Watch Emmanuel Petit recreate his goal from the 1998 World Cup final on Soccer AM

Emmanuel Petit recreated his famous World Cup final goal against Brazil when he appeared on Soccer AM.

The former France midfielder scored his country's third in a 3-0 victory at the Stade de France to help win the World Cup on home soil in 1998.

Two headers by Zinedine Zidane put France ahead at half-time before Marcel Desailly was sent off on 68 minutes.

The hosts held on until deep into added time and sealed their triumph through Petit, who latched onto Arsenal team-mate Patrick Vieira's through ball and turned his low shot past Brazil goalkeeper Claudio Taffarel.
