Despite his immaculate image with the French public,
Zinedine Zidane has always been driven by a well -tempered temperament. The 14 red cards received in career by this offensive genius prove it, as is the last image of his immense career in the French team, this famous shot of a bouncing in Marco Materazzi which earned him an expulsion in the final of the Cup of the 2006 against Italy.
This distant episode remains a scar for the French football icon. If water has flowed under the bridges almost 20 years after the facts, the main interested party lived very badly on the days that followed this fact of play that has become mythical in the history of the Blues.
“He had threatening remarks that I did not tolerate”
Asked about his relationship with Zinedine Zidane, Pierre Ménès made strong revelations about his YouTube channel. “”
Sporting level, he is the best French player in history, it is undeniable, first wanted to recall Ménès. After it is true that I never hung with man. After his expulsion at the 2006 World Cup, M6 sent us to make an “complement of investigation” in Berlin on the expulsion of Zidane. I had dug on the phone a few days before who had said to me: “Go Mollo with Zidane, it is not good ».
“A few days later he (Zidane) calls me, and said to me:” The sluts you told in Berlin … “, continued Ménès. And there I am a little surprised and I said to him: “You saw the show” and he said to me: “No, I was repeated to me”. If it is an illiterate who repeated it to you I can do nothing for you. I said to him: “Look at it and remind me”. And there he had threatening remarks that I did not tolerate. Humanly, he doesn't interest me much. Which does nothing to the admiration I can have for him as a player … “ concluded the journalist. An outing explaining why the former columnist of the Canal Football Club has always refused to praise Zizou.
