Did anybody notice that at 1:36 they showed France 2 - 1 Bulgaria .... hahaha keep on dreaming ....we hauled ass in 1993 and 1994 I still remember those years even though I was very young
How the fuck is that Ginola's fault? Shows how little the French know about football tactics, no wonder they have failed to get a World Class squad past the group stage in 4 out of the last 5 World Cups LOL.
I can pick out 2 or 3 other players more at fault than Ginola for that goal. The fact he was booed across France in the League after this is an outrage. Pathetic.
Pretty stupid by Ginola to be fair. There was one French player in the box and France know that if they don't concede they'll qualify so all they had to do was keep the ball. The captain really ought to be taking control of a situation like that telling the players to keep hold of it.
Хубав спомен от времето, когато футбола беше спорт за всички, а не център на простащината и хулиганството. Сещам се какви празненства имаше по улиците, аз се разхождах се обвит с трибагреника. Има три велики години в българската история - 681, 1878 и 1994, като последната се дължи най-вече на този гол в последната минута. Браво Емо, браво Костадинов :]
Just pause it at 0:11, look at the clock, look at where the ball is, and look how many people are in the box, and think what you'd do if you were a professional footballer in that circumstance, knowing the scoreline was fine as it was. Crazy!! Still feel sorry for the lad though :(
To be fair, whilst it's harsh to leave Ginola out after this, it was a ridiculous ball to play, with only one guy in the box, barely any time left, and presumably only needing a draw. Clearly he knew he'd messed up once the goal had been scored.
@ChristopherHeward I agree with that. Incredibly stupid cross by Ginola. But the coach is still responsible. He can't put that much distance between himself and the result.
Despite Cantona and Ginola, Bulgaria were the better team at then time. Stoichkov/Kostadinov/Balakov/Penev/Letchkov
Those were the days, when every goalkeeper wore the same top (2:05). Like when every goalkeeper in the Premier League in the 90s had the Adidas top with green and purple and three strips on either side.
What a load of bullshit! People are only saying it is Ginol's fault because they want to be a dick! How can that be his fault? He is an attacker. If the other frogs came up and gave him support it would't have happened. i mean hes in there box ffs. How can it be his fault? If had gave the ball away on half way line and a 2 on 1 situation in favour of Bulgaria then you may have blamed him but thats amateur from a professional person in Houliers case.
Ginola was a magician, but I don't think you could say he was a great player like Waddle or Silva. He contributed nothing defensively, drifted in and out of games and was occasionally magical but often anonymous.
Still I'd pay to watch people like him and Le Tissier for those moments and to blame only Daveed for this goal is ridiculous!
@patladjanko there was an article on bbc sport about how ginola is going to sue gerrard houlier over comments he made in relation to ginola not holding onto the ball in the corner when he crossed it
Any footballer with a brain would have ran the clock down in a football match of this importance....crossing the ball with only 1 player in the box???!!
Gerard Houllier is a bell end!!!! There is no way Ginola was at fault for this goal. France still had 9 players behind the ball when the cross came in!
@romansoldier9 Yes you are right. But still I am wishing that Ginola take the ball to the corner, try to find out the corner kick. The goal is around 45.00 and the injury time is only 1 minute. Oh my goodness, Anyway, Kostadinov goal is also not easy. He could have missed it easily since it is from difficult angle. But I think the disaster has been started since they have underestimated Israel in the previous match.
Anyway, take the positive thing from this game. Because of this game, France was more motivated to win the World Cup in their home soil. They even dropped senior player like Cantona, Ginola and Papin and since Euro 1996 opted for Zidane, Henry, Petit who had brought the World Cup to them. I feel that if they advanced to 1994, the story could be different in 1998.
This defeat is the reason France won the 98 WC, so it did have a positive outcome. Without it, Houllier would have stayed and the team would have never been rebuilt Aime Jacquet style. Cantona and Ginola stayed home, Djorkaeff and Zidane came in. That in itself made a world of difference, classic example of learning from defeat.
do you know what? im bulgarian 11 years old i would give to be born when that hapened . gospod e bulgarin in english is god is bulgarian, but the sad thing is that todays bulgarian national team is just a few guy kicking a ball around . too sad

Better than the english twats? yes we may be twats, but not only did we get through our group and not have the whole world laughing at us, we got to round 2, where we lost to mighty germany! In European club Football for the past 8 years English clubs have mainly dominated, one year 3 of the 4 of our clubs reaching the semi finals!
Y pensar que 5 años mas tarde varios jugadores que estuvieron en este partido como Petit,Desailly,Blanc,Deschamps llegarian a la gloria siendo campeones en Francia 98.
@yaglourt yeah France is a great football country ,maybe one of the best ,way way better then the English twats ,but their appearances in the last World FIFA Championship weren't the best ,i was an France football fan to 2008 when i became a Netherlands.I hope we see a Netherlands-France final in Rio..French football players always used to have and have big egos ,that is why the lost the final in 2006 to Italy,that was one of saddest days of my life the other was when Netherlands lost to Spain..
@manololecortez Es cierto xq Francia era el proximo organizador,Inglaterra habia sido 4º en el 90 y Uruguay tiene dos copas ganadas.Y ademas, no te olvides que Argentina sufrio hasta el ultimo aliento para clasificarse en el repechaje contra Australia 1-1 en Sidney y 1-0 en Bs.As., por estos dias se ha reavivado la polemica sobre aquellos dos partidos.
@kicu71186 si es cierto aunque hay que reconcoer que al final suecia y bulgaria hicieron un gran mundial y justamente salieron de este grupo de francia.
@manololecortez Exacto, pero lo insólito es q Francia con 1 punto estaban en el mundial, jugaba sus 2 últimos partidos de local contra Israel y Bulgaria, y perdieron los 2 y sobre la hora!!!...Luego, 4 años mas tarde Francia se tomaria una dulce revancha.
Y después Bulgaria ya en el mundial elimino al en ese entonces campeón vigente Alemania en cuartos de final...cosas q tiene el futbol...por eso es tan lindo.
I'm Bulgarian. I was in France in 2006, and they still remember! Talk about it all the time.
I remember the joy that united the nation in difficult times, people celebrated in the streets and fucking forgot about politics. And all thanks to football.
I hope someday Bulgaria have the same team as in 1993/1996 and would please me as a conscious fan.
Sorry, but what Ginola did was UNFORGIVABLE. There were only a few more seconds left on the clock. The French player who took the freekick made a quick run behind Ginola to receive the ball again from him and rund down the clock. Instead, what does the stupid idiot that is Ginola do? Put a wild and aimless cross into a box that contained precisely ONE Frenchman (and missed him by MILES). He cost the French (and more so CANTONA) a World Cup appearance.
i'm romanian, and I remember well those times , real shock how they qualified , there have been other teams that qualified to world cups with a goal in the last minutes , but this is i guess the only time, when the team that lost the qualification in the last minute played against the team that won the qualification in that minute.
The impact on the French players is incredible on par with their defeat to West Germany in that World Cup semi-final in 1982. It is sad for David Ginola to take all the flack. How many times does a player over hit a cross.
i agree, ginola took so much flack for it that they almost forget how good of a player he was...i just dont remember people running in the corner and holding the ball to waste time then
They did forget about how good a player he was. Why was a player like David Ginola not gracing the top glamour clubs of Spain or Italy? Instead playing in the cold of the North East of England, which he did well. That tells me something. He came to England to salvage his career. Desperate to hold on to his talented dignity. Emotional nonsense from the French fans and press in which they never stood by their man. Complete nonsense.
@jghatora1 Yes man i agree with you. I m french and i never figured it out. All this shit happened because of a speech from this CUNT of GERARD HOULLIER. He disclaimed all responsability about this incredible defeat and didnt apologize.He laid the responsability at the ginola's door and blamed him in front of the whole France!!
Ginola did a mistake but it's human! Ginola scored against Israel and we should WIN as we SHOULD win against Bulgaria,but we didn't. We had to blame the whole team...
@jghatora1 yeah, shame on france for their reaction against ginola. he had no fault for that goal in my opinion. and im from bulgaria, this is one of the greatest matches in our football history.
@jghatora1 ...but this bitch of Houllier only blamed Ginola. I think he never bounced back after that and that's why he left to England like Cantona did. It gets me really sad 'cause this player deserved better and we could win the EURO 96 with Ginola and Cantona. Houllier is only a coward who never admits his part of responsability as he chickened out for the horrific World Cup 2010. HOULLIER FUCKING CHICKEN. (sorry for my poor english)
Being Irish, I like to watch this clip whenever I remember Thierry Henry's handball in the play-off for WC2010....it eases the pain! I remember this match clearly and my heart bled for the French at the time, but that's football - you need to be prepared for the bad days too!
as french, i remember this match very well, i was 11 and i cried all night long.
Maybe the darkest day of french football.
the french manager was houillier said Ginola was a murderer of the french football or a thing like that...
domenech recent humiliations were pathetic and disgraceful, but that defeat was pure sadness and sensation of injustice. but the greatest teams always have to face that kind of things. 4 years later, France became world champion and won the euro 2 years after!
Remember that Sweden and Bulgaria (the two teams that qualified from this group) went on to claim the 3rd and 4th place in the World Cup 1994. This was an extremely hard qualifying group!
Bulgaria did so well in the 1994 World Cup yet they were seconds away from not qualifying. Ginola was blamed for giving the ball straight to Bulgaria to launch the attack for Kostadinov's goal. The players Bulgaria had in 1994 were a golden generation - Stoichkov, Kostadinov, Balakov, Sirakov, Ivanov, Letchkov, Yordanov, Yankov etc - and they had a brilliant World Cup. It'll be a long time before Bulgaria come up with such a group of great players at the same time.
Too bad we haven't seen much from Bulgaria since 94.
But those qualifers for USA 94 were something else. Classic games like Wales-Romania, England-Holland, Spain-Denmark, France-Bulgaria, Italy-Portugal.
It's a joke to blame anyone from the French team at all. There was nothing wrong to be beaten by the Bulgarian team at that time. If anyone is familiar with the Bulgarian football at that time and the players that were playing for the national team will tell you this. The goal is pure class. The whole attack is. Real football fans are watching and enjoying attacking football and skills, rather then perfect def fences and tricks, like passing the ball around the corner. Ask Germany that year :))
what? the french blamed the guy who performed the freekick in the beginning? thats the dumbest thing ever.. did he let kostadinov SHOOT FROM ZERO ANGLE and score? no, of course, the stupid defenders did. the goalkeeper had no fault, because our guy's shot was incredible! greetings from bulgaria! im so sorry that im too young to remember this match, but its one of the greatest in our history.
I remember this match very well,I was 15 yrs old and all Morocco was happy,Bulgaria has excellent team and great players like balakov ,costadinov and stoichkov...
@kisvarosipari I think it´s because he and the french team had specific orders to hold the ball far away from their goal. It was the last minute of the game and he gave the ball way childishly. In this kind of game, a manager goes mental with something like this. Although it´s too harsh to ban him forever, I completely understand Houllier (a shit manager none the less),
"Ahaha, well done bulgaria, fuck that fat wanker PLatini"
i cant believe anyone can say soemthing like that to Platini hes one of the best players EVER its just harsh and stupid of you to say that Platini was amazing footballer and nothing will change that
This was great French team, who narrowly missed out for the world cup, Sweden and Bulgaria made it and finished 3rd and 4th at the World cup. A team with Petit, Djorkaeff, Desailly, Blanc, Deschamps, Papin, Ginola and Cantona really should have made that world cup.
The other guy, was a portuguese forwar,called Domingos who scored more tham 100goals in Portugal,and did a fantastic duble with Kostadinov.They both score in FC Porto 5-0 victory in Bremen for the C.League in 94. Domingos now is the coach of Braga,who lead surprisely the portuguese champioship,and never won it.
@m0r7r3d i was only 2 years old at WC94 hehe, and the few matches ive seen of bulgaria in USA94, i havent or dont remember seeing kostadinov playing, but somedoby answered my question a long time ago, and yes, he actually played a lot of matches

I'm Bulgarian. I was in France in 2006, and they still remember! Talk about it all the time.
I remember the joy that united the nation in difficult times, people celebrated in the streets and fucking forgot about politics. And all thanks to football.
I hope someday Bulgaria have the same team as in 1993/1996 and would please me as a conscious fan.

as far as i remember, nobody particularly gave a shit when france reached the final in 2006. there wasn't the same buzz around as in 1998.

00:05 Most revered player in the history of Manchester United.
00:50 Was to win a world cup and a Euro.
01:47 This one was to be one of the best players of the Premiere league.
01:50 This one was to win more trophies than most players ever dreamt of.
02:30 Same thing, and also currently the man who's trying to make the team recover once more.
02:37 Has scored the third goal against Brazil in the 1998 World Cup final.
FORTUNE!
I agree with firesealman!

Sorry, but what Ginola did was UNFORGIVABLE. There were only a few more seconds left on the clock. The French player who took the freekick made a quick run behind Ginola to receive the ball again from him and rund down the clock. Instead, what does the stupid idiot that is Ginola do? Put a wild and aimless cross into a box that contained precisely ONE Frenchman (and missed him by MILES). He cost the French (and more so CANTONA) a World Cup appearance.

i'm romanian, and I remember well those times , real shock how they qualified , there have been other teams that qualified to world cups with a goal in the last minutes , but this is i guess the only time, when the team that lost the qualification in the last minute played against the team that won the qualification in that minute.

The impact on the French players is incredible on par with their defeat to West Germany in that World Cup semi-final in 1982. It is sad for David Ginola to take all the flack. How many times does a player over hit a cross.

i agree, ginola took so much flack for it that they almost forget how good of a player he was...i just dont remember people running in the corner and holding the ball to waste time then
ROYDORO 1 year ago
They did forget about how good a player he was. Why was a player like David Ginola not gracing the top glamour clubs of Spain or Italy? Instead playing in the cold of the North East of England, which he did well. That tells me something. He came to England to salvage his career. Desperate to hold on to his talented dignity. Emotional nonsense from the French fans and press in which they never stood by their man. Complete nonsense.
jghatora1 1 year ago
@jghatora1 Yes man i agree with you. I m french and i never figured it out. All this shit happened because of a speech from this CUNT of GERARD HOULLIER. He disclaimed all responsability about this incredible defeat and didnt apologize.He laid the responsability at the ginola's door and blamed him in front of the whole France!!
Ginola did a mistake but it's human! Ginola scored against Israel and we should WIN as we SHOULD win against Bulgaria,but we didn't. We had to blame the whole team...

@jghatora1 yeah, shame on france for their reaction against ginola. he had no fault for that goal in my opinion. and im from bulgaria, this is one of the greatest matches in our football history.
ncuxap12444 7 months ago
@jghatora1 ...but this bitch of Houllier only blamed Ginola. I think he never bounced back after that and that's why he left to England like Cantona did. It gets me really sad 'cause this player deserved better and we could win the EURO 96 with Ginola and Cantona. Houllier is only a coward who never admits his part of responsability as he chickened out for the horrific World Cup 2010. HOULLIER FUCKING CHICKEN. (sorry for my poor english)

Maybe the darkest day of french football.
the french manager was houillier said Ginola was a murderer of the french football or a thing like that...
domenech recent humiliations were pathetic and disgraceful, but that defeat was pure sadness and sensation of injustice. but the greatest teams always have to face that kind of things. 4 years later, France became world champion and won the euro 2 years after!

Remember that Sweden and Bulgaria (the two teams that qualified from this group) went on to claim the 3rd and 4th place in the World Cup 1994. This was an extremely hard qualifying group!
pbrynild 1 year ago
Bulgaria did so well in the 1994 World Cup yet they were seconds away from not qualifying. Ginola was blamed for giving the ball straight to Bulgaria to launch the attack for Kostadinov's goal. The players Bulgaria had in 1994 were a golden generation - Stoichkov, Kostadinov, Balakov, Sirakov, Ivanov, Letchkov, Yordanov, Yankov etc - and they had a brilliant World Cup. It'll be a long time before Bulgaria come up with such a group of great players at the same time.

Too bad we haven't seen much from Bulgaria since 94.
But those qualifers for USA 94 were something else. Classic games like Wales-Romania, England-Holland, Spain-Denmark, France-Bulgaria, Italy-Portugal.

It's a joke to blame anyone from the French team at all. There was nothing wrong to be beaten by the Bulgarian team at that time. If anyone is familiar with the Bulgarian football at that time and the players that were playing for the national team will tell you this. The goal is pure class. The whole attack is. Real football fans are watching and enjoying attacking football and skills, rather then perfect def fences and tricks, like passing the ball around the corner. Ask Germany that year :))
freetripin 1 year ago 4
what? the french blamed the guy who performed the freekick in the beginning? thats the dumbest thing ever.. did he let kostadinov SHOOT FROM ZERO ANGLE and score? no, of course, the stupid defenders did. the goalkeeper had no fault, because our guy's shot was incredible! greetings from bulgaria! im so sorry that im too young to remember this match, but its one of the greatest in our history.

ginola just crossed a ball. i dont understand why he was blamed and banned to play for france.
kisvarosipari 1 year ago
@kisvarosipari I think it´s because he and the french team had specific orders to hold the ball far away from their goal. It was the last minute of the game and he gave the ball way childishly. In this kind of game, a manager goes mental with something like this. Although it´s too harsh to ban him forever, I completely understand Houllier (a shit manager none the less),

This was great French team, who narrowly missed out for the world cup, Sweden and Bulgaria made it and finished 3rd and 4th at the World cup. A team with Petit, Djorkaeff, Desailly, Blanc, Deschamps, Papin, Ginola and Cantona really should have made that world cup.

The other guy, was a portuguese forwar,called Domingos who scored more tham 100goals in Portugal,and did a fantastic duble with Kostadinov.They both score in FC Porto 5-0 victory in Bremen for the C.League in 94. Domingos now is the coach of Braga,who lead surprisely the portuguese champioship,and never won it.
lmaf1978 1 year ago
I have a question for you guys. In wich club Kostadinov play at that moment and what was the player in that club that make with him a fantastic pair?
lmaf1978 1 year ago
kostadinov played in porto at that time and it was his best season there - 16 goals from 22 games
about the other guy, i'm not sure who do you mean. because they were three of them - kostadinov, joao pinto and timofte ;-)
