Berlin - Zinedine Zidane's successful
seventh minute penalty for France against Italy means he has become the fourth player to score three goals in the history
of the World Cup final.
Geoff Hurst scored three goals in England's 4-2 win over
West Germany in 1966 and is the only man to score a hat-trick in
the final.
Pele scored three times in two finals with two goals in
Brazil's 5-2 win over Sweden in 1958 and one in the 4-1 victory
over Italy in 1970, while Vava also scored twice for Brazil in
their 1958 win and another against Czechoslovakia in a 3-1
victory in 1962.
