Only the French would have a bald man, under 6 feet tall as their goalkeeper. Barthez doesn't look like a footballer, let alone a keeper. And he's also a chainsmoker, but one of the best keepers in history
Come on we played against France the previous year (1997) . We even drew 1-1 with them . The biggest mistake we made was not selecting Neil Tovey ,who was captain since day one when we were readmitted to FIFA .
They should have fielded the usual team, we received the whooping. This was the turning point in south African football coz we were never the same after the world cup

Mexico had a bald keeper under 6 foot in 1997 to 2010. he was 5’8” his name is Oscar Perez Rojas aka (El Conejo)
Frankreich 1998! Selten einen verdienteren Weltmeister gesehen! 👍🙂
🇫🇷 empezó a lo grande su mundial
it was our maiden World Cup, we were nervous
"Nervous" in your first world cup, SH*T in all the rest!
I think you played well in all 3 of your World Cups and were unlucky not to advance from the group.

@@Hunkzilla A friendly game and your first World Cup game are two different things. The pressure is not the same
@@theantichristZD thank you
Im amazed South africa went into this tournament with no proper defensive midfielder.

Where can we get full match please
⚽️🏟
But the game was 4-0...
It didn't count offside before djokaef scored the second goal, his other first goal was offside
