French defender Bixente Lizarazu was part of the great French 98 squad that claimed the World Cup trophy on home soil and then the Euro 2000 trophy a couple of years later. A Bayern Munich player during his greatest achievement in international football, Lizarazu was an excellent fullback with great technical and tactical ability.
