A statue immortalising Zidane's headbutt will be re-installed in Qatar ahead of the World Cup this year. �

It was removed in 2013 after it was criticised for encouraging violence...�

Do you agree with this?

Yes or No

a very big FAT NO..
the statue of his headbutt to wat type of message?? for fans and player to choose violence over peace??
that act was a very big low in his career, an insult to the spirit of sportsmanship and it even cost him the ballon d or award he was supposed to win after a masterclass performance against a star studded Brazil dt he made d likes of ronaldinho, delima, kaka, robinho n other stars looks like learners all tru dt game..
I dnt see any sense in errecting such statue or maybe dey just want to mock him, if you want to appreciate a football legend like zizou, dey would av used that iconic pics of his left footed volley dt won madrid the ucl title against liverkusen in 2002..
it would be a perfect piece of art..

I thought the word "iconic" is always used to define history, records or individuals in a "positive" way..
maybe I'll check up d meaning of iconic moment because I dnt see anything "iconic" in wat zizou did..

oga you be small boy, e sure me say you were not born then during that match na why you dey cap nonsense.
it was a general consensus that Cannavaro was generally the best and as Italy went on to win the work cup he deserved the Ballon'D'or
Zidane never made any impact in the world cup asides from just scoring awoof penalties that shot them to final
