What the World Cup means to... Christian Eriksen

What was the first World Cup you can remember watching?
The first one I can ever remember was in 1998 in France. I was only six years old at the time so I don’t really remember much of it but I have clearer recollections of the 2002 World Cup when Ronaldinho scored that free-kick for England against Brazil. In 1998 I was only a young kid watching it on television in Denmark.

Who were the stars that year?
To be honest I don’t recall too many of the real stars because, like I said, I was only six, but I do seem to remember Fabien Barthez in goal for France.
