Materazzi kept on insulting Zidane, his mother and sister. After the insults Zidane started walking away but suddenly turned back and the rest... you know!! I think this type of behaviour shouldn’t be allowed in any sport, because it causes many things. One affect these fights have are that they can hurt the player’s emotion leading into lack of focus. Also, these fights usually get physical which leads the player into an injury. Although, sometimes you just can’t handle it and you do something which you don’t realise you are doing!! Usually the players in the argument get sent out of the game which means the team can lose! This is exactly what happened to Zidane, and since he was the best player the team lost because he wasn’t there. It is really hard to ignore insults but if you are in the FINALS you should try harder, which Zidane failed to do. There are ways how you can stop this type of behaviour (physiologically), and some of them are: 1. If a player is insulting/ pushing, they should just ignore them as much as they can. They should believe what ever the other is saying/ doing is nothing. 2. All sports event are important, and the players know any violence or fighting can result into them losing. So, they should always finish the game and then do what ever they want after! 3. If the players are getting into a fight, they should think about the children who look up to them. Later, they will (maybe) realise what they are doing. 4. All players should take an oath to not fight during the match, other wise the whole team will be disqualified. 5. The opposing team members should not talk or interact with each other, so there is no way they can fight. Also, points 1, 2, 3 and 5 should be followed in our community (clubs, kids playing for fun), as people do anything which is done on T.V. If the professional players think violence isn't the answer to anything, so will the people who are playing it for FUN! The incident happened on the 9 July 2006. Who did it involve? REPORTING PROJECT Zinedine Zidane headbutted Marco Materazzi on the chest! Where did it happen? What is the incedent? Why did it happen? ******************************************** When did it happen? How did it happen? BIBLIOGRAPHY: Reflection The fight was between French captain Zinedine Zidane and Italian player Marco Materazzi th This happened in the 2006 FIFA World Cup final in a stadium in Berlin, called Olympiastadion. Zinedine Zidane and Marco Materazzi The incident happened because, Zidane was angry and fed up. And as all of you would do if you were insulted, you would fight back. Although, that wasn't what he wanted to do, because before he tried to walk away. However, I think he couldn't take it anymore and did the act! By: Evangel
