Zidane the insane saga continues.



Dailymail has revealed the words uttered to Zidane in an article. A lip reading linguist tells us the words sparked the awesome headbutt on Marco Matterazzi. Matterazzi, the wonderful mouth piece of racist Italy called Zidane the Italian equivalent of 'n*****'., Then Matterazzi and then insulted both his mother and his Muslim background by saying he is the 'son of a terrorist whore. Which as S. Hassan guessed yesterday, is a pretty serious thing to say to a Muslim man.

Finding out that Matterazzi spoke such vile words do not matter. They show nor prove anything. The Italians won the 2006 World Cup. It was bad form and a lack of class. But footballers dont always need class to get the glory. Even with France dominating from the 60th minute, they ended by missing a penalty kick.

It may actually be that I guess we're all going through some soccer withdrawal after having the gooey goodness of a whole month of World Cup Maddness. It was unexpected to be enjoying the game were enganging each other with conversations about the game and what actually happened instead of what happend to the hip hop career of Clint Dempsey.

The disscussion lives on two days and counting. Reddit Comments, Digg Comments.

The head butt seen around the world.

"There are only 3 things that would make a Muslim angry enough to do that. The Italian guy either insulted his mother, his sister or his daughter." - Shirjeel Hassan.


Zinedine Yazid Zidane, France's legendary midfielder completely lost his head in the world cup final versus Italy in the closing moments of the 110th minute. France certainly missed having Zidane in the penalty shootout that followed. The cameras told a story of muslim aggression, but in the following days, a newer better story will surface with nipple tweaking and your mamma jokes told in a dirty Italian accent. Wait...that stuff goes on in soccer? No way!

Searching youtube, you'll find plenty of different accounts and reactions of the incident. The "exclusive" angle, the super Mario cut--basically these will live on for many internet days to come, thank you Zidane!

What actually occurred will be debated until a definitive answer from Zidane and or Materazzi. In the meantime, video gets uploaded as quickly it gets pulled because of copyright infringement. Certainly there will be many more stories to come about this whole thing, but in the meantime enjoy watching the Materazzi video.
