Sylvain Wiltord is a hero…

Sylvain Wiltord x Misericordia

Sylvain Wiltord has won Euro 2000 and reached the finals of the 2006 FIFA World Cup with the French national team.
For France, Wiltord has been capped 90 times, scoring 26 goals. One of those goals came in the 94th minute of the Euro 2000 final, tying Italy. France then won the title on a golden goal by David Trézéguet. He also played for his country in the next two World Cups and in Euro 2004.
Wiltord was signed by English club Arsenal for a club-record £13,000,000 in August 2000, weeks after scoring at the Euro 2000 final. He played 175 times for the Gunners, occasionally pairing Thierry Henry up front or otherwise starting either from the bench or on the wing. The highlight of his Arsenal career was scoring his goal at Old Trafford, a 1-0 win which clinched the 2002 FA Premier League title at the home ground of arch-rivals Manchester United.
Moving to Lyon, Wiltord found further success, winning two league titles and reaching the quarter-finals of the UEFA Champions League in successive seasons.
Sylvain wears Misericordia. And we are very very happy…
