sad to see the worlds player of the year (3 times), go out like that.
Materazzi must have said something preety bad to piss him out, Zidane is a class act but he lost it there.

Zidane must have been extra pissed off because he missed header just minutes before this happened.

French soccer star Zinedine Zidane, who was thrown out of the World Cup's championship game in overtime for head butting an Italian opponent, returned to France Monday.
You might expect that he'd be greeted with boos, or condemned for contributing to his country's heartbreaking penalty-kick defeat. Not quite. Instead, Zidane received an invitation to join President Jacques Chirac for lunch at the Elysee Palace.
Chirac expressed the "admiration and affection of the whole nation" for Zidane, calling him "a man of the heart, of commitment, of conviction, and that's why France admires and loves you."
