Today 27 years ago: Zidane won the World Cup with a double header, and Ronaldo performed in a distracted spirit

On July 12, 1998, Zidane brought the first World Cup championship to France, while Brazilian striker Ronaldo's condition became an unsolved mystery.
Today in 1998, the World Cup final was played in Paris, with the Brazilian team with Ronaldo and the French team led by Qi Zu. It should have been a perfect final, but a question that remains unresolved has cast a mystery to this game. What exactly did the Brazilian striker encounter at the Brazilian team's residence? This problem still plagues many people today. Is it an epilepsy crisis or a heart attack?
No matter what, Ronnie still stepped onto the court that night. He was the last to make a comeback and his soul was distracted throughout the game. The next day, he could hardly walk down the ladder of the plane returning to Rio. Ronaldo shouldn't even play, because the starting lineups were Edmunddo and Bebeto at the beginning, but Zagalo hurriedly changed the starting lineup at the last moment. Inter Milan team doctor Piero Volpi and Brazilian cardiologist Bruno Carru confirmed that Ronnie does have heart problems, which are manifested as carotid sinus contraction.
On the court, Zidane killed the game and became the Golden Globe winner of that year. In the group stage, he was sent off for a red card and suspended for two games (staged by a defender), but he scored twice in the final and scored both headers. Then Petit's shot freezes the score at 3-0, a result that no one expected before the game.
