@GreenTea yeah thats part of the slander campaign that went against materazzi. You can see the result of it everywhere in this comment section, very few people seem to know how it went down: for the record. *after materazzi previously grabbed his shirt during the game, he looked intensely at zidane* Zidane: "I'll give you my shirt after the match" (a clear taunt) Materazzi: "I'd prefer your sister" That was how it went, he didn't insult his sister, he insulted him, implying his value is less than her's.

@@Anlazo you never specified Midfielder, also Meazza?
@@ColdPalmerFanClub you can’t compare. They both played in different eras. Two different games
@@nukedude2433 fair
Legend has it Materazzi can still feel the impact of the Zidane’s headbutt to this day
I bet he fkn can!! ☠️
This made zizou even more legendary
no it made him lose the world cup, embarrassed himself, got sent off his last game ever and lost all the respect for not keeping the cool and doing that
@@firesdumb Lost Respect ? Which Respect ? Italians ?
Respect From his Country and Family is more important then Living with Fake Respect from Italians
He answered the way it should be Answered for that dirty joke ..
😷 French Forgiven Him Madrid Loves
He have respect of all Except Bale and Italy 😂😂😂
@@firesdumb How it made him lose WC? They would still go to penalties and Italy would maybe still win. Zidane's act didn't have direct impact on the game
Yes... A legendary idiot 🤣
@@masfiqratul7559 Italy respects Zidane, you don't know any italians. There is also a pop song about Zidane, he was a Juventus player And he was a Great player. We won our fourth WC thanks to our players but nobody in Italy would argue to say Zidane was a nobody
He could chose to be a winner .. but he chose to be a legend 🙏
The move is so pure. Jokes apart it's add just legendary to Zinedine Zidane. Saviour as a French nation. Saviour of real Madrid as player and get back with champions league streak as a manager. What a legend
Zidane will always be a legend for us .
And he just became an even bigger footballing figure after this!
He chose his family over the trophy, Great ☺️🙌
best midfielder of all time
Hehe....One of them for sure 👍🏼
Indeed he is the 🐐 midfielder
My world XI is ZOFF and RB is Carlos Alberto & 2 FB's are BARESI & BECKENBAEUR & MALDINI is LB & BEST & PLATINI & ZIDANE in midfield & C RONALDO & MESSI & MARADONA up front.
@Pedro Guedes lets face it.....ronaldinho is overrated
@Pedro Guedes
skillful - YES
Consistent - NO
He won't be in my top 15 greatest midfielders of all time
His game against brasil was an art.
Many of modern us don't even know or remember who won the cup or there is no reason, but this legendary headbutt stuck on all of our heads for sure
If you don't remember players like Buffon, Del Piero, Cannavaro, Pirlo, Totti, Gattuso, Zambrotta, Nesta, Inzaghi, etc winning the World Cup, then you simply don't know football lol. It was literally one of the most legendary lineups, from top to bottom, in international football history
@@jordankeyton6271 ngl not a big football fan but never heard of them yet i know about this headbutt lol
Maybe not you, but anyone who likes and knows football knows the winner
Moral is bigger and greater than any kind of cup, even world cup, Zidane is always legend and this acts becomes him a King ..
Zidane is Legend but deep inside we all know that this moment kills Zidane everyday
EVERY day.
Because for all his great football achievements...THIS is what he will be remembered for.

Ask 10 random people off the streets...bet ya the "headbutt" beats world cup winner!
Bro chose to defend his family over a World Cup. What a legend
Yoo algerian.. What do you expect
what do you mean
@@BADD_5.0 Materazzi insulted Zidane's sister that's the reason of the headbutt
if he hadn't been expelled France would have won easily this finale
@@zexios9685nah France would’ve still lost
@@zexios9685😂😂😂
Man, this was already in 2006. Time really flies!
Was just thinking the same
I remember that game
This might be the coolest walk off moment in sports history
He was.... He is.... And will always be a legend....
Today and forever...🙏🙏
Watching this headbutt now after 15 years, what a moment that was, he deserved a much better sendoff in his last international match. Legends go, the legacy remains forever.... Viva Zidane 👍
2:18 The best save in a WC Final ever
Watch the same Goalkeeper Buffon making a terrific save just before this match against Germany ... That was an incredible save like this one ..
@@miftahbedru543 yeah, the oppenents score only 2 goal, 1 own goal and 1 invented penalty
This aged well
Martinez save is now top bro
Ich stehe diesbezüglich voll und ganz zu Zinedine Zidane.. 👍
Materazzi will forever be remembered by the rest of the world as the man who was headbutted by Zidane for insulting his sister, not the man who won the world cup for his country.
He also scored the equaliser goal and a penalty
hmmmm...or the man who was given a phantom foul, scored 12 minutes later to equalize; and scored again in PKs ....oh and also the man who outwitted ZZ ....if think what he said to ZZ was beyond reproach, then you have never stepped on a football pitch
@GreenTea sister
You're wrong
@GreenTea yeah thats part of the slander campaign that went against materazzi.
You can see the result of it everywhere in this comment section, very few people seem to know how it went down: for the record.
*after materazzi previously grabbed his shirt during the game, he looked intensely at zidane*
Zidane: "I'll give you my shirt after the match" (a clear taunt)
Materazzi: "I'd prefer your sister"
That was how it went, he didn't insult his sister, he insulted him, implying his value is less than her's.
Extremely hard for any generation to produce someone like zidane..
2023 and still fascinated with his style
Was 7 years old in 2006, and I vividly remember this moment.
The picture on the papers the next day had the picture of zidane's infamous walk pastthe world cup.
What a time that was, as a nineties kid it is just magical to have lived through the eras of Ronaldo, ronaldinho , zidane, messi and christiano.
Eagerly waiting for 2022, be safe everyone.
I also was between 8and 9 years old back then and to this day , that's still the best tournament I've ever seen.
Safe from what? There's no covid or plandemic*
You was born in 1999 and consider yourself a "90's kid"? You were hardly born in the 90's! I think you got the definition wrong...
was 11
I won't watch world cup 2022
The most iconic moment I ever seen since ‘06. And the legendary headbutt ever.
One of the most, if not the most dramatic career’s ending in professional football’s history.
Was 7 year
I'm amazed that guy recovered to score a goal in kicks. Truly amazing. It's inspiring mind over matter stuff. I mean, his chest almost exploded!
What are you talking about? It wasn't even hard hit
@@Pytliczellosarcasm
@@Pytliczello it was. But football players are strong af. They act to be hurt because they are 🐈
did zidane get charged with assault?
The best moment in World sports.... Period!!! The triumph of human Spirit and emotion. Priceless
This World Cup was an absolute treat to all football fans… so many legends
His honor was greater than a World Cup, what a MAN !!!!!
Of course i wished Zidane did it later but i understand him to 100%
This was the first World Cup I saw with my dad as a kid. Seeing that panenka and the headbutt made me love this game. They don’t make them like they used to.
Materazzi đáng nhận là cầu thủ tồi nhất trong lịch sử,gặp tôi như zidan tôi sẽ tiễn nó về lòng đất luôn
Probably the greatest headbutt in history of soccer
02:19 amazing zidane header saved by Buffon
buffon's save won them the world cup
@@campursarimania never in the history of the tournament a whole team won the Cup. With 2 only goals conceded. An own goal and a penalty in the final that seen with VAR was inexistent.
@@althealieniz5200 Well, Spain also only conceded two goals in 2010. One with Sweden and the other with Chile
@@mauricioandres7470 that's also true but I considered that the two goals conceded by Italy haven't been scored by an opponent on a moving action, by the moment that the only one really scoring was ZZ on a penalty, wich is remarkable
Buffon still making saves in 2021, what a legend he is
Lol, all I remember about 2006 football is the headbutt. He sealed his legend in history.
I remember watching him at this world cup. The guy never gave the ball away...
To me, he is the greatest footballer, Europe has ever produced.
He's not European, he's North African with a French Nationality
@@scrollingtillmidnight7330 He was born in France, played for France and is a citizen of France.
If you want to claim him as a North African, you should have asked him to play from that North African nation or not migrate to Europe at all.
@@scrollingtillmidnight7330 We know where to find Wikipedia, so no one asked you.
@@albuquerquenm3543 It doesn't matter where he was born you cannot claim him to be of french descent when both his parents are Algerian (north african). Just because a person migrates to another country does not mean they should disregard their origins. He is not of French origin but of algerian.
@@scrollingtillmidnight7330 hé is european you fool. Born and raise in France. American for you are europeans or Americans?
The greatest midfielder ever ❤ zizou 😍
Since then, Headbutt became a lesson in all martial arts
Zidane was like a classic art, the most elegant player ever
One of the most memorable moments in modern football😛☺️
People talking about headbutt and Zizou's performance as the standouts of WC 2006, but what I find the greatest sporting moment was his paneka. The sheer audacity and frickin will to try that in the greatest sporting moment when he was the flagbearer of his team!!
…Then, he went and won 3 consecutive UE champions league with Real Madrid as a coach, tell me what he didn’t won on top of trophy of honor.
Complete sports man.
Zidane stood up for the honor of his sister. That's worth more than any world cup trophy.
The Legend love you from Pakistan 🇵🇰
2 years retired came back and took them to the final you will never see any player do that
He did everything right. Walked off like a legend
Zidane gained more respect by headbutting then winning the world cup😮
Imagine having to be remembered for eternity for taking a head straight on when you just won the world cup 🤣🤣🤣🤣
