All you Italian opposers, SHUT UP!
SHUT UP, SHUT UP, SHUT UP! especially you, whatshisface who called all Italians “dirty Italians”. So one of them acted like a jerk, you blame the whole team?! GROW UP! Zidane himself behaved immaturely. Why does he let this drag him down until the world cup finals against Italy? You can’t blame this all on Materazzi. YOU SHUT THE HELL UP WHENEVER YOU CALL ITALIANS DIRTY, SHUT THE HELL UP!
You’re just jealous because you’re not Italian!
That’s the only reason.

Zidane will not repeat what was said because he is just smart enough not to do that. It can be proved with proper lip readers during an investigation, then why would he repeat it, it would just be worst, come on!

Zidane is “el maestro” he surely had more than enough provocation to rage out…Materazzi’s own kids call hima monster, he will never be anything close to what Zidane was and is. Materazzi would talk bad about his own family if he had to piss someone off, dirty italians bring nothing but shame to soccer, and that is not beautiful futbol.
i believe that Zidane’s conscience is clear, he apologized to the kids and realizes it is unforgivable, but materazzi is an idiot “im, ignorant, i don’t even know what a terrorist is…”……COMMON!!! say what u said, stand up for the truth and be mocked for your foolishness.
I gotta say though, if Zidane wouldn’t have reacted like i would’ve (which is headbutting him), France would’ve had a 50% chance at the cup, in a way he ended his career w/ a red, lost game, and explosion of controversy.
In other words, the truth needs to come out so the world knows, and zidane wil be just fine doing what he does and being the best at it, who ever praised materazzi?? one or two people… ha ha ha ha ha

At the end of the day though you cannot go around headbutting people on the football pitch, even if you are one of the best players in the world.

I don’t understand why Zidane just doesn’t come out and say what was said. Does he want this to drag on and on and on?

If it was a racist slur on Zidane then I think some action has to be taken by FIFA. It’s like calling an Irish player a “Finian terrorist” or a German player a “Nazi”. I remember you posted on some of the chants by Rangers fans, that UEFA did not punish Rangers for. That decision baffled me, there is no place for prejudice either on the pitch or in the stands. Why should players accept racist abuse, I remeber Cantona also reacted to taunts. But, let’s assume Materazzi didn’t say it, you know, innocent until proven guilty.

That dumb ass rebuttal by Materazzi convinces me he’s guilty.
