Everyone in the world already knows this but what the hell?
During the World Cup final, France's Zinedine Zidane decided to let his frustration get the better of him and headbutt Marco Materazzi. Of course, this gave him a red flag and an early exit. Schmuck. Zidane could of ended his career with a World Cup win however, he chose to end it in shame. Not only did he ruin it for himself, his teammates, and all of France (there is little doubt that Zidane would have made a difference when it came to France's PKs), he defined his legacy as "the guy who headbutted some dude in the chest." Grats to Italy on the win.

All good points from someone that knows a lot more a bout the sport than I (or anyone I know, for that matter). But to say "His penalty was the most brilliant display of confidence and skill?" I don't know about that. A display of confidence, sure. But brilliant?
My point was, he knows better. He may be one of the best tacticians in the world butt that's irrelevant, to me, if he's an asshole.
The rumor I heard was that Materazzi muttered something about Zidane being a terrorist.
Actually it probably went something like this, "Yo, Zidane. You know, if you loose this match, the terrorists win."
