You hear he's getting his Golden Ball taken away?
Taking care of business?
He let another player goad him into taking a ridiculous, costly penalty, and got his ass kicked off the field.
This is Italy defender Marco Materazzi, the guy Zidane headbutted. Oh, he looks hurt, doesn't he? Yeah, Zidane really hurt him. Look at him wince as he celebrates winning the
fucking World Cup.
The only business Zidane took care of was disgracing himself, and turning his last few moments on the world stage as a premier soccer player into an embarrassing farce.
Well done.
I hope every minor-league coach around the world takes two pics -- one of Zidane headbutting, and the one of Materazzi celebrating the victory -- and displays them while making it clear to the kids: Taking care of business is letting the refs enforce the rules, and the players play. Don't ever hand the other team a break.
And Zidane did just that.
