For real right? Needless to say Zinedine Zidane's drama staged at the 110th minute during 2006 World Cup final with Italy tainted his international career. We might have gotten over the news a long time ago but it made an indelible impression on Algerian-born artist Adel Abdessemed.
He erected and unveiled the five-metre high bronze statue outside the Pompidou museum in Paris.
I wish I could capture Zidane's reaction on this. 😀 But really, is this an honour?
This great statue remind us in world cup final 2006. Zidane perform excellently along the tournament. But in the final, zidane headbutt to materazzi made him sent off by the referee. Italy won the 4th world cup and France lose in the final.
