Many Are Called. Few Succeed. Manchester United: Beyond the Promised Land

Zidane's Moment Of Madness - Explained

Check out exclusive footage with an awesome camera angle of the incident in the video above. Here's what ive gathered from various sources and countless lip reading experts:

Materazzi was seen to hold Zidane's shirt on the edge of the penalty box in extra-time at which point Zidane said

"if you want my shirt so bad you can have it"

Materazzi responded

"I dont want your shirt you m***** f*****. you're a f****** old man"

As they jog away Zidane is seen to laugh at this and it is unclear how he responded due to him having his back to the TV camera

Materazzi then hits a volley of abuse

"you should've quit 2 years ago, you're a f****** has-been"

"m***** f*****! your mum is a f****** muslim terrorist and you are to,

f*** you old man f*** you"

"old man, this arena is not for you anymore m***** f*****"

Zidane carries on jogging away

Materazzi adds...

"you are only good enough for Liverpool now" It's at this very point Zidane turned and head-butted him.

Well i guess it all makes sense now, dont it? Materazzi used the mother of all insults on a very unexpecting Zidane. I totally forgive zidane now, anyone in his/her right mind would have reacted the same way.

Well on a slightly more serious note, if Materazzi did indeed say that, he's a fucking legend in my book! T.I.O.T's salutes the living legend himself, Marco Materazzi.
