"WHY TODAY I WEAR MY ZIDANE JERSEY"!!

[avowedly-agnostic]

[quote = Spaniard Kamal] the italian was holding Zidane's shirt, and Zidane said, ironically, to him: If you want my shirt so much, just wait for the end of the match and I'll give it to you. [/quote]

lol @ Kamal

Classic! But I wish you'd stop making things up.

[Kamal35]

That's what some Italian press said. The Spanish press is quoting the sources about the 'algerian shit', 'your mother is a terrorist', etc...

madmac

he was probably frustrated because he was fouled atleast six times before the incident and the ref didn't call them and the gypsy's comments were the last straw that sent him over the edge.

all in all this world cup final will be remembered for not the one that the italians won but the game that zidane headbutted mazzerati or matarezzi or however you spell his name.

Notice the way Kamal says "some Italian press" thus making confirmation of his source impossible. Ahh... those Spaniards are masters of fabricating stories. Nice little twist there Kamal. Couldn't have cracked a funnier joke out of it myself.

Agnostic: From Spanish newspaper 'El Mundo'. I'll try to translate the most interesting paragraphs.



EL ITALIANO RECONOCE QUE SÍ LE INSULTÓ
(The italian recognizes that he did insult him)
Materazzi: 'Zidane fue muy arrogante'
Materazzi: Zidane was really arrogant


ELMUNDO.ES
MADRID.- Mientras Zidane permanece en silencio tras su expulsión en la final de la Copa del Mundo, Materazzi, el agredido por el ex jugador del Real Madrid, ha reconocido al diario italiano 'La Gazzetta dello Sport' que sí insultó al capitán francés porque su actitud le pareció arrogante.

"Le agarré de la camiseta sólo durante unos segundos. Se giró hacia mí, me miró de arriba abajo y me habló con arrogancia", explicó el italiano en el diario milanés. Según el defensa, Zidane le dijo: "Si tanto quieres mi camiseta, después te la doy". La respuesta del central del Inter fue un insulto.

(Materazzi: "I grabbed his shirt only for a few seconds. He turned back towards me, looked at me up and down y spoke to we with arrogance"... Acording to the Italian, Zidane told him: "If you want me shirt so much, I'll give it to you later". The answer of the Inter player was a insult)


Sobre si la palabra que irritó a Zidane iba a dirigida a su hermana, como se ha escrito en distintos medios, Materazzi no aclara demasiado: "Fue un insulto de esos que se dicen decenas de veces y que se nos escapan en el terreno de juego". Pero eso de llamarle terrorista, como también se ha publicado, no lo acepta.


(About if the words that he hit a nerve of Zidane were addressed to her sisters, as it has been published in different media, Materazzi is not very clear: "It was one of those insults that you say so many times and that, sometimes, we say in the playing-field". But he rejects that he could call him a terrorist).

"Lo que es seguro es que no le llamé terrorista. Yo no soy culto y no sé bien qué es un terrorista islamista. Mi única terrorista es ella", dijo durante la entrevista miestras señalaba a su hija de diez años, dormida en el avión que trasladó a la selección italiana hasta de vuelta a Roma.

("For sure I didn't call him a terrorist. I'm not very culturized and I don't know what a islamist terrorist is. My only terrorist is her", he said during the interview while he was pointing his finger towards his 10 years old daughter, asleep in the plane that brought the Italian team back to Rome.)

Materazzi, también negó cualquier referencia hacia la madre de 'Zizou'. "Para mí, la mamá es sagrada".

Materazzi also denied any reference about Zizou's mother. "For me, the mamma is sacred".

lool @ Kamal

Oh I love this Spanish comrade. He knows damn well that I can't speak a word of spanish with the exception of "hasta la victora siempre" of which I picked up whilst reading Che's biography. So he picks out any random Daily and makes it out as if Zidane and the Italian exchanged those words.

Good one Kamal! I tell you that joke of yours will stay with me for a while to come.

[Xplosive]

If someone called your dying mother a "terrorist whore" then you would kill him. This goes for all of you. What he did is justifiable...

Are you a fan of Che Guevara? I met her daughter Aleida some years ago here in my city. She's a nice woman, although I think a little bit biased by the Castro regime. He told me that they call Castro 'Tío Fídel' (Uncle Fidel) at home.

She loves the poetry of Federico García Lorca.

About the Materazzi/Zidane issue: all what I posted there is more o less a literal transcription of what 'some' media are reporting and what Materazzi said. Look for yourself in Google with 'Materazzi denies' and you'll find out some of his words.

Anyway, I'm not very interesting on football. What I really love is Formula 1.

And now we have two Spanish pilots in Formula 1:

Fernando Alonso, the 2005 champion, on Renault
Pedro Martínez de la Rosa, as second pilot on Mercedes McLaren.

Ain't it great?

I was just pulling your leg about the Zidane story. But wow, surprised to hear that you've met with Che's daughter. I have a picture of her of while she was a toddler. I'm not surprised at all that she enjoys poetry; I know that Che and Hilda (his first wife) also liked poems.

I agree that castro ought to democratise Cuba, and hold elections, but there's no doubting of how far Cuba has come , and the achivements of the Cuban revolution since 1959. But long live Tio Fidel and the Cuban revolution.

Long live the memory of our comrade and ardent revolutionary Ernesto Che Guevara.

And long live our Spaniard comrade Kamal who's got a crush on Che's daughter.

Hasta la victoria siempre!

oh, Zidan, poor guy, he really worked hard for that wrecked team of his.
