane the Merlin in the midfield. We were rooting for France as Brazil won the last one, as Europeans, first timers and having Arsenal players. When you think of all the billions of people that have come and gone on this planet, how many have played & won a WC final, yet ESPN have one in the studio and a very likeable one too!

As an Englishman i enjoy listening to Frank talk about the French team from bk then says a lot about him and the team he was part of.

Great chat guys really enjoyed it 👍

That French team was SICK. Unbelievable lineup.

I already knew France won after Zidane scored two headers in the 1st half. There was no way, the way Zidane played Brazil will come back.

Delighted frank won and played in 98 ,top bloke 👍, no offence to blanc

WC 1998 was my FIRST ever. I was for Brazil because R9.....Frank RUINED my summer that year LOL. Congrats Brother

Well done frank special moments brings special memories 👊

Lovely heartfelt stories from a genuine guy on the panel who’s actually been there and done that, thank you Frank!

I think macca also good for the studio discussion

I love hearing and watching frnak talk about the world cup, as a Brazilian it hurts but I was so little I dint even remember but as a neutral I love seeing frank talk a about the world cup

Cruyff’s biggest regret, not being a pundit on espn fc

Frank constantly reminds this every episode

Great memories Frankie, was devastated when France won in 98. Hence, 94 & 02 are my favorite WCs ever, but 02 is my best because I was grown & saw more games.

I played the Nintendo 64 alot in 1998...

On the topics of Zidane, got to agree with Frank. 2000 and 2006 was easy the most GOATED version of Zizou. Not many players can do a 180 turn on prime Ronaldinho and leave him for dead.

It was beautiful night for me ! When Zidane was Zizou 😅

This is awesome ❤

A great story from a legend. 💛

Frank might be my favorite but it’s difficult to say since I like everyone, yes even Seb 😂😂😂

World Cup 98 is the first one I really watched so I have a lot of nostalgia for it. 1986 and 1990 I was a bit too young to watch it properly, 1994 we didn't qualify so didn't bother with it, so started with 98

Excellent video, gracias.

One think I can said on here on that day final against Brazil Franc lobeuf should be proud of himself he was outstanding that day ,I was sure about him but he answered

i thought joules was like mid 30's...he is more than 40😮😮😮

What a treat to hear Frank’s stories. Thank-you for sharing such a special segment. 🥲

We love Frank, need him on the show more ❤

So fascinating. Great segment.

It’s awesome hearing his story and how it all came together very very interesting

I just really like that this guy's name is 'The Beef', in french. What a boss.

Zidane is great. He has already wrote his name in football history books both as a player and a manager. He has the right to choose to enjoy life with his family now.

I’m loving this

I was a kid watching my first football world cup in 1998 from my motherland, Bangladesh 🇧🇩. After listening to Frank Leboeuf from Scotland 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 after 26 years it still gives me goosebumps. Thank you for giving these wonderful memories of the beautiful game which I will cherish till my last breath.

As an argentine i supported france in that final but was still soo shocked how "easy" they made it look in d end. Great team great final 🎉

LOVE LOVE LOVE

Frank's great, what a character

Chills! Allez les bleus!! 🇫🇷🇫🇷

Great TV segment.

Great stories from 98! I remember watching the final as an 8 year old in the family room wearing a fake france jersey 😅… great episode!!

Frank is right regarding talent. The German poet Goethe once said: "What is a genius?..... a talent that works." By the way...as far as I remember Frank has never been a first team player for France. Either he came in later or he played for somebody who was injured.

That is the BEST World Cup! ❤🎉

That's why Zinedine Zidane is my favorite footballer player of all times the ULTIMATE GOAT OF THE MIDFIELD...#,ZIZOU🌟🇨🇵🏆⚽.

Brazilian players always give respect to zizou the way he demoralised them that world cup 😂😂

Frank the Marseilles v PSG players hating each other before Jacquet took over was fascinating!!! Was it Houllier before Jacquet?

People are hating Frank for nothing he never said he was the reason why they won he is just happy he was of the team that one he was a role player and he understood his role

Merci Frank! 💙🤍♥️

Even as a Brit, I followed the 98 teams fortunes in that WC and even one of my pals then suggested we head to Paris for the final. In fact, I quit my job, just to watch ZZ in that tournament. My job then involved a lot of travel and I didnt want be in Vladivostock trying to find a working TV so easier to just quit work and take in the event. I was in Paris on other business during the group stages and even then it was magical. Although I didnt actually go see any game live. Back in London, on the day of the final, there was a big article in the Sunday Times featuring Frank L. I think the headline read: Today, I play in the World Cup Final. Great times.

I liked this talk. I remember watching this WC. I had no idea France was good at soccer. They out braziled Brazil. Zinedane was incredible.

I remember that Thuram pose 😂Better to be lucky than good. Great to hear these reminicences from Frank 👍

He won the world cup sitting on the bench

I love you all😢

Allez Les Bleus!

I was born 4 months after that world cup haha wish i witnessed it

Zidane was a footballing monster that WC. that was his main break out to the world as a football superstar yet English fans compare Bellingham to him .. Absolute delusions

Oh god 25 minutes for something we hear EVERY DAY FROM FRANK

This could be the title of every show when Frank is on.

The only thing when they mentioned Croatia was about Bilic "simulation". What a disgrace because they were arguably the most difficult opponent on that road and if there was no Boban injury Thuram would never score his (only) two goals. It would be good sportmanship to show some respect because that croatian team was stacked and was playing great football. But hey, we are already used to this arrogance of the "big ones".

I don’t watch ESPN for two weeks and Craig has become 10 years younger

France winning the World Cup on home soil back then was a proud moment for every French since Alain Prost (the GOAT himself).

The bench warmer telling most of the stories

i agree with u frank if ur physically not in shape u can,t use ur skills effective ❤

he is here he is there he is every f*n were- Frank Leboeuf

I never seen 98 world cup but its iconic.

What’s the documentary about France they talking about ? Where can it be seen ?

I thought Jules was 30 lol

Yes in 1998 France was a great team playing great football. Can not say that of today's France.

Wanted to hear more about how Frank handled R9, before Dan rudely cut him off 😡

So basically Zidane cares about the weather

Only those who do not remember back then will just accept this story…… Brazil was the best team in that World Cup R9 was the best player in that tournament and only because he was sick in the finals us why Brazil lost that game let’s get it right…..how easily we forget

I still believe the French did something to R9.

Merci Zizou

Frank, Zidane is not Arab with all my due respect to every ethnicity. He is Berber Amazigh from North Africa origin.

How many French are here and do they regularly watch espn fc shows? query from India.

France at 2002 world cup was a terrible failure😂

Poor Croatia. Then someone who has never scored before will score against them. Then in the final there will be a controversial penalty. It's a penalty against Argentina.

Not only is Spanish football always VERY good but fate is always on their side.

I'll just see his highlights from the 1998 World Cup. Hopefully he wasn't a benched player.

Frank the best pundit here

How many times have we heard this story 😂😅

Another blunder by ESPN 🤦🏻‍♂️ the topic is FRANCE 🇫🇷 98 World Cup &Zizou’s achievements yet they wrote this 13:16 Zidane 2006 World Cup | 2000 Euros | CL 2002 13:47 Zidane 1998 World Cup | 2000 Euros | CL 2002

Zinedine Zidane scored two goals against reigning champions Brazil in the 1998 world cup final and one goal by Emmanuel Petit

Yes frank remember because france want win another

There's no football team like 1998 France in World Cup My witness from Africa

Not only their win but the best World Cup song ever “The Cup of life” by Ricky Martin! I knew that song before I knew about 🥅.

Espn and tv are so coocked bro any low quality youtuber will have more broll or pics of the guy playing, this is why people dont watch anymore, production stuck in the past.

Why nobody wants to ask Lebeef the proper question about 1998 final? Did the French players know before the game that it was fixed?

I hope if england wins,, Dan and Frank come on the show wearing shorts!😂

france can count themselves very lucky the great romario wasnt their, juninho paulista and djilminiha wasnt there romario doesnt loose to no French when Zidane was iunjured in 2002 was apparently no fit that was given for their elimination count your lucky days romario wasnt there

July 12, 1998 France won the world for the first time even though in the 1990 and 1994 editions of the world cup France did not qualify
