The Legacy
France entered the 2002 World Cup as reigning champions but exited after the group stage without scoring a goal. Roger Lemerre managed a side that arrived in Korea and Japan missing Zinedine Zidane for the opening matches due to injury. Thierry Henry received a red card against Uruguay, while Patrick Vieira and Lilian Thuram played through the tournament’s three matches. This Adidas away kit covers the campaign that ended in unexpected disappointment for the holders, who finished bottom of Group A behind Denmark, Senegal, and Uruguay.
Key Moment
