French football journalist Vincent Duluc talks about the ‘special feeling'; which engrossed France during their 1998 World Cup victory. France won the World Cup with a 3-0 win over Brazil following a large amount of political unrest across the country due to its multi-cultural make-up. “We all remember what we did on that particular day. It was the pride of the nation,” he told 5 live Sport’s Eleanor Oldroyd. “It was a multi-cultural French team, it was a very special feeling. We all know football helps people live together.” This clip is from 5 live Sport on Wednesday 08 June 2016.
