Encyclopedia > 2003 FIFA Confederations Cup

The 2003 Confederations Cup football tournament was held in France in June 2003. France retained the title they had won in 2001, but the tournament was overshadowed by the death of Cameroon player Marc-Vivien Foé, who died of heart failure in his side's semi-final against Colombia. Foé's death united the France and Cameroon teams in the final match; after France's victory, their captain Marcel Desailly lifted the trophy together with his Cameroon counterpart, Rigobert Song. The Confederations Cup The FIFA Confederations Cup is a football (soccer) tournament for national teams, held every four years (previously every two years) by FIFA. It is contested by the winners of each of the six FIFA confederation championships (CAF, CONMEBOL, UEFA, AFC, OFC, CONCACAF), along with the FIFA World... A player (wearing the red kit) has penetrated the defence (in the white kit) and is taking a shot at goal. ... Year 2003 (MMIII) was a common year starting on Wednesday (link displays 2003 calendar) of the Gregorian calendar. ... The 2001 Confederations Cup tournament was co-hosted by South Korea and Japan, who were also hosts for the 2002 FIFA World Cup finals. ... Marc-Vivien Foé Marc-Vivien Foé (May 1, 1975 – June 26, 2003) was a Cameroonian midfield football player, born in Nkolo, Centre Province, Cameroon. ... Marcel Desailly (born September 7, 1968 in Accra, Ghana as Odenke Abbey) is a former French football player and a former star for its national team, with whom he won the 1998 FIFA World Cup and Euro 2000. ... Rigobert Song Bahanag (born July 1, 1976) is a Cameroonian football player who, as of 2007, is playing for Galatasaray. ...


It was a very strange match, played even though team players from both sides had explicitly stated that the match should not be played out of respect for Foé. The Cameroon players did their best to take the trophy home in honour of their team mate, while the only French player to seem interested and play at his best was Thierry Henry. His golden goal in extra time gave France the trophy. Thierry Daniel Henry (born 17 August 1977 in (Les Ulis, Essonne) Paris, France) is a French football player. ... The golden goal was a method used in football to decide the winner of games in elimination matches which end in a draw after the end of ordinary time (90 minutes). ...


The presentation of medals and trophies has to be one of football's most moving episodes. Two Cameroon players held a gigantic photo of Foé, and a runner-up medal was hung to the edge of the photo too. When Marcel Desailly was presented with the Confederations Cup, he did not lift it up high, but held it in unison with Cameroon captain Rigobert Song. Foé finished third in media voting for player of the tournament and was posthumously awarded the Bronze Ball at its conclusion. Marcel Desailly (born September 7, 1968 in Accra, Ghana as Odenke Abbey) is a former French football player and a former star for its national team, with whom he won the 1998 FIFA World Cup and Euro 2000. ... Rigobert Song Bahanag (born July 1, 1976) is a Cameroonian football player who, as of 2007, is playing for Galatasaray. ...
