I'd very much like to have an accurate transcript of the verbal exchange leading up to Zidane's headbutt and subsequent red-carding.
I suggest that football is sick, and badly in need of a review of the rules, much like NHL hockey a couple years ago. A sad spectacle. At least it won't happen again for another 4 years.
The game I just watched did not justify the world-wide fascination and hype. Without some major re-work, its not worth watching. FIFA has a lot of work to do.
