Match overview
A chess-like quarter-final produced few chances as two disciplined back fives held sway. With no golden goal forthcoming, penalties beckoned; Lama saved from Seedorf while Blanc converted the clincher as France triumphed 5-4 and stretched their unbeaten run to 27 internationals.
Trivia
Laurent Blanc remains the only player to score the deciding kick in shoot-outs at both club and international level within the same year, having done so for Auxerre in the 1996 French Cup final.
