An ultimate match as Italy beats france in world cup finals. Too bad for France as its one man army Zizou "earned" his red card by hitting materazzi. Bad exit for a great player.
The italians played as a team. Their defence was superb. France had little chances against them except in the penalty which resulted in the goal for them.
Meanwhile Materazzi of italy converted an awesome corner kick from Pirlo into a goal. This was the blow to france who were slacking after the first goal.
The second half saw an inspired attack by france but useless against the italian wall of defenders. With no team scoring the second goal in 90 mins, the game goes into extra time.
This was when some words were exchanged between Zidane and Materazzi.Zidane charged like a bull torwards Materazzi hitting him in the chest, resulting in red card for Zizou.
With no goals in overtime, penalty shootout came into play and the the side with better nerves, in this case Italy won the match by 5-3 penalty shootout.
All in all, One of the greatest matches in world cup history with this becoming the second finals to be decided in penalty.
Great game Azzuri, Better luck next time Les Blues and Good Bye Zizou..

One of the best matches in WC history? WTF?
Don't talk about football, please.
BYE
chillout haters.. You dont own football.. not yet.
It was a great match, no doubt abt it! and the Zidane incident was not required, sad ending for a great player..Italy got its just rewards for playing together as a team with spirit, inspite of the trouble back home. They deserved to win.
WTF! Seriously WTF!
Italy only won because Materrazzi was a openly racist SOB. Period.

Maybe, Materrazzi was wrong, but Zidane should have kept his cool. At that level of profession, these things are pretty common, Marco sledged and sledged properly. Anyway, thats not the reason for Italy winning. They woin because they deserved it. Even if Zidane was there, he couldn't have saved the game because only Trezeguet missed it!
The problem with people is that they view the whole finals match and probably the series based on few singular acts. Why not see the way italians defended or even scored an excellent goal. Why not see the way they kept their cool in penalty shootouts??
For me, Zidane "is" a great player. But as many of his fans may describe him, he is not the "god" of football. There were,are and will be better players than him. But being a great plyer, he should have shown his genius in making goals, whatever the insult.
Materrazzi needs to improve his conduct on the field too. Ideally speaking, he should have been given a yellow card. As Vikas says, it was Trezeguet who missed the goal. The unfortunate incident didnt have any direct influence on the result.
hey ambar di all those lip readers have zoom vision to lip read what materrazi was telling zidane. why have you become such a minority ass licking secularist?
