Why?
Why would he do that? Why would someone with such a stellar career have *that* as the final punctuation? I mean, the Italian guy said something offensive, but c'mon. "Your Coq ain't really all that Sportif" or "Ta mere wears army boots" or ANYTHING can't possibly justify a nasty head butt and a frankly appropriate red card.
But with all that was on the line, with the strong likelihood of penalty kicks and Zizou's freakish skill in that regard...well, it's unfathomable that he would have done that.

Zizou has done this before. During France '98 he got a red card for putting his studs into a Saudi Arabian player and got handed a 2 game suspension.
Having said that, France would not have qualified much less made it to the Finals of 2006 with Zidane. Or for that matter won France '98 or the 2000 Euro Championships without him. His actions were definitely stupid and he'll regret them for the rest of his life but what a player... Re: Re: Zidane...
