France to meet Italy in final after semi-final cliffhanger

Zinedine Zidane arguably the greatest player of his generation showed nerves of steel and fired home a 33rd minute penalty to send France past brave Portugal 1-0 and into the World Cup final on Sunday where they will meet Italy in Berlin.

Zidane who is set to retire after the tournament can now bow out in glory if France can produce one more match of brilliance and defeat Italy who knocked out Germany 2-0 on Tuesday.

France have more than erased the nightmare of 2002 when they were eliminated as champions in the first round without scoring a goal. They can now win their second world title in three tournaments after the triumph on home soil in 1998.

"We have to go all the way," said the 54-year-old France coach Raymond Domenech

"We cannot just be satisfied with the fact that by getting there is wonderful.

"We will have to go for it and give it our all without giving it a second thought."

It was the second time Zidane broke the hearts of the Portuguese after his golden goal penalty winner in the semi-finals of Euro 2000.

The match was decided in controversial fashion like many moments in this World Cup when Portugal defender Ricardo Carvalho clearly made contact with Thierry Henry inside the box although the Arsenal hero went down theatrically to win the all important penalty.

Zidane then stepped up and shot strongly to the right of Ricardo although the Portuguese keeper dove the right way but was helpless to keep the ball out.

Portugal bombarded the France penalty area in a series of raids but a brilliant defence led by man of the match Lilian Thuram held firm in front of the equally important Fabien Barthez.

"We did everything possible but if you don't score you don't win," said a philosophic Portugal coach Luiz Felipe Scolari.

Regarding some contentious refereeing decisions Scolari was not forthcoming.

"No comment - I'm not going to talk about that."

Henry always knew France would confound the critics

France striker Thierry Henry said after his nation beat Portugal on Wednesday to reach the World Cup final that he had never listened to the critics who savaged the team when they made a poor start to the tournament.

"It is true that we were not playing well, people were saying we were too old. That was pretty harsh, but as soon as you step it up it works," Henry said.

"We were not listening to it, we were playing as a team. That is what the team is all about."

"We defended like lions. After we got the penalty, the way we defended was great," Henry said.

Lilian Thuram, one of the veterans from the 1998-winning team who came out of international retirement to help France qualify, said the joy of being in the final was just as strong eight years later.

"I am 34 today and I feel like a 10-year-old child who is watching the World Cup on television and thinking it is magnificent.

"I am just saying that I am so lucky. We're in the final and I hope that the party is going to continue because this is just too beautiful," said Thuram, who was named man of the match.
