MSNBC is reporting that Zidane has apologigied for his actions on French TV tonight. Another example of civilized French Class in action.......

wrong. he only apologised to the 'children' who watched it. nobody else. in fact he said he'd do it all again

just what i expected from a man that's been sent off 14 times and has a history of madness

they've just had the French football correspondent on Talk Sport here in the UK. and he was amazed that Zidane hadn't 'apologised' or shown any remorse

he also said Zidane was living in a bubble and thought he was above criticism. and this was from a FRENCH man!

lol

time to take back his player of the tournament title methinks

yes and he repeated it many times.

But at the same time he does not regret the reaction he had at that very moment because of the rude insults.

he said that it would be good to focus on the provocation as much as on the reaction

all this zidane bashing is just out of hand...

should i reproduce my "ode to zidane" which i posted on the italy wins thread?

why is a head butt that much more terrible than all the violent fouls we see in soccer repeatedly???

i mean i thought he clearly lost his head and blew it but whats up with the "punishment brigade" i see here???

how many times has this idiot been sent off for stupidty stonefan ?

is it 14 times or am i wrong ?

are the people bashing zidane repeatedly soccer fans anyways? things happen in soccer guys..its a contact sport.... the guy was being taunted and insulted (his mom and sister) and he lost his cool.... not the end of the world... the US press- which knows nothing of soccer- is reporting the story as if zidane cost france the cup which is complete baloney. i mean it would most likely hav gone to pks anyways and trezeguet missed his kick by 3 to 5 inches.... it happens!

FROGS LOST HAHAHAHA HAHAHAH AHAHAHAH HAHAHA...... NEVER TRUST A FRENCHY......SNIVELING< WHINY< and have NO BACKBONE whats so ever... GOD's GIFT TO US ALL IS WHAT THEY WOULD HAVE YOU THINK... when in reality.... the stink, they are rude... the wines is NOT all that.. they are NOT the best cooks... way to many saucey foods.......BORING BORING BORING......a country full of 50 cent millionaires........ and THEY LOST HAHAH AHAH HAH AHA HA HAHA AHAH... I LOVE THIS......PISSY PISSY .....nanna nanna na na!!!!

NOW THIS IS ... A... GAS GAS GAS!!!!!

14 times in what??? 800 matches??? does not sound like THAT much..

yes he's got a temper..so what... so do i and you're ticking me off!!!!!!!!

eric's back..time to move on... c-ya!

Yeah, Zidane is the King, he did what he did and that's it. Who'll remember the other guy in 10 years anyways... What's his name already ? ;0)

no. i'm a football supporter

your mickey mouse games might end in brawls. football doesn't. headbutting an opponent is something only the lowest of the low do

but it doesn't matter now. the vulgar git is finished in the game and we can move on without him

he answered to provocations but I admit it's not an example to react brutally.

It's just a shame that people like you only focus on reactions and not on provocations.

this idiot as you call him was one of the best players ever !

you must be english to be so disrespectful aren't you ?

J'EMMERDE LA FRANCE!!!!!

he was a great footballer. a wonderful one. but now he'll just be remembered as a thug

they say @#$%& was a good artist. i prefer to remember him for the c**t that he really was though

zidane was by far the best thing about the cup... i enjoyed watching him play tremendously and i'm not going to get overexcited about a headbutt..he made a mistake... he paid for it... does it negate the dozens of times i enjoyed watching him play my favorite game at the highest level.. of course not...

ps i will admit it was a poor cup

pauvre taré va !!
dégénéré du bulbe !!

ah the @#$%& comparison....

zidane=@#$%&

now i've heard it all


i thought crouch was a thug myself.. mauling sacho...jerking his head by his braids while climbing on top of him to head that ball in that put england through.......

but no one talks about crouchy do they?

don't get it..zidane committed a foul .. got red carded (probably by illegal use of replay but we will never know).. and france lost


so what??? move on... he's a tremendous footballer ..the best world cup footballer since maradona and before him pele..... no head butt is going to erase that...

Crouch is a useless lanky donkey. you have my word on it!

Come on...
How all the planet remembers Eric Cantona ?
As an exceptional football player or with this picture ?

I would like to say one thing.
Everybody is over-reacting to this Zidane thing.
Every time is match day things like these happen.
Zidane was wrong? YES!
Is he a criminal? NO!
Let's cut the shit and get back talking Rolling Stones.

that picture. and for being a pompous prick

i rest my case

there's a theme running here isn't there. two players doing beyond mental things and both of them were French. is it a coincidence ?

If you want we can speak about Paul Gascoigne or Rooney...

please do. what do you want to speak about ? i don't think (you can correct me) that either of them have either headbutted an opponent or lunged at a supporter

but if you know different tell me

for the record. Gascoigne is a drunken twat, and Rooney is a pug-faced kid who may or may not become a great player

yyeeaaahhhh JP, excellent examples !

as for Cantona, he was insulted by a ridiculous supporter. So, he reacted.

Nice to see Eric having a good time there :-)

But... here's some true art:

On the whole I agree, but would trezeguet have been kicking at all if zidane was available? (I have no idea, but that argument is there.)

thanks for this wonderful link Hurriganes

Zizou, please don't go !
