Sad thing about it is throughout Europe on everyother street corner or patch of grass where young kids play football and chanted his name for the past few weeks.
Last night they witnessed their hero Zidane bury his head into another player.
Somewhere, some mother today will have to bring her child to an A&E department of a hospital to get stitches in her son's face, result of a head butt. He set no example to his young followers and fans. Thought a professional footballer of his rank would be advised how to deal with abuse from players and fans alike.
On reflection it was a poor World Cup with players of most nations spending more time prior to the tourement getting their dive right, than actual footballing skills.
