Zidane Apologies

'Zidane apologies.'

According to a news report, Zidane apologies to the children the head butt incidence that shocked the whole world, but not his fans.

He said he was provoked by the Italian defender Marco Materazzi.

The Zinedine Zidane mystery is not quite solved yet.

In his first, highly awaited comments since the World Cup final, the French soccer star only partly explained what caused him to react in fury and head-butt an Italian opponent: repeated harsh insults about his mother and sister.

But Zidane didn't go into specifics about what Marco Materazzi said. Materazzi swears he never insulted Zidane's mother. And FIFA is still investigating.

Relaxed and soft-spoken, Zidane repeatedly apologized to fans -- especially to children -- in several interviews late Wednesday.

"Above all, I'm human," he said.

The fourth Referee claimed he saw the incidence that took place ten minutes before whistle, denied using video tape replay as evidence , to advice head referee to red carded Zidane. If he really saw the whole incidence taking place, he should have noticed the shirt pulling, nipple twisting by Marco Matera
zzi on Zidane, a yellow card at least should be given. Why just penalised one side ?
