I would assume Materazzi, though I don't know enough about previous
incidents of bullying and instigation to be able to cite them all to
you. I do know about some horrible tackles, and three red cards while
he was in Everton. Dirty players like Materazzi should be punished
wherever there is evidence for their wrongdoing.

But that doesn't make Zidane's self-serving attitude and implicit claim
that his behaviour was OK correct or acceptable.

I am sorry, I think the Guardian guy has it right this time.

This is where this discussion suffers from the MM Side Syndrome. They try
to discuss Zidane, when most Zidane Siders never said Zidane's didn't get
what he deserved according to the rules of the game.
