How to relieve a sporting headache effectively!

I think most of us remember that game. That was a nasty thing to do from Zidane but lets be honest, he fell like a fly. There was no real hit, but as proven several times before, football players are good actors. Especially the players from South Europe.
I loved to see that live
Although, I don't remember, why did he hit him actually?
They squared up and I believe the Italian player called Zidane a "French pr**k" in Italian. Therefore, Zidane reacted in the way he did. That's what the official report on the situation from FIFA said, anyway. That might not actually be true.
This has to be one of the most famous Red Cards i've ever seen. I wonder if that actually hurt? I mean the other player played it off a bit, but it looks like it might have hurt a little bit.
Must of felt like a small flick in the chest. It couldn't of hurt. He didn't actually make much contact, although, in full speed, it looked pretty bad. However, watch closely, Zidane does kind of pull back before actually making contact with the player.
I believe that Zidane later claimed that the other guy had insulted his mother and he snapped. I think he ended up apologizing to his teammates but not to the guy he headbutted. Classic.
Saw that live too. One of the most memorable ones. I still remember all the games that came out after that 
I always hated Italy, and after that i do it even more. They are disgusting, pathetic trash people, like Materazzi. He cursed and talk bad about Zidane's family the entire match, and then fall like a girl. What a piece of trash.
Players should be fitted with mic's so we can all here the slur they chat to each other. Maybe they would clean up the language - maybe it would be something worth paying PPV for lol
Are you sure?
I think it was something related to Zidane in a personal way.
Nobody really knows but the general feeling or rumor is his mother was brought into it.
I agree and I think most of us would react the same way he did in that situation.
:biggthumpup: ZIDANEEE!!!
Here's why. It was on the first page of the thread.
Oh haha thanks. Thats crazy! I wish i would have seen that while watching.
