What a shame, that the brilliant Zizou would end his international career in such a primal way. FOX Sports reports that Zidane’s actions were prompted by a racial slur from the Italian Materazzi, which explains his quick change of character if not the headbutt itself.
In any case, it was a fantastic event and I can’t believe I have to wait another four years.

That bit of French commentary has already become symbolic of Zidane’s moment of madness! First saw the clip on Centripetal Notion.
Materazzi is disliked by nearly all soccer fans. But even if he did pass some comments about Zidane’s family or race, hasn’t he heard them all in his long career? It was a crazy reaction, there’s definitely a darker side to him.
