because he was just to old. also he was banned for a long time.

No that's not the reason,zidane was only 29 then !

All years he played soccer he was simply a legend and he wanned to retire the same way..materazzi told him sth he wasn't happy to hear who people say it was cussing mulims and arabs so he had to hit him that he's both a muslim and an arab ..

he took a red card,and since he began his career with one,he wanned to end it with one 2 !!

I really adore this man..he's the only player from madrid team who i love ..
