Guys...
This incident just forced us to remember that Zidane never was that elegant player...
1998 The first round World Cup match against Saudi Arabia saw Zidane's worst side come out as he stamped on Saudi captain Fuad Amin in the 70th minute and was immediately sent-off. He returned from a two match suspension and ultimately redeemed himself with two goals in the 3-0 win in the final over Brazil.
2000 Zidane had already been sent off for Juventus in the Champions League against Deportivo La Coruna in September but it was against Hamburg in October that he really saw red. He received his second successive red card of that competition when he head butted Jochen Kientz while they fought on the ground. He received a five match ban for that indiscretion.
So, no justification for the man...
He had great skills and nobody can argue about that, but we can't deny also that some cables in his head are turning on and off all the time during his matches...
