Materazzi insulted Zidane's sister. Zidane head-butted Materazzi. FIFA fined the both of them and banned them from a couple of games, but since Zidane had already retired from football, he opted to do community service instead.

Zendane still got a lot to give to football. in my own opinion he is the second best player in the history of football. I guess if he plays only one more season after the word cup I'll be really happy.\n\nnote: his performance in this season isn't so great because the whole team isn't doing good and he had a couple of injuries, so it's not his fault.\n\nby the way if u saw his match this season against sevilla and a couple of matches after it u'll know who Zidane is, thats only very little part if what he have.

Agree with u. But zidane is now gone. So maybe midfield is not really best for france.

According to Anne Rapin "Something quite extraordinary happened on the evening of Sunday, July 12, 1998: France, playing at home against the current title holders, Brazil, won the World Cup. By three goals to nil. An event with unexpected national and international repercussions... "\n\nHope this is what you were looking for...

Generally he is not in a form . But he remains one of the top players, don't we worry , he is gonna be all right, it was probably exhausting his training programme for the world cup!!!!

Stupid Van Basten kicked him out of the netherland\n\nlook\n\nThere were also calls for Van Basten to call up Dennis Bergkamp who had retired from the national team 6 years earlier for a final hurrah as he was retiring that season. Van Basten then revealed to the media that he never intended to do so despite Bergkamp's own willingness and the national team's lack of a playmaker.\n\nAs a coach, he soon established himself as a man of strong principles. Van Basten famously dropped superstars like Clarence Seedorf, Patrick Kluivert, Edgar Davids and Roy Makaay, benched Mark van Bommel, because all five were either past their prime, injured, or constantly underachieving. and even van nistelrooy now

Zinedin Zidane has been top player for the FRENCH team and for Real, Madrid and will retire after the World Cup. He has never played on the German team

Actually, that game finished 3-0. And If Brazil's minister donated millions to France, then Brazil would have won. That is all a lie spread because nobody expected Brazil to lose so badly. The truth of the matter is that France dominated, and deserved to win thanks to Zidane.

France is far from their magical best of 1998.After getting goalless in 2002,they failed to win the opening 2 matches in 2006.Zidane is banned for last game and that can prove doom for France.I think its all over for them

After winning 2 French League Title (02-03) in Lyon he chooses to leave for Italy and the terrific Inter Milano.\nHe did not play much (9 games) in Milano and was traded the following year in Spain at the Real Sociedad. \nWith 17 games during the last two years, Jeremie Brechet is coming back and wants to make the cut for the world cup.

A lot of factors go into them being eliminated. They were in a tough group, the team and coach did not do a good job, and some of the bad calls the the referees made. \n\nThe team will come back strong for the next World Cup.

I have the greatest respect for Zidane. I have closely monitored his game and in my opinion he is not only a good football player, but also a gentleman. I applaude his idea to retire when the ovation is loudest. Not every football player does that. If not for him France probably would not have qualified for the world cup. He is also the type of player that gives his best whether during club or national engagement. He takes his profession seriously and the world sure has a lot to learn from such an icon.

My best guess is that they are either first or second generation immigrants. France has solid players. But their play in this World Cup is less than impressive for some reason. I hope to see more out of Henry offensively. And as for Zidane, unfortunatley the last game might have been his last World Cup game for good. His play has been average.

I remember Kluivert's header as the day of yesterday. Tied it in the last minute. But then Holland lost on penalty kicks... again...  for bonus points: Ronaldo scored the first goal right after half-time; Kluivert got a red card in the first game of the tournament; and who can forget the brilliant goal from Bergkamp against Argentina that got Holland in the semi-finals in the first place!

The world cup 2006 Golden ball is with the Golden player,Zizou.\nCannavaro got the European Golden ball for Europe's best player not FIFA 's golden ball.

Well first of all, i like brazil and ronaldo.  He is definitly not fat, i dont know what the haters are talking about, but he seemed a bit out of shape. I am sure he will be fine, he was getting over a sinus problem, and he had blisters. I think he rushed himself to get onto the field to play, even if he wasn't 100% fit. He will be fine however and come back strong. He only needs 3 more goals to be the number one scorer in world cup history. As this is likely his last tournament, he isn't going to let that chance get away. Hopefully he can get back to form and come out with a good showing in the next game, or he may be permantly replaced by Robinho.

now the season has changed all the team is not dependent on one player.\nbut there is superstars in each teambecause of that you cant say the team won because of him.\nremember ronaldhino in brazil last time he was not a superstar but because of him brazil won the cup.\nnow ofcourse zidane is a best player and a superstar but because of this you can not expect that he would lead his team to champions of 2006.
