If you ask me, the infamous headbutt in the World Cup finale was the highlight (or lowlight) of the tournament. First of all, I'm American, so soccer puts me right to sleep. Secondly, the incident was the height of melodrama. What's not to like about that? In this video, it looks like the Italian player tweaked the French guy's nipple before getting the smackdown.
The French media is also reporting that Marco Materazzi called Zinedine Zidane a "dirty terrorist" prior to the Frenchman's red card in Sunday's World Cup final, while Materazzi has denied the accusation. I like the tweaked nipple theory better. Watch and judge for yourself.

But you still gotta love that the Italians won. I mean...what do the French know about "the lessor football", anyway? (Not that I'm a huge fan of "the greater football", but you take my meaning.)
Italia!
Hoenstly, Kvatch, i didn't care who won. i just wanted to see something good. and when Zidane dropped that guy, i thought, "finally, after 90 minutes, something juicy!"
There definately seemed to be some words exchanged, otherwise there was a lot of time between the nipple tweek and the retaliation.
No I think it was more than a tweeked nipple. The guy was talking trash I think.
Onanite
Italians are so dramatic.
It doesn't matter what prompted Zidane to attack the Italian--nothing justified that head-butt, which only brought humiliation on Zidane and the French team.
Aren't you lucky to get that "comment" from "Zidane?"
