Don’t quite know what to make of this, whether its supposed to be funny, ironic, sad, or serious, but Algerian born artist Adel Abdessemed has created a statue of the moment Zinedine Zidane headbutted Marco Materazzi during the 2006 world cup final.
Its sad to think that Zidane has been remembered in this way – to me, he has been the most amazing footballer I’ve ever seen, he was simply a joy to watch and I wish he was still playing now. I don’t think he should be remembered for this moment of madness, but it seems now that at the Centre Pompidou museum in Paris they have decided to remember this occasion.
