French football legend Zinedine Zidane has tipped the French national team to put in a good performance at Euro 2016, which kicks-off on Friday night, although he did not answer whether France were good enough to go all the way. The current French team is very good and the expectation is that they will play well. Hosts France, who take on Romania on Friday night, are widely considered favourites to win Europe’s biggest tournament. “I know what it feels like playing a big tournament at home, having done so myself during the 1998 World Cup. “I have kept the same discipline as a manager that I had as a player,” he said.
