Former Saudi star claims Zidane was robbed of World Cup top honor
Former Saudi football star Fuad Anwar confirmed that an incident eliminated Zinedine Zidane’s chance of winning the World Cup 1998 Best Player Award. It was caused by an incident during the match against Saudi Arabia, which ended France’s participation in the group stage with just one point. Anwar said that the Saudi national team’s coach instructed him to closely monitor Zidane, which led to a tackle that resulted in Zidane’s expulsion. This prevented Zidane from winning the award, which was eventually awarded to Ronaldo, despite France’s loss in the final.
