Fifa World Cup France 98 T-Shirt
Regular price
£19.99 GBP
The 1998 World Cup. Brazil scraped past Scotland in the first game of the tournament. England were knocked out by Argentina on penalites when, inexplicably, David Batty was allowed to take one despite never having taken a penality before in his life.
France were much better than everyone else and ran out 3- 0 winners after Real Ronaldo had a funny turn.
