The Zidane Incident

Even if you didn't watch the world cup final you probably heard or read about the soon to be "infamous headbutting." Seems to me that that Italian fella must have said something downright nasty that rewired Zidane brain. I wonder what he said?

p.s. Also notice how the Italian is pinching his nipple as they walk back. WTF?

That's an AWESOME headbutt. DAMN, I wish I could do it like that.

Re: The Zidane Incident

Yeah, I'm thinking it was something about his mother, his country...or the fact that he's nearing the end of his World Cup career. One helluva head butt, though.

Re: The Zidane Incident

And it wasn't even in the other guy's head! The only time I've seen someone go down from a headbutt is when they get hit IN THE HEAD. That's insane.

If you watch a highlight clip of Earl Campbell running the ball with the oilers he hit a rams defender like that thru a gap, and decimated the guy.

Whover Zidane butted, I kinda saw a Divac flop in it.

Re: The Zidane Incident

you've got to remember, this guy is paid to headbutt the ball with as much force as possible. The man knows how to use his dome as a weapon.

Re: The Zidane Incident

P.S. I just read that Zidane won the fan vote for best player in the World Cup. I find that funny.

Soccer is for pussies.

That was a flop all the way.

Re: The Zidane Incident

i found the pic this morning, and it's now my wallpaper (check out flickr.com and do a search on zidane headbutt). here is the Lego interpretation:


Materazzi must have said something dirty to Zizou...however, it's a dirty move to provoke such a reaction, so I don't feel bad for him. And, I don't think it cost the French as much as them subbing out Henry for Trezeguet.

What kind of line would provoke a boneheaded reaction like that?

Did he say "I just saw your momma in the locker room and she asked me to tell you to headbutt me in the chest!"

No words should make someone do THAT. He's just another childish Frenchman who's sick of France losing in EVERYRTHING.
