The infamous  head butt by Zinedine Zidane

He is one of the best players the world has ever seen. When you talk about talent, calmness , team man and so on, he has every bit of it !  At club level Zidane won La Liga and the UEFA Champions League with Real Madrid, 2 Serie A league championships with Juventus and an Intercontinental Cup and a UEFA Super Cup each with both aforementioned sides. At international level, Zidane won FIFA World Cup 1998 and Euro 2000 with France. He won the FIFA World Player of the Year 3 times, and Ballon D'Or once. He was also chosen as the best player of the year in Ligue 1, in Serie A and in La Liga and was awarded the 2006 FIFA World Cup Golden Ball, and European Championship Player of the tournament during his career. Zidane retired from professional football after the 2006 World Cup. He currently holds the post of Real Madrid Director of Football. On 31 July 2012, Real Madrid announced that as soon as he completes management qualification, he will begin training to be a coach while at the same time coaching Real Madrid's youth academy.
However, his last match was abit of sad. He lost his cool and head butted Materazzi. He got into a alot of controversy post that incident.  Despite all these bad publicity , he still his one of most respected players in the world
