Never should i forget this hot summer of 2006. Two European countries was ready to face each other. France against Italy. I was in font of France as i was Zinedine Zidane's fan for many years through his fantastic career in Juventus and Real Madrid. 

All was set in order to watch the fist final of a World Cup tournament ever in my life. I remember that we took place in the couch me, my father and my brother. My mother was taking care of food that night and she was making some delicious apetites that would be our company during the 90' of this final.

And then the referee flows the whistle...

The game had just started. I was so anxious who would be the winner and which team will celebrate the trophy. My dream last night was to be the one waving his hands in the air holding the beautiful World cup trophy. 

But i wasn't the one playing that night. My favorite player Zidane was in the field trying to do his best and win the game. 

Then, the bad moment came. Materazzi and Zidane exchanged some bad words leading the latest hitting Materazzi with a headbutt. This was the last moment of Zidane's minutes in the green field. He got a red card and he left the field.

After this situation, i had no interest to see the entire game.  I just stayed at my placed and kept my emotions inside me, because i didn't want my father to understand that i was sad.

In the end, Italy won the game and eventually the trophy, This event would be forever in my memory because of what happened to my idol, Zinedine Zidane. My emotions would never fade for this player even that he was misbehaved in a situation like that. 

His behavior could be criticized because he made a bad decision but none can ignore his perfect career!
