wow. fifa deserves praise for this. they overlooked a mistake on his part and looked at his overall achievement in the cup.

it's ashame that this incident happened, for both parties. unless sidane and matterazzi come out and say what was said then everything is going to be speculation, except the headbutt part. if FIFA actually going to do anything about this? they really can't do anything to Zidane since he's done with international football.

Originally posted by svens_bath it should read "fvcker" according to the french journalist, another of the players heard what was said. obviously we might never find out the truth, but it would have to take something like that to elicit the response that zidane showed. he is apparantly very protective of his Algerian heritage, so its likely it isnt far off the truth.

quote:

Sources in France say it is believed Materazzi insulted Zidane's mother. Materazzi himself has not spoken publicly about the incident except to deny a claim by Paris-based anti-racism group SOS Racism, made on Monday, that he had called Zidane "a dirty terrorist". "It is absolutely not true, I did not call him a terrorist. I'm ignorant. I don't even know what the word means," the Italian news agency Ansa quoted Materazzi as saying after the Italian team returned to Rome.

@ Materazzi claiming he's ignorant

what a fuking clown.

Few things:

1- Dont expect Materazzi to publicly say what he said on the pitch - which idiot would go like: "oh, yeh, i called him a fkn terrorist"....

2- "I am an ignorant - dont know what the word terrorist means" - ffs, what are we? 6 years old to believe this?

3- There was something about 'muslim' and 'terrorist' (said on french radio)

4- It's the final, you've played 110 minutes, you're a great player, your shoulder got fucked and you almost had to stop playing, you're stressed, and you're about to win cuz you've dominated the 2nd half and 2 overtimes, and you get an insult - calm down? call him ugly? pull his hair? FUCK NO, KILL THE ******. so stop sayin like fkn idiots "you shouldnt lose it, shouldnt react this way, bla bla bla".

I'm not condoning what he did, but I was saying this same thing last night. I mean, imagine you're on your way out of international football, leaving while still at the height of your game and as one of the best players in history. Only a few people really know exactly what, if anything was said, but from the reports so far, consider that you've worked your way through the ranks under discrimination for your heritage, and even on your last day, going out as a legend, some asshole undermines everything you've accomplished and calls you a terrorist just because of where you were born. I can't imagine taking it too well if it were me in his shoes.

Not exactly the model reaction, but at the same time, sometimes your emotions just get the better of you. This'll be forgotten by most people in a few years.

Just like Beckham's mental lapse in 1998, Zidane will be forgiven after some bitterness. But unlike Golden Balls, Zidane actually won something for France and it won't be long before all French fans remember that.

Originally posted by plaxx Truly Materazzi must've said something racist to really tick off Zidane. Zidance is such a matured player, I highly doubt he would do something like that in a game of that caliber. Italian team is so childish, I dont think they knew what they had just won... fondling the cup like its a toy, putting a hat on it, and in one point Materazzi even tried to put it in his shirt... stupid. ......................................... ...and thats their captain To me, Zidane still played great thoroughout the whole cup, and I wont let something like this take over his whole career an what he has contributed to the game. I just wish he could headbutt the rest of the team too, except Buffon, he's cool. Go Zidane!!!

stfu all you haters!! if materazzi was stupid to offend with words zidane, then zizou was double stupid to react like that. why use violence to resolve things? don't we have enough? wtf that is a football game not a war...
I personally still respect both zidane who remains the best wc player and materazzi one of the best italian defender
so stop throwing shit in the air being a sick fan of one side or the other.

i actally think now that zidane has gone up in my estimations after this..its easier to walk away in a cup final..but there are some things that are more important than football, having your dignity and self-respect for a start. he shouldve stuck the nut in his face and taught the rat a lesson.

only a terrorist would react the way Zizou did

and I dont care what Materazzi said everyone says shit to get under a players skin in football obviously you people do not play if you did I would make you bitches cry and want to do shit worst than Zizou.

thats called honor.

if it is racism, why should he have to put up with it, and why should anything be allowed to be said just because theyre on a football pitch? some things are just bang out of order and there is no place for them anywhere.

oh please who even is saying this i dont think we will ever find out even if materazzi didnt say this Zidane will come out and say he did just to get materazzi in trouble and labeled a racist because that is what the french press is reporting.

its a non issue to me french can go fuck off see you in euro qualifying I bet half you n00bs didnt even know that we have you in the group or know what the Euro is....goodbye 4 year n00bs (not you sven

There isn't anything more important in life than dignity and honor... Zidane walked off the pitch with his head high and proud. If you can justify racist comments as means to provoke a player, then in my mind you're just another fucked up individual.. No game, No world cup is worth being racist.

And Matterazzi's response is just pathetic... he doesn't know what terrorism is, please.

I know there's a code of honor between players and what is said on the pitch stays on the pitch... but after seeing what happened, someone should step in and clear all this mess.

lol

hahaha i really don't think Zidane left the field with his head high and proud after that.

and i don't see how calling someone a terrorist is racism. a terrorist is a radical who employs terror as a political weapon. It dosen't mean arab or muslim. A terrorist can be any nationality.

a racial slur would be calling a black person, n i gger, a chinese - chink, a jew - kike, a latin - spic etc.

get your facts straight.

Zidane chose to take it as an insult and acted like such.

if you cant see the racial slur out of calling zidane a terrorist then you should probably not talk about this anymore to be honest

lol my thoughts exactly.

Danny, if you haven't read your history facts or you expect everyone in this forum not to be educated, I suggest you don't even type the word racism let alone trying to convince me of getting my "facts straight"...

You might know your football a lot, but be careful about everyone's level of education here.

i know about Zidanes nationality. Still, he took it too personally and could've shrugged it off for fucks sakes. If you can't see how idiotic his action was, then you're probably just as idiotic as he is.

you have to admit it mustve been somthing pretty low to make him lose it like that. it is known that zidane is very protective of his heritage and a racial slur is something that could provoke a fierce response from him. i realise he is a bit of a hardman, but to do something like that i think you would have to push a very special button in zidane.
