Zidane has the most astounding touch in the planet. Maybe only Rivaldo can match him. His intelligence is above any player that plays the game. Became a French hero after scoring two headed goals in the 1998 World Cup final, and ‘Zizou’ was undoubtedly the star of that competition, as evidenced by his capturing of the European and World Footballer of the Year honours. This perfect attacking midfielder has wonderful dribbling skills, a superb passing range, an eye for goal, a sublime touch and aerial ability, and is a major threat from free-kicks. Arguably one of the best players in the world, he has won the Italian league and UEFA Super Cup at club level with Juventus FC. The only modern player to threat Platini's position as best french player ever.
