The commentator says that Didier Six scores the most beautiful goal of his career in this game. Indeed, on a Michel Platini’s pass, he gets rid of both Ze Maria and Pereira jongling the ball before lodging a rocket under the bar. Note that his goal against Kowait in 1982 was not bad either. Didier Six could really do the most incredible things with a ball (when he put his mind to it).
A much better look at Didier Six’s goal in this video. Thierry Roland (with Bernard Père) does the commenting. Lacombe (16), Sahnoun and Bathenay congratulate the goal scorer.
