What Made Zizou See Red
Updated: 12:25, Tuesday July 11, 2006
A lip-reader has reportedly revealed the words which provoked Zinedine Zidane's now infamous World Cup final headbutt.
Marianne Frere claims Italian defender Marco Materazzi insulted the French captain with a stream of racial and personal abuse.
She told The Sun that Zidane was called a "son of a terrorist whore" before he lashed out and was sent off.
Reports in France have suggested it was the reference to the Algerian-born star's mother which made him blow his top.
His mother Malika had been taken to hospital seriously ill only hours before Sunday's final.
Zidane's agent Alain Miglaccio said the player had told him a 'very serious' comment had been made during the match.
Italian news agency Ansa quoted Materazzi as saying: "It is absolutely not true, I did not call him a terrorist.
"I'm ignorant. I don't even know what the word means."
Italy won the match 5-3 on penalties, with Zidane missing the shoot-out in his final match before retirement.
Star: I Did Insult Zidane
Updated: 12:41, Tuesday July 11, 2006
Marco Materazzi has admitted he insulted Zinedine Zidane prior to the French captain's headbutt in Sunday's World Cup final.
Zidane was red carded during extra-time in Berlin after butting the Italian defender in the chest.
What was said between the pair has been the subject of wild speculation since the match.
Materazzi, 32, told Gazetta dello Sport: "I held his shirt for a few seconds only, then he turned to me and talked to me, jeering.
"He looked at me with a huge arrogance and said, 'If you really want my shirt I'll give it to you afterwards'.
"I replied with an insult, that's true."
Materazzi has not elaborated on what he did say, but one report suggested he responded with: 'I'd rather take the shirt off your wife'.
He has denied, however, using a more vile insult referring to his mother or calling him a terrorist.
"It was one of those insults you're told dozens of times and that you often let fall on a pitch," Materazzi said.
"I did not call him a terrorist. I am not a cultured person and I don't even know what an Islamist terrorist is."
He added: "For me the mother is sacred, you know that."
