but you cant deny the fact that the better team won on the night. I got lucky (for once)! I would dispute that, if only because of the headbutt.

PARIS, July 10 (Reuters) - France captain Zinedine Zidane was apparently called a "dirty terrorist" by Marco Materazzi before he head-butted the Italy defender in Sunday's World Cup final, the anti-racism group SOS Racism said on Monday.
"According to several very well informed sources from the world of football, it would seem that the Italian player Marco Materazzi called Zinedine Zidane a 'dirty terrorist'," SOS Racism said in a statement.
Zidane, the son of Algerian immigrants, was shown a red card after the incident and Italy went on to win on penalties after the match was tied 1-1 following extra time.
The Paris-based group called for an inquiry and said world soccer's governing body FIFA had recently toughened sanctions against racism.
"It's for this reason that SOS Racism asks in a determined fashion for FIFA to shed light on this altercation and that sanctions laid out in the official rules be applied should this be the case," SOS Racism said.
Neither Zidane nor Materazzi have spoken in public about what had passed between them before the incident. French television reported that Zidane would talk about the incident "in the coming days".

to be fair, he could have hit him in the face which would've been a much more serious injury... at least he controlled his rage to some extent and went out in a bit of a dramatic way!

i gotta say the cheats got to the final, the italians should never have got past the aussies but for a totti dirty foul in the lst minute, it seems bad to make a strong yet legal tackle, but fine to make a melodrama over any slight touch, several of the more memorable moments of the entire competition were some of the best tackles i've ever seen being disallowed, but that being said, rather the italians than the french, who just think everything should be given to them.
