LUCA ZIDANE, THE son of Zinedine, was instrumental in helping his native France book their place in the final of the Uefa U17 European Championships today.
When their semi-final with Belgium ended 1-1 and went to a penalty shootout, the Real Madrid goalkeeper stepped up to keep out three spot-kicks and earn them a 2-1 shootout win.
The teenage stopper even had the confidence to take a penalty himself… but clipped the crossbar with his Panenka attempt.

Luca would have been eight years old when the the 2006 World Cup final took place but he was obviously watching his father closely.

France will play wither Germany or Russia in the final.
all I can say is he’s a brilliant rugby player!
