I see people saying the referees helped Argentina win the World Cup 2022 but how was the referees helping them by calling 3 of their goals off side against Saudi Arabia, Gave The Netherlands 10 mins to tie up with them and gave France 2 penalties against them while ignoring France handballs 🤦🏾♂️
@@DanutPaul Those penalties were valid because they had contact 🤦🏾♂️ look at the Croatia one the keeper literally stopped Alvarez from running and scoring and Messi said nothing wrong in the press from him to be suspended

Two things can't be denied: No independent doctor would have cleared him to play, and no independent coach would have left him on the pitch for the entire game ;)) PS I always thought that putting his shoes around his neck was a protest indicating that Nike was strangling him, shows my naivety ;)

I would not be paying any attention to any future world cups. The world cup from the very beginning, even with the nomination country, was corrupt. What starts in corruption will end with it also. Not just football but sports has to much money in it, it is impossible for greed to not take effect.
@@mikecruz6755 yeah agreed, I don't blame Ronaldo though it was ultimately the decision of the greedy officials, he was just a wonder kid who wanted to win the biggest trophy ever
1997-98 was rigged too during the second match between Inter and Juve. Ronaldo got fouled when the defender went to shove him rather than the ball in the penalty box, but no penalty given.
damn...well juve is famous for rigging since they got caught and relegated..i watched football all my life..champions league and world cup were like holy events to me..but stuff like this makes it really sad..(not to mention the sports betting mafia )..when covid made the stadiums empty i stopped watching bc they just played different,..you could see its more rigged than expected...with full stadiums the adrenaline takes over and its more authentic...but with empty stadiums it was a scripted training match...

Can you make a video on yugoslavian football? crvena dzvezda winning the champions leauge and Darko pancev being the golden boot winner in Europe from Macedonia, along with other lesser known amazing players from.that time like prosinecki
France wasn't weak, not better than Brasil, but really good, there was Zidane, Thuram, Henry, Vieira, didn't help that their best match was the final one, but Ronaldo's convulsion affected his whole team, except Edmundo, it was enough to give france the edge.
@@topnotch6907 countries don't buy world cups. they are given victory by FIFA. all national teams of top level are very close to each other in quality, it's easy to make one team slip and lose, so fifa favors one team over the other based on who is more profitable. that's why Korea got so far in 2002 and morroco got so far in 2022, they were markets not yet explored and had good potential to profit. that's also why the host country almost always won the cup.

Back in 1993 Jairzinho proposed to Kalamata F.C. [a greek football cllub] to take the 17yeard old Ronaldo, about a year before he came to Europe! But Kalamata's President hesitated and then he went to PSV. It was already too late!
Back then, Brazil and Ronaldo were the face of Nike. In 1998, Ronaldo wasn't 100% ready to play the final due health issues but Nike forced the Brazilian FA to play him regardless and we all know what happened. Rigged is a bit strong, more like forced Brazil to make money.
One of the craziest things is that without that seizure R9 could have won 3 Balon D’ors at 21. In a row. In 1996 a 19 year old Ronaldo came second by only 1 vote (he should have won over Sammer to be honest), and in 1998 without the seizure he surely would have won the World Cup and then the Ballon D’or.
This was not the first or last corrupted World Cup. Argentina was gifted the Qatar World Cup for the same reason that France was gifted the 1998 Cup, the romanticism of those teams winning, the Qatar Cup being a chance for a sensational climax for Messi's career, and a big boost for Qatar.
qatar was not rigged, yes the handball vs netherlands was questionable but that ref was absolute garbage and neither side had an advantage. Argentina was given 5 penalties out of which 4 were succesfull in 2018 france got 4 succesful penalties but that wasnt rigged?
@@golgtolololo9338it wasn’t rigged it was just weird like giving Argentina more chances but not flat out planned it’s a lot like mls cup going on right now, I’ve been a Messi fan since I was a kid since I grew up with argentines but I have to admit he is fifas project
It wasn't rigged and no one tried to kill Ronaldo, the first theory you mention about Xylocaine sounds the most logical and explains everything quite clearly in terms of Ronaldo's weak knees. And are we seriously going to dismiss it just because his doctor who doesn't even know what a convulsion is said no one was taking any injection, obviously they are going to try to hide this information from public for as long as possible. As for the match itself, yes Nike forced Ronaldo to play because of the huge money deal, but that's not rigging the match, they didn't care who won the final, they just wanted to make sure their investment is represented and Brazil played poorly because they were shook up by Ronaldo's near death experience and couldn't focus on the match, so obviously easy match for France. Going into fancy and complex theories is fun and all, but in reality things are never so complicated, all the corrupt and shady shit that happens is always done in the simplest way possible, this ain't the movies where the villain plans some crazy sequence of events that would require all the start to align to happen. Also Brazil would never throw a final just to get a easy group stage in the next World Cup, that makes zero logic.
That 98 World Cup I vividly remember like yesterday. It was thr first World Cup I ever watched since I was too young to even know what football was for the 94 World Cup. But that 98 World Cup final was so off it did not feel right. It felt like decision was already made for 🇫🇷 to win before the game started. 🇧🇷 was playing so bad, I've never seen the golden generation 🇧🇷 play that bad. Ronaldo in that match was pretty much non-existent even Rivaldo & all the other main guys. Something was really wrong with that 98 World Cup final that till this day does not sit well with me, just like with the 06 World Cup final & some of the 22 World Cup matches. I'm not going to deny Zidane's talent because even for me he's one of the best of that generation, but he was definitely not on Ronaldo (R9), Ronaldinho (R10/R11) & Rivaldo (R10) in their prime, especially the first two in their prime.
Zidane's 1998 Ballon D'or was undeserved, just like Ronaldo in 2002. The truth is Ronaldo should've won the Ballon D'or in 1995, 1996, 1997 and 1998. 4 Ballon D'ors and 9-10 world class seasons should be enough for him to be a top 7-8 player of all time at least.
Thank you for making this video. I remember this was my first WC and I got to love football just a year or two before being 8 years old. That final made no sense even back then, Brazil looked nothing like it was the whole tournament before. Later I watched it many times and it's obvious they threw the match. I believe it was the mix of everything you've mentioned, bribery, sponsors, throwing, fatigued and stressed out players. France was a very good team but not even close to that Brazil. Ronaldo should've been the official GoaT, damn that riggery and curse that horrible injury. R9 is still a legend, but looking back at that 1998 always feels painful and unfair.
That's right, the team were inadequately prepared for the situation, and first tried to get him to sleep it off! Then to walk it off, then suspected poisoning and that is mainly why they actually sent him to hospital on suspicion.
What do you mean by that? We don't know anything about this world cup. Corruption is everywhere in fifa but we don't know what happened in this world cup. If there was any major incidents, we will know in the upcoming years. Truth will come out. But at the time being we dont know much.
How u penaldo cryer who is the biggest flop in WC history? Argentina was by far the best team, winning 3 trophies in a row against Brazil in Copa America, Italy in la Finalissima 3-0, and france who in 80 min did nothing and giving him 2 penaltis and a last big chance, and then bottling in penaltis.
How was the referees helping them by calling 3 of their goals off side against Saudi Arabia, Gave The Netherlands 10 mins to tie up with them and gave France 2 penalties against them while ignoring France handballs 🤦🏾♂️
@@mo.011tbf fair Netherlands put in some big dudes and sent a shit load of crosses against little ass dudes, genuinely makes sense they tied it up. Also both pens France took were pretty legit, hard to argue those, im a Messi fan and I think the first pen Argentina got was the weakest of all of them and most likely to be called a dive
Clickbait title. the only thing that could be true is nike sponsorship knowing where it lead to. that doesnt mean they rigged it, it means they just made Ronaldo to play regardless of his health. Losing the world cup final would make them lose money even, which I bet it's what happened since everyone wanted Zidane's brand new adidas boots when he was in Juventus. Also Giovanni not featuring in the squad in 1999 even if he was before bcs he didnt have a contract with nike.
The one constant in sports is how evil the owners and major corporate leaders will act. They took the peoples games and have taken the focus away from local athletic access of all type.
I think what happened is that Ronaldo was simply injured by the time leading up to the final. Then there was a brash attempt to keep him on by injecting him but it resulted in the convulsions. All because he simply HAD to play for the fans and yes for Nike too. By the time the final started Ronaldo was just a mess and the whole teams morale was just destroyed. I think a big flaw that showed up was not having Romario. Edmundo was too much of a drop off but Romario was elite as well and would’ve been able to play by the time of the knock out stages from injury. Romario would’ve been the perfect cushion for Ronaldo who simply suffered too much physically and he even payed for it more even after that World Cup.
The last goal France scored was passed onto mbappe with his French teammates hand following the corner. But no one saw it until now that of course people can re-watch it and has gone viral. If anyone was rigged it's argentina and messi from a winning goal and a golden boot. U Muppets
There is so much conspiracy and garbage dealing going on in sports that I have never paid a single hard-earned cent to see any of them. I'm fed up with most sports. Trust me, even motor racing is rigged. The last race of the 1997 season, the Williams team came under fire for allegedly cutting a spoken agreement with McLaren to hold back so Mika Hakkinen could get his first GP win. Suddenly, it was all hushed up and forgotten. Then the very next year, Hakkinen snores his way to the EASIEST world title ever. I was so disgusted that I just about gave up. I only watched the races when Ferrari were winning. After that, I switched off permanently.
"We may have lost the world cup but we didn't lose our lives" - Ronaldo After 98 I don't know why I once had a theory like they tried to get R9 not to play. R9 played and didn't score or didn't try to score. The seizure thing was the official story and people were also threatened. Then Brazil given easier road to final in 2002.
@@luisdavasconcellos2914I don't like tinfoil hat stuff, but there is a conspiracy that I love: After the 1998 incident, FIFA gave Brazil an easy group + the weaker bracket (Turkey and England gold generation were pretty good, though), while in the other side, SK would clean up the shark tank(Spain, Italy, Germany) with "a little help". Once Brazil X SK final was certain Korea would be on his own. Easy win for Brazil, the final wouldn't look suspicious to the world, while Asia would get a "football fever" after their first WC final in 72 years. But what about France, who won 1998 WC, 2000 Euro, and reached 2006 final? Well, for some reason, they scored 0 goals against Senegal, Denmark and Uruguay, Zidane was injured, France had 10 players against Uruguay because Henry got a red card after only 25 minutes, and missed the game against Denmark... sus.
Perhaps, this explains why the player Leonardo declared the following sentence: "If people knew what happened in the World Cup, they would be disgusted". All Brazilians were shocked and saddened for having missed the soccer World Cup in France. Should not. What is exposed below is the first-hand news that is being investigated by radio stations and newspapers from all over Brazil and some foreigners, more specifically Wall Street Journal of Americas and Gazzeta delo Sport and should be published in the media soon, as soon as the news evidence is gathered and confirms the facts. Proven fact: Brazil SOLD the world cup to FIFA. The Brazilian starting players were advised, at 13:00 on July 12 (day of the final game), in a meeting involving Mr. Ricardo Teixeira (on the only time the president of the CBF attended a national team briefing), coach Mário Zagallo, Mr. Américo Faria, selection supervisor, and Mr. Ronald Rhovald, representative of sponsor Nike. Reserve players remained in isolation, in their rooms or in the hotel lobby. At first very upset, the players refused to exchange the five-time world championship for hosting the World Cup. Acceptance came through full payment of prizes, US$70,000.00 for each player, plus a bonus of US$400,000.00 for all players and committee members, for a total of US$23,000,000.00 twenty-three million dollars) through the company Nike. In addition, players who accept the contract with the company Nike in the next 4 years will have the same prize bases as the company's elite players, such as Ronaldo himself, Raul, from Spain, Batistuta, from Argentina and Roberto Carlos, as well. from Brazil. Even so, Ronaldo refused to play, which forced coach Zagallo to choose Edmundo, saying that Ronaldo was having problems with his left knee (in the first piece of news published at 1:30 pm at the press center) and, shortly afterwards, at 14:15, changing the prognosis for stomach problems). His situation was only resolved after the Nike representative threatened to withdraw his lifetime sponsorship of the player, valued at more than $90,000,000.00 (ninety million dollars) throughout his career. Thus, it was agreed that Brazil would be defeated during the 'Golden Goal' (overtime with sudden death), but the apathy that befell the starting players meant that France, which absolutely did not participate in this negotiation, scored, in two simple failures of the Brazilian team, the first goals. Mr. Sepp Blatter, the new president of FIFA, a French-Swiss citizen, applauded the collaboration of the Brazilian team, since the world championship brought balance to France at a time of the highest unemployment rates ever recorded in that country, which will be aggravated by the recent introduction of euro (European single currency) and the European common market (ECC). He also assured Mr. Ricardo Teixeira, through his uncle, João Havelange, that Brazil would have an easier way for the fifth championship in 2002. Please pass this message on to as many people as possible, so that everyone can get to know the filth that surrounds football!
I also had the opportunity to witness this unthinkable and its utterly weird. Something was outrageously wrong. France was gifted the cup. They didn't win it. The Brasilians on the pitch were lost somewhere as if they had just landed on a different planet and they had no idea where they were and what for. Yes, its was rigged for sure.
Brasil had the 2 of the best strikers on earth at the time in Ronaldo and Romario. Although many consider prime R9 the pinnacle of individual brilliance as a football player, leaving out Romario who was Still a terrific player was on the coach. With Romario Brasil would still have their leader upfront from the past decade. Stubbornness from the coach cost them thr world cup. France did it's job.
It is all excuses. Anyone that followed and knew football at the time thought France were the better team. Brazil were very shaky at the back, and France were solid. Maybe the most solid group of defenders in any World Cup. France scored the most goals, and allowed the least throughout the tournament. All that and playing at home, the fact that they won was not a surprise outside of the cry-baby Brazilians and their loudmouth fans.

Ahah so they don't like money? Brazil beggin that in ditacture. A bussiness for people forget their situation. Go to see João Havelange it was the boss
To the people? Yes. To CBF? Nope. The ex president of CBF was Ricardo Teixeira, he doesn't care about football, but likes money a lot. He was voted president because of his father in law, João Havelange, ex-president of FIFA and CBD (old CBF), never played football, didn't understand it, but knew how to make money and turned FIFA into the moneymaker it's is now.
Fun Fact: Since Brazil got knocked out by France in 2006 quarterfinals, this country had never won the World Cup everytime when they face any European teams (Netherlands in 2010, Germany in 2014, Belgium in 2018, and Croatia in 2022). The 1-7 tragedy in 2014 was such the greatest nightmare that shocked the whole world compared to this debacle in 1998 Final.
But is obvious that if Brazil lose will be against a european team, the only good team outside Europe is Argentina and Brazil itself, the rest is trash
@@torrecillas999 Don't even underestimate underdogs like Morocco, although being a trash team. The African team had a great run, reaching the semifinals. Also, Saudi Arabia are the only nation to beat the eventual World Cup winners.
Yeah, indeed that's something I really saw happening my whole life at least till now. My first WC memory was that Brazil vs France in 2006 in the quarter-finals WC. Since then, every time Brazil fell off the World Cup it was vs the first european team that they faced post group stage, always in the quarter-finals since 2006 except in 2014 that it happened in a semi-final where that 1-7 game happened. I don't know we usually just credit this for the fact that european football is the strongest in the world nowdays mainly among the top european national teams, so...

Regarding favours for the 2002 world cup, Rivaldo, after the 2002 QF with England said "we have already played the final" which with hindsight makes me wonder if England was one of the only teams that wasn't either paid off, in a group of death, or just not that good.
just look at their semi and final competitor, remember england at the time was at golden generation they r stack to the teeth in all position similar to todays france and 2010 spain. you can argue their golden generation didn't win shit to show for it, but u can not argue at the time england r not better then turkey or a lacklaster germany.
@laujack24 I think that's probably right, but I'm not totally convinced. I went back and looked at the England lineup on the day and it wasn't as star studded as you'd imagine for the era.
Or, he's simply saying England at that time were much better than Turkey/Germany and South Korea - so they were confident they'd already won from that point.
@@jameshunt6414 Maybe a bit of research would have helped you. At that time, England didn't have anybody on the left-wing who was good, hence Sinclair ending up playing. Mills was starting as Gary Neville was injured and out of the tournament. Butt was playing because Gerrard was injured and Lampard hadn't become an England regular yet. Heskey always started back then. That was England's first-choice 11 minus 2 players.

There's a high probability that R9 was poisoned. Something similar happened to the peruvian player Paolo Guerrero during the world cup 2018 qualification. Where he was suspended for playing further matches during the qualification, becuase they had found drug substance in his blood. During training he and his team stayed at a hotel in Europe where he recieved tea from the hotel staff that contained coke. He was the key player for Peru.
Can u make a video Of club UNAM (Pumas Liga MX) they had a godly run in the early 2000s and won the league in 04-05 and 05-06 During this run they had Argentine Cracks Marioni and Leandro and Home Grown talent like Francisco "Kikin" Fonseca. Also Dani Alves currently plays for them
Guess what nationality the FIFA president was when France won their first world cup in these weird circumstances surrounding Ronaldo? That's right, he was French. The match was fixed
I always believed and felt Ronaldo was poisoned the wc was in France staying in a French hotel the final game was against France & 1 of the fifa presidents was French (BLATTER)who was definitely capable of doing anything corrupt to make sure his country won the World Cup on home soil just remember he got exposed years later for corruption in football the only thing NiKE did wrong was force R9 to still play after he was poisoned because of sponsorship contracts & money been made and spent or received already but I don’t blame NiKE other than that cos it’s too much of a coincidence what happened to R9 the night before the game and he even said afterwards that even tho they lost he’s happy he never lost his life the French had to make sure he either did not play or was not even 50% fit enough to play to guarantee they win and the rest of the squad were probably threatened by French police etc cos they all looked scared and timid on that pitch it was probably my 1st heartbreaking moment in football as that was my 1st proper World Cup as a kid old enough to understand the game and supported Brazil I also think the 7 goal defeat to Germany years later was weird but that Brazilian squad was nowhere near as good as the R9 generation but again Neymar was injured coincidentally just before the final trust me football is sometimes scripted
France was given the world cup in 98. What a joke. Brazil was way better. Thats why i still consider the 98 wc the worst and the most fixed i ever seen. Zidane and that whole french team was a freaking joke. Ronaldo was poisoned by some entity no doubt about it.

but at the end of the day its just speculation...argentina was really a strong team over motivated against the french...having their incredible fans behind them just gives them power and messi is the goat no doubt....and the french against brazil 1998 had the same team spirit..one for all , all for one..

By giving them a lot of fake penalties and not suspending messi for the press conference after the semifinal match.
@@DanutPaul Those penalties were valid because they had contact 🤦🏾♂️ look at the Croatia one the keeper literally stopped Alvarez from running and scoring and Messi said nothing wrong in the press from him to be suspended

No he was not...Jardel was
A lot of theories. Only one thing is true, every World Cup, Fifa takes a bribe lol. Well, at least they are consistently following tradition.
Back in 1993 Jairzinho proposed to Kalamata F.C. [a greek football cllub] to take the 17yeard old Ronaldo, about a year before he came to Europe! But Kalamata's President hesitated and then he went to PSV. It was already too late!
Back then, Brazil and Ronaldo were the face of Nike. In 1998, Ronaldo wasn't 100% ready to play the final due health issues but Nike forced the Brazilian FA to play him regardless and we all know what happened. Rigged is a bit strong, more like forced Brazil to make money.
One of the craziest things is that without that seizure R9 could have won 3 Balon D’ors at 21. In a row. In 1996 a 19 year old Ronaldo came second by only 1 vote (he should have won over Sammer to be honest), and in 1998 without the seizure he surely would have won the World Cup and then the Ballon D’or.
Do one specifically on Ronaldo Nazario
11:05 cell phone in France 1998?!?? You must be kidding me. The network was very bad anyway..
Messi and Argentina don’t have a contract with Nike but people still like to say they rigged the world cup
Late 90's and early 2000's Nike ads were FIRE!
This was not the first or last corrupted World Cup. Argentina was gifted the Qatar World Cup for the same reason that France was gifted the 1998 Cup, the romanticism of those teams winning, the Qatar Cup being a chance for a sensational climax for Messi's career, and a big boost for Qatar.
qatar was not rigged, yes the handball vs netherlands was questionable but that ref was absolute garbage and neither side had an advantage. Argentina was given 5 penalties out of which 4 were succesfull in 2018 france got 4 succesful penalties but that wasnt rigged?

@@Pccronicz i agree with your point especially since in the final alone france got 2 penalties

Are you mad? Haven't you seen that final game dude, how can you rig that? How can you rig the Martinez save?
It wasn't rigged and no one tried to kill Ronaldo, the first theory you mention about Xylocaine sounds the most logical and explains everything quite clearly in terms of Ronaldo's weak knees. And are we seriously going to dismiss it just because his doctor who doesn't even know what a convulsion is said no one was taking any injection, obviously they are going to try to hide this information from public for as long as possible.
As for the match itself, yes Nike forced Ronaldo to play because of the huge money deal, but that's not rigging the match, they didn't care who won the final, they just wanted to make sure their investment is represented and Brazil played poorly because they were shook up by Ronaldo's near death experience and couldn't focus on the match, so obviously easy match for France.
Going into fancy and complex theories is fun and all, but in reality things are never so complicated, all the corrupt and shady shit that happens is always done in the simplest way possible, this ain't the movies where the villain plans some crazy sequence of events that would require all the start to align to happen.
Also Brazil would never throw a final just to get a easy group stage in the next World Cup, that makes zero logic.
That 98 World Cup I vividly remember like yesterday. It was thr first World Cup I ever watched since I was too young to even know what football was for the 94 World Cup. But that 98 World Cup final was so off it did not feel right. It felt like decision was already made for 🇫🇷 to win before the game started. 🇧🇷 was playing so bad, I've never seen the golden generation 🇧🇷 play that bad. Ronaldo in that match was pretty much non-existent even Rivaldo & all the other main guys. Something was really wrong with that 98 World Cup final that till this day does not sit well with me, just like with the 06 World Cup final & some of the 22 World Cup matches. I'm not going to deny Zidane's talent because even for me he's one of the best of that generation, but he was definitely not on Ronaldo (R9), Ronaldinho (R10/R11) & Rivaldo (R10) in their prime, especially the first two in their prime.
Zidane's 1998 Ballon D'or was undeserved, just like Ronaldo in 2002. The truth is Ronaldo should've won the Ballon D'or in 1995, 1996, 1997 and 1998. 4 Ballon D'ors and 9-10 world class seasons should be enough for him to be a top 7-8 player of all time at least.
Rivaldo in his prime was the best to me
Thank you for making this video. I remember this was my first WC and I got to love football just a year or two before being 8 years old. That final made no sense even back then, Brazil looked nothing like it was the whole tournament before. Later I watched it many times and it's obvious they threw the match. I believe it was the mix of everything you've mentioned, bribery, sponsors, throwing, fatigued and stressed out players. France was a very good team but not even close to that Brazil. Ronaldo should've been the official GoaT, damn that riggery and curse that horrible injury. R9 is still a legend, but looking back at that 1998 always feels painful and unfair.
“Hours went by before Ronaldo was rushed to the hospital…” WTAF??!
That's right, the team were inadequately prepared for the situation, and first tried to get him to sleep it off! Then to walk it off, then suspected poisoning and that is mainly why they actually sent him to hospital on suspicion.
Thank you waiting for Fifa world cup 2022 because it was more crazy than this from my perspective.
Would u explain?
Or ur mad that Argentina won?
What do you mean by that?
We don't know anything about this world cup. Corruption is everywhere in fifa but we don't know what happened in this world cup. If there was any major incidents, we will know in the upcoming years. Truth will come out. But at the time being we dont know much.
How u penaldo cryer who is the biggest flop in WC history? Argentina was by far the best team, winning 3 trophies in a row against Brazil in Copa America, Italy in la Finalissima 3-0, and france who in 80 min did nothing and giving him 2 penaltis and a last big chance, and then bottling in penaltis.
How was the referees helping them by calling 3 of their goals off side against Saudi Arabia, Gave The Netherlands 10 mins to tie up with them and gave France 2 penalties against them while ignoring France handballs 🤦🏾♂️
@@mo.011tbf fair Netherlands put in some big dudes and sent a shit load of crosses against little ass dudes, genuinely makes sense they tied it up. Also both pens France took were pretty legit, hard to argue those, im a Messi fan and I think the first pen Argentina got was the weakest of all of them and most likely to be called a dive
the same thing happened to Kobe
Just like Quatar and FIFA giving messi the world cup.
Clickbait title. the only thing that could be true is nike sponsorship knowing where it lead to. that doesnt mean they rigged it, it means they just made Ronaldo to play regardless of his health. Losing the world cup final would make them lose money even, which I bet it's what happened since everyone wanted Zidane's brand new adidas boots when he was in Juventus.
Also Giovanni not featuring in the squad in 1999 even if he was before bcs he didnt have a contract with nike.

love the vids keep making em
The one constant in sports is how evil the owners and major corporate leaders will act. They took the peoples games and have taken the focus away from local athletic access of all type.
I think what happened is that Ronaldo was simply injured by the time leading up to the final. Then there was a brash attempt to keep him on by injecting him but it resulted in the convulsions. All because he simply HAD to play for the fans and yes for Nike too. By the time the final started Ronaldo was just a mess and the whole teams morale was just destroyed. I think a big flaw that showed up was not having Romario. Edmundo was too much of a drop off but Romario was elite as well and would’ve been able to play by the time of the knock out stages from injury. Romario would’ve been the perfect cushion for Ronaldo who simply suffered too much physically and he even payed for it more even after that World Cup.
The last goal France scored was passed onto mbappe with his French teammates hand following the corner. But no one saw it until now that of course people can re-watch it and has gone viral. If anyone was rigged it's argentina and messi from a winning goal and a golden boot. U Muppets
Wow! Never heard any of this stuff before. Good job
There is so much conspiracy and garbage dealing going on in sports that I have never paid a single hard-earned cent to see any of them. I'm fed up with most sports. Trust me, even motor racing is rigged. The last race of the 1997 season, the Williams team came under fire for allegedly cutting a spoken agreement with McLaren to hold back so Mika Hakkinen could get his first GP win. Suddenly, it was all hushed up and forgotten. Then the very next year, Hakkinen snores his way to the EASIEST world title ever. I was so disgusted that I just about gave up. I only watched the races when Ferrari were winning. After that, I switched off permanently.
back then, internet isnt widely used, they can control the media
Greed for money ruins everything 😭😭
The Only true thing about this was Nike's demands
Its Nike and Adidas. Adidas make the First rigged on 1978.
I do remember this incident... It all seemed so very strange at that time.
"We may have lost the world cup but we didn't lose our lives"

@@miroslavzagorski loool
@@luisdavasconcellos2914I don't like tinfoil hat stuff, but there is a conspiracy that I love:
After the 1998 incident, FIFA gave Brazil an easy group + the weaker bracket (Turkey and England gold generation were pretty good, though), while in the other side, SK would clean up the shark tank(Spain, Italy, Germany) with "a little help". Once Brazil X SK final was certain Korea would be on his own. Easy win for Brazil, the final wouldn't look suspicious to the world, while Asia would get a "football fever" after their first WC final in 72 years.
But what about France, who won 1998 WC, 2000 Euro, and reached 2006 final? Well, for some reason, they scored 0 goals against Senegal, Denmark and Uruguay, Zidane was injured, France had 10 players against Uruguay because Henry got a red card after only 25 minutes, and missed the game against Denmark... sus.
Perhaps, this explains why the player Leonardo declared the following sentence: "If people knew what happened in the World Cup, they would be disgusted". All Brazilians were shocked and saddened for having missed the soccer World Cup in France. Should not. What is exposed below is the first-hand news that is being investigated by radio stations and newspapers from all over Brazil and some foreigners, more specifically Wall Street Journal of Americas and Gazzeta delo Sport and should be published in the media soon, as soon as the news evidence is gathered and confirms the facts.
Proven fact: Brazil SOLD the world cup to FIFA. The Brazilian starting players were advised, at 13:00 on July 12 (day of the final game), in a meeting involving Mr. Ricardo Teixeira (on the only time the president of the CBF attended a national team briefing), coach Mário Zagallo, Mr. Américo Faria, selection supervisor, and Mr. Ronald Rhovald, representative of sponsor Nike. Reserve players remained in isolation, in their rooms or in the hotel lobby. At first very upset, the players refused to exchange the five-time world championship for hosting the World Cup.
Acceptance came through full payment of prizes, US$70,000.00 for each player, plus a bonus of US$400,000.00 for all players and committee members, for a total of US$23,000,000.00 twenty-three million dollars) through the company Nike. In addition, players who accept the contract with the company Nike in the next 4 years will have the same prize bases as the company's elite players, such as Ronaldo himself, Raul, from Spain, Batistuta, from Argentina and Roberto Carlos, as well. from Brazil.
Even so, Ronaldo refused to play, which forced coach Zagallo to choose Edmundo, saying that Ronaldo was having problems with his left knee (in the first piece of news published at 1:30 pm at the press center) and, shortly afterwards, at 14:15, changing the prognosis for stomach problems). His situation was only resolved after the Nike representative threatened to withdraw his lifetime sponsorship of the player, valued at more than $90,000,000.00 (ninety million dollars) throughout his career.
Thus, it was agreed that Brazil would be defeated during the 'Golden Goal' (overtime with sudden death), but the apathy that befell the starting players meant that France, which absolutely did not participate in this negotiation, scored, in two simple failures of the Brazilian team, the first goals. Mr. Sepp Blatter, the new president of FIFA, a French-Swiss citizen, applauded the collaboration of the Brazilian team, since the world championship brought balance to France at a time of the highest unemployment rates ever recorded in that country, which will be aggravated by the recent introduction of euro (European single currency) and the European common market (ECC).
He also assured Mr. Ricardo Teixeira, through his uncle, João Havelange, that Brazil would have an easier way for the fifth championship in 2002. Please pass this message on to as many people as possible, so that everyone can get to know the filth that surrounds football!
France never won that final. But we let them think they did.
Zidane never had anything on Ronaldo. But we let him think he did.
Just like France argentina recently, they couldn't let messi leave without a WC.

I also had the opportunity to witness this unthinkable and its utterly weird. Something was outrageously wrong. France was gifted the cup. They didn't win it. The Brasilians on the pitch were lost somewhere as if they had just landed on a different planet and they had no idea where they were and what for. Yes, its was rigged for sure.
France rode brazil like a pony that day however brazil lwere drugged by maradonas argentina years back and they admitted to it, he did.
Brasil had the 2 of the best strikers on earth at the time in Ronaldo and Romario. Although many consider prime R9 the pinnacle of individual brilliance as a football player, leaving out Romario who was Still a terrific player was on the coach. With Romario Brasil would still have their leader upfront from the past decade. Stubbornness from the coach cost them thr world cup. France did it's job.
guys from brazil told us nike basically told brazil which players would get a start.
Blatter wanted that cup and the 2000 euro for France at all costs. Nike did make him play even though he was ill.
People say it all excuses, but i remember just before the match there was some strange shit going on, reported around the Brazil team
It is all excuses. Anyone that followed and knew football at the time thought France were the better team. Brazil were very shaky at the back, and France were solid. Maybe the most solid group of defenders in any World Cup. France scored the most goals, and allowed the least throughout the tournament. All that and playing at home, the fact that they won was not a surprise outside of the cry-baby Brazilians and their loudmouth fans.

@dailydosefootball_ it’s okay I don’t want a prize give it to someone else
Makes me wonder about Edmundo now... If he was targeted after this
I didnt know Ronaldo was so big in the 90's
You're born too late to see his magic. He was the OG. CR had to prove himself before making the name "Ronaldo" his back then
@@anturanggatantra2154 by big hes talking about his size. He fat
WTF ?!?!?!
yeah yow, Ronaldo was the real deal man, not like the CR who try to model his game of the Real Ronaldo, who u think CR get the stepover skill from, Brazil Ronaldo, injury cut his career short man, I did even get to see him play 20 games inter, Ronaldo was why I because a fan of inter and Zadan was why I become a fan of Juve, no, in my opinion, Zaden is the best midfielder I ever see play the game and Ronaldo is the best striker I ever see play the game, now that my opinion, persons might different opinion which is fine. and Zadan and Ronaldo in their prime run rings around Messi, but Messi is a great player I can't take not from him
@@Deco_2k young Ronaldo was better than young Messi. at the age of 23 and 24 Messi surpassed him and his prime was definitely better and his longevity. I really wish R9 was never injured then we would be talking about Messi vs Ronaldo - the real one
Regarding favours for the 2002 world cup, Rivaldo, after the 2002 QF with England said "we have already played the final" which with hindsight makes me wonder if England was one of the only teams that wasn't either paid off, in a group of death, or just not that good.
just look at their semi and final competitor, remember england at the time was at golden generation they r stack to the teeth in all position similar to todays france and 2010 spain. you can argue their golden generation didn't win shit to show for it, but u can not argue at the time england r not better then turkey or a lacklaster germany.
@laujack24 I think that's probably right, but I'm not totally convinced. I went back and looked at the England lineup on the day and it wasn't as star studded as you'd imagine for the era.
Or, he's simply saying England at that time were much better than Turkey/Germany and South Korea - so they were confident they'd already won from that point.
@@jameshunt6414 Maybe a bit of research would have helped you. At that time, England didn't have anybody on the left-wing who was good, hence Sinclair ending up playing.
Mills was starting as Gary Neville was injured and out of the tournament.
Butt was playing because Gerrard was injured and Lampard hadn't become an England regular yet.
Heskey always started back then.
That was England's first-choice 11 minus 2 players.
@pinealdreams1064 I didn't say it wasn't England's first choice 11, I said it wasn't as star studded as you'd imagine. Thank you for proving my point. Also I actually watched the game, at the time
There's a high probability that R9 was poisoned. Something similar happened to the peruvian player Paolo Guerrero during the world cup 2018 qualification. Where he was suspended for playing further matches during the qualification, becuase they had found drug substance in his blood. During training he and his team stayed at a hotel in Europe where he recieved tea from the hotel staff that contained coke. He was the key player for Peru.
nike becoming the disney of shoes💀
I am French American i live in France that story of Ronaldo getting food poisoning is 100% is real
One day, one day... the truth will be revealed.
Can you do a video about Juninho?
i bet the same thing happenned last year world cup
at the time nobody talked about this but i was sure that brazil the player play very diferent i can bet that they were paid
Are there books written about this case?
Can u make a video Of club UNAM (Pumas Liga MX) they had a godly run in the early 2000s and won the league in 04-05 and 05-06 During this run they had Argentine Cracks Marioni and Leandro and Home Grown talent like Francisco "Kikin" Fonseca. Also Dani Alves currently plays for them
Has an illuminati vibe
Oh of course he has no idea 🤷
very interesting synopsis.
But in 2022 Argentina really won, you can it in by how the final developed. Muchaaachossss
Guess what nationality the FIFA president was when France won their first world cup in these weird circumstances surrounding Ronaldo? That's right, he was French. The match was fixed
I always believed and felt Ronaldo was poisoned the wc was in France staying in a French hotel the final game was against France & 1 of the fifa presidents was French (BLATTER)who was definitely capable of doing anything corrupt to make sure his country won the World Cup on home soil just remember he got exposed years later for corruption in football the only thing NiKE did wrong was force R9 to still play after he was poisoned because of sponsorship contracts & money been made and spent or received already but I don’t blame NiKE other than that cos it’s too much of a coincidence what happened to R9 the night before the game and he even said afterwards that even tho they lost he’s happy he never lost his life the French had to make sure he either did not play or was not even 50% fit enough to play to guarantee they win and the rest of the squad were probably threatened by French police etc cos they all looked scared and timid on that pitch it was probably my 1st heartbreaking moment in football as that was my 1st proper World Cup as a kid old enough to understand the game and supported Brazil I also think the 7 goal defeat to Germany years later was weird but that Brazilian squad was nowhere near as good as the R9 generation but again Neymar was injured coincidentally just before the final trust me football is sometimes scripted
If brazil won that ronaldo couldve been the "mr world cup" if that makes sence
I prefer Nike balls over Adidas, they're just better
France was given the world cup in 98. What a joke. Brazil was way better. Thats why i still consider the 98 wc the worst and the most fixed i ever seen. Zidane and that whole french team was a freaking joke.
Ronaldo was poisoned by some entity no doubt about it.
exposé of World Cup 2022... if they dont sue you 🤫. great content as always. thank you
Just say I’m a Penaldo fan and i hate seeing Messi win it 😂
@@mo.011bro what, because of people like you things cannot be debated to get us closer to the truth. You are so eager to defend Messi you don’t even consider why he says this
@@HawksVR All Ronaldo fans has been calling the World Cup rigged only because Messi won it without any proof of it 💯
@@mo.011 Of course proof is impossible to find, negotiations like these are made so they are not trackable. But there are plenty of arguments as to why the WC was rigged, if you think a World Cup cannot be rigged just search the story behind both of Argentinas previous titles specially the one held in the middle of a dictatorship in Argentina
@@HawksVR If there was a real reason why it would be rigged i would believe it but they just has been crying because their favorite player Ronaldo didn’t go far in the WC and France fans is also crying because they lost even though the France players themselves said they won it fair 💯
This doccumentary has to continue coz it answers the question as to why Argentina won this World Cup. There's no way Karim had to be dropped for Giroud even after declaring that he was fit. That game against the Netherlands too. Again, how come Portugal's refs against Morocco had all refs from Argentina? Clearly, it seems Portugal were the sole team that had refused to be part of the Fifa script for obvious reasons. Infantino must go home
It would have been harsh to play Benzema after everything Giroud did for the team leading up to it, also remember France did not play good in Euros 2020 and Nations League with Benzema as their striker. The Netherlands game, Paredes deserved a red card but so did Timber earlier, and VVD for punching Paredes after his clumsy challenge.
@@Technical_ability_superiority like Romario Cruyff ? Because they are fine too...
@@jmipraimundo But the thing is those guys played the whole tournament. Benzema hasn’t played a single game it would be a great disrespect to Giroud if they sat him given his 4 goals.
@@Technical_ability_superiority in 1978 and 1998? No they dont play
@@Technical_ability_superiority For God's sake this is a World Cup Final and ain't no way you are preserving the best weapon from your Arsenal. Di Maria had to be played with an injury. The disrespect is that at the end of the day, Giroud got a silver medal, and had Benzema played, they could have won the gold
Lots of revisionist history in this video
