Vincent Philippe Antoine Candela (French pronunciation: ?[v?~s?~ k?~d?'la]; born 24 October 1973) is a French former professional footballer.
With the French national team, Candela won the 1998 FIFA World Cup, as well as UEFA Euro 2000.
Candela was a quick, offensive-minded, and technically skilled left wingback, who was effective at joining the attack as well as being capable in defence, due to his intelligence and tenacity.
Although he preferred playing on the left flank, he was naturally right-footed, and was also capable of playing on the right, both as a full-back, and as a winger, and was an accurate crosser and set-piece taker.
