Tournoi de France 1997

Tournoi de France 1997

The "Tournoi de France" (French for "Tournament of France") was a friendly international football tournament held in Paris and other cities of France in early June of 1997 as a warm-up to the 1998 FIFA World Cup. The four national teams participating at the tournament were Brazil, England, hosts France, and Italy. They played against each other in a single round-robin tournament with the group winner also being the winner of the tournament.

England won the tournament after collecting six points by winning their first two matches, against Italy and France, and losing one to Brazil when already the tournament winners. The South Americans were second with five points, a product of a win and two draws. Perhaps the most memorable match was the 3-3 draw between Italy and Brazil, which included two goals from then 22-year-old Alessandro Del Piero and one goal apiece from Romário and Ronaldo as well as one own goal from each of the teams. The Tournoi de France also included the famous Roberto Carlos free kick in the 21st minute of the opening match against France. Del Piero was the top goalscorer of the tournament with three goals scored while Romário scored twice.
