This is the third time for picking up remarkable players in World Cup 2006, and this is also the final.
The third player is the person who led France to their first championship in their home country in World Cup 1998, and who also declared that he would quit his play with this World Cup, whose name is Zinedine Zidane; "2nd General" of France. He received FIFA World Player of the Year 3 times in 1998, 2000, and 2003, which is the most just with Ronald. Not only personal achievement, but also in club team; Juventus(Italy), and Real Madrid(Spain), he won a lot of championships in various tournaments. In France National Team, he also won World Cup 98 and Euro 2000. Just like this, he already achieved his status high, so he can be said as cinch but we can't help remarking him because of his statement of his retirement.
Both in World Cup 2002 and EURO 2004, France couldn't have good record, and Zidane once quit from National team but he came back to rescue France that put up a bad match in European preliminary.
His techniques such as pass, dribble, shoot, and trap are beyond one level that can't be believed so that he will quit soon. I wonder if anyone else can beat him in ball-touch technique. "Roulette" is his specialty and the most famous his technique.
Beside of technique, he is big, tall, and powerful, he is perfect!! Therefore, he once got a nickname "Alien".
This is third time for him to join in World Cup. If he could finish it with 1st place, his name will be remembered forever just like Pele and Maradona.
