Materazzi Confessed The Reason Zidane Attacked Him
By Jill Woods
I think almost everybody can remember the incredible end that Zinedine Zidane had at the World Cup which took place this year in Germany, when the player attacked Marcos Materazzi, after being insulted.
This fact caused Materazzi a two-match ban, while Zidane had a penalty of three games and fine.
But Materazzi decided to break the silence and inform about the incident, declaring what exactly he said to the famous player.
Apparently, the main subject was Zinedine's sister and not his mother as he said. According to Materazzi he was fighting on the field as all the players do tugging Zinedine's shirt, and this one said "if you want my shirt I will give it to you", which Materazzi answered: "I prefer your sister".
Materazzi recognizes is not
a nice thing to say but he added that normally the players say worse things than that.
On the other hand, Zidane never expressed what the reason of his reaction was; he only said that it was very personal regarding his mother and sister.
The French player is retired from football; actually it was the last match of his career which did not have a happy ending after all, but his behavior demonstrated how things can get when somebody bothers with his family, even in such an important moment as his withdraw.
