Zinedine Zidane’s moment of world cup headbutt madness
It was one of the most amazing things I have ever seen on a football field.
It was an act of gratuitous violence that has no place on a football field or anywhere in life for that matter. Obviously Materazzi is well schooled in the Australian Cricketers art of ‘sledging’. If you dont know what sledging is, it is when you say something to one of the opposition to put them off their game. It goes on all the time in all sports and is often part of the craic and banter of competing.
That being said Materazzi was able to push Zidanes button like I have never seen a button pushed, it will be interesting to see what comes out. I would not be suprised if the comment was of a racist nature bearing in mind Zidanes Algerian background.

Whatever the comment was I would have thought that Zidane would have heard it all before in his career and that’s what makes his reaction so mystifying. I wish I knew more about Zidane’s background so I could comment further. Lets hope it is not the start of further self destructive behaviour.
