Bravo Zizou, on est tous avec toi.

Whats the problem with you people? Can a real soccer fan try to excuse a totally unacceptable head-butt by saying that Materazzi insulted Zidane. Players insult each other continuously during a match, some insult back but Zizou's class was transmitted with an obscene head-butt ... and now those who 'think' they are football fans, are trying to put Materazzi into shame whilst absolving Zidane - Totally unbeleivable. We need to admit that what we thaught was a hero has turned into a villain who is not able to control his emotions not even during a World Cup final match and last match of his career. Zidane should be ashamed for his actions and FIFA should be more ashamed for giving him the best player award. Shame on those trying to defend Zidane ... some actions can never be excused (Zidane's is a case in point!). I can’t beleive that people are turning the fault on Materazzi.

Seems like people are forgetting that Zidane actually *headbutted* the Italian defender. Every week players all around the world insult each other. Most of the times they ignore the insults, sometimes they don't. You would expect a so-called champion like Zidane to keep his cool, given his class and experience. He completely lost it on Sunday, and was rightly sent off. If FIFA were serious, they would ban him for at least 4-5 matches. Regardless of how this ends, Italy are World Champions: they were the best team in the tournament and deserved to win! Well done Italia!

Clearly anything said by a member of a team famous for phantom dives and feigned injuries would be expected to display a similar flair for telling the truth.
