Pre-match: French inspiration Zinedine Zidane is still not fit to start and his first-match replacement Youri Djorkaeff is also injured so Johan Micoud earns a call to the attacking midfield slot. That's the only change from the side beaten 1-0 by Senegal while Uruguay have Marcelo Romero replacing Roma's Gianni Guigou.
