Any real football fan, will know that Zinedine Zidane, was one of the greatest players of all tme, maybe even the greatest!
I know headbutting is not a great thing and should definatley not be done in a world cup final let alone at all, but aside from that the guy was pure genius on the pitch, he brought football to new levels. Im sure the guy feels like shit today, dont you think people should lay off him? He knows he did wrong, we all make mistakes and he's gotta live with it...but you cant ignore his years of brilliance! Zizou truely is and will remain a footballing legend!!!!

I think most votes for the golden ball are in by halftime of the final game. The vote was final before the headbutt...
just a fun fact. Either way, great player, hell of a day.

i read a few articles and i love how everyone is saying "it's the world cup! it's the final! what was he thinking?!".
i'm pretty sure Zidane more than anyone knows it's the world cup and it's the final.. this can't be happening out of the blue.
i (like most other french and non-french i guess) am more sad about this incident happening tonight than France losing the game and the cup.
There's a WC every 4 years, but this.. it's not how it deserved to end for him.
He's still high up there for me.

They think that the guy called Zidane a terrorist. He is half arab or something.

shhh... 1st rule about fight club, is you don't talk about fight club.

you could sell the concept to Blanka janne, but you'd have to abbreviate it to read "hdbtt"

every great player has his "hand of God" moment...

touching, badmouthing.. this built up, didn't it?
ok, I should prolly stop acting like I give shit about soccer. I only saw this action (still, in a repeat) cause the Friends rerun on channel4 turned out to be the Ben Stiller episode and I couldn't force myself to watch it again, so switched back to the game.

"I can lip read Italian.
After reviewing the tape, I can make out the following dialogue:Zidane: Materazzi, you pinch me like an Italian whore.
Materrazzi: You Algerians look like monkeys.
Zidane: Materazzi, I demand satisfaction!
Materrazzi: F**k you, F**k Algeria, F**k your dogs.Upon this insult, Zidane rightfully places the last and greatest header of his life.
Vie le France!!!"

Yeah, my love-crush for Zidane will live on. Just feel really sad FOR HIM!
Thanks for the youtube clip - I see it now - f--king Italians with their gay wrap-arounds, falling all over the place like a bunch of actor wannabees getting busted for premier-league level corruption.
How am I supposed to respect that bullshit -- Piss off!
I have a spare bedroom in my LA apartment BTW Maserrati - or whatever you're name is - come over here and get yourself a fucking talent agent.
:-) Feel better now, rant over.

Obviously a stupid thing to do. I wonder what that other player was saying to him.
Anyhoo...I'm sad the French didn't win :(
- jondj240
no, i think he is great too but you have to wonder if he continued to play would he let another clown get into his head to get him out of the game.
i'd like to think he wouldn't...
whats most staggering about all this is the timing. if it had happen in the other rounds, no biggie. but his final game of his career with the world cup on the line.
Zidane makes the game looks easy, seems to play it effortlessly...only a few in their sports do that.

blue - you thief!!!!!

Irish TV claims Materazzi called him a “son of a muslim whore”.
I reckon he’d obviously watched Steve Martin’s Three Amigos! (1986) the night before the game heard “son of a motherless goat” and it all got lost in translation.

Lets hope the italian decides to think again before being an annoying little twat next time. He is just as responsible.
