Why did Zidane headbutt Italian defender in 2006 WC final?
Ex-France captain Zinedine Zidane was sent off for headbutting Italian defender Marco  Materazzi in extra time of the 2006 FIFA World Cup final, which was his farewell match. Materazzi later revealed he had abused Zidane saying, "I prefer the whore that is your sister," which provoked the Frenchman. Zidane later apologised for his behaviour but said he didn't "regret it".
