I think something more must have done down. Zidane has always had a temper but there were two other things going on on the field from what my coverage showed. I wonder if one of them contributed, or if Materazi had done something to Z earlier too? I just cannot imagine a player as controlled as he is, in that game, right after Henry was sub'd off losing his cool over a one-off wording.

Well, at the time I thought it was quite funny really.

But a bad stage to do it on, we will remember him more for it, I'm sure.

Yeah, you're right. Now that I've cooled off some, I'm thinking straight now and realize that Zidane should have known better. Those Italian defenders are known to play dirty like that. But doing that to Zidane on his last World Cup game was disrespectful I think Materazzi kind of knew that Zidane was vulnerable at that time.

What was Rhinozine zidane thinking? Ive seen him do that for Juventus before but he should have had more composure on an occasion like this.

I didnt think he was going to get sent off at first, Im wondering if the linesman seen the head-butt on the big screen?

That is true. My guess is something really really nasty was said. Italy seems to be good at [beep!] people off. Still though, I expect more restraint out of Zidane. I'm so disappointed by this ending.


when that dutch player said nasty things and pushed figo and he made the headbutt, figo was the one at fautl. when Rooney kicked the other int the groin, it was ronaldo's fault, and now, the fault that zidane lost his mind was because the other guy insulted him. players sould get a grip, and fans too Laughing

The only guilty on the headbutt is Zidane. Someone said he is a human being, that's true, and, as a human being, he has the ability to breath deeply, count to 10 and control himself. He knows better than this.

Worst career finish ever?
