I've only been watching WC since '94 and don't pay much attention to Euro foots.......

But I don't care what the YT poster intent was.....Hell, I respect ZZ even more for giving us a "jacked up" moment in this so called sport of "football"

Some Arab or Terrorist -type insult probably.

That Italian player running by is the biggest ***** ever. If I was on a field and someone did that to one of my teammates, I would give him a flying roundhouse to the face, World Cup Final or not. The guy saw the whole thing happen and didn't do a thing.

He Got...Jacked UP!:machinegu

man i suggest u should just live in the us and not go anywhere else, football (soccer) is appreciated and been watched for quite over like 100yrs atleast, its one sport noteveryone can play and think they r good, hell try running around the soccer field 10times before u play n then try lasting on the field for 45mins each half n then bring ur junk out talking about ur so called american football. there was a research study about american football on discovery health, it said the max time each of the players put in and for 4hrs game of american football is 8mins. n ppl like u pay to watch that junk. not that i dont watch american football n that i go to tailgating but now that u dissed on football(soccer) it just gets me mad how ppl just live in their own world n think everything they see only is right and everything else is bs. nba is played in the us and they have international players but when they play for the championship, has anyone noticed the say champions of the world. fuck that. clowns go to olympics dont even put up a good game there and that too the best players. n ppl over ere are dying to watch them play. not that basketball is a bad game. but nba aint international.

Clearly the Italian player wasnt saying hello. If the player was hollering a racial slur, Zidane should have knocked him out for everybody to see.

This is from Wikipedia:

Zidane was a member of the French football team in the 1998 FIFA World Cup, scoring two headed goals in the final against Brazil, and playing a major role in the 3-0 victory. Earlier in the competition he received a red card and a two-game suspension in a 4-0 win over Saudi Arabia for stomping on an opposing player for no apparent reason. Reports from people close to Zidane state that the Saudi player in question had provoked him verbally<SUP class=noprint title="Needs citation">[citation needed]</SUP>.

Looks like this isn't the first time he snapped and got red carded in a WC game after a verbal provocation. Wouldn't surprise me if the Italians were using tactics like the '98 incident to get his goat. It worked.

Not a good way to end a storied career -- with ten minutes left in a WC Final OT, he re-wrote his whole legacy with mud.
