The clip comes from a 1984 France match against the Netherlands, when Michel Platini was at his peak and went on to lead France to the European Championship that summer. Thierry Roland and Jean-Michel Larqué formed French television's best known commentary pairing for decades, famous for their warm, familiar style and for calling players by their first names. Their goal calls became part of French football culture, shared later on soundboards and social media as a nostalgic shorthand for a great French goal.
