Italy WINS!!!!

I heard Materazzi called him a "dirty terrorist" or "son of a terrorist whore".

Those two are currently what most people are saying happened. If it were the latter, you can understand why Zidane got so mad so quickly, because if I'm not mistaken, his mother is either terminally ill or passed away recently.

Shit like that gets tossed around in high school sports

Exactly, high school sports...Materazzi's supposed to be a professional. You blame Zidane for being provoked?

[ertyu]

not saying what materazzi did was right, but that doesnt give zidane the right to headbutt him. They were both in the wrong, zidane moreso

[Elcura]

Zidane should've just turned around and said "Your mother is a 3 legged Ninja"

Yes, I actually heard that insult on the bus a few days ago, along with "Your mother is a 1 legged kick boxer"

Both insults fall roughly on the same level as Materazzi.

High school sport, college sports, pro sports...your naive as hell if you think zidane had never insulted someone during a game. Btw, Sportscenter is who reported the BBC thing.

well its been surfaced now that what materazzi said translated into something like "I wish a death upon your family" Which even though it sounds bad in english, isnt really a big insult in italian. In italy they use that insult like america uses "your mom" insults lol.

I think it is awesome materazzi pissed him off so bad he own'd himself out of the WC.

I love how people who knew nothing about Soccer for the last World Cup, all of the sudden start acting like experts when it finally starts to become somewhat popular.

[ertyu]

I dont know if that was directed at me but I've been following soccer since I was about 8.

I love how people suddenly assume they know everything about random people in the internet.

Serious business.

Doubts over whether a match official relied on video evidence of Zidane's head butt to Italian defender Marco Materazzi meant the final should be replayed, lawyer Mehana Mouhou said.

Lmao poor guy. He's just a little n00b lawyer trying to make himself a name.
