The Legacy

France finished fourth at the 1982 World Cup in Spain, losing the third-place play-off to Poland. This Adidas away kit was worn as Michel Hidalgo’s side introduced their elegant midfield quartet to the global stage. Michel Platini anchored the play, supported by the movement and vision of Alain Giresse, Jean Tigana, and Bernard Genghini. Their semi-final defeat against West Germany in Seville remains one of the most famous matches in tournament history, defined by a dramatic penalty shootout and a highly physical encounter that left a lasting impression on the international game.
