Impressive video... Here is Zidane sacrificing his soccer god status and the World Cup to "answer" the Italian player's racist insults. At the individual level, headbutt is a pretty good response to racism, and I praise Zidane for putting his honour - his humanity - higher than a golden cup.

I am not into soccer, but to call Zidane's action a disgrace and so on... is a bit over the top when every weekend you see high tackles, spear tackles, brawls etc... And I agree he made the right decision, the game has to come second under the circumstances.
