Zidane is my favourite player, has been since i can remember. Serie A was on english tv in the 90s, and zidane was like no other player. Anyway, what he did was just stupid. Romanticise it all you want, but i said it was stupid at the time, and i still say it was stupid for the rest of my life. He took the bait and got played, (arguably) costing france the world cup. Your heroes are not perfect. If you believe they are then you are lying to yourself.

I was born and raised in Marseille. My cousin grew up in Zidane's neighborhood. Despite never playing for Olympique de Marseille, he's surely one the most beloved players in Marseille. We all regret that he couldn't play even one season but that's life. Cantona, who was also born and raised in Marseille, played for Marseille in the 90's but he's on the top list of favorite players by fans. He's on my list nonetheless. Zidane is an example for everyone. We know that since he made it, we all can. Maybe not in football but in life in general. He didn't give up, had a slow but improving career and will always be remembered. His temper is known among us. While being chill most of the time, you mustn't mess with his family no matter what.
Hated him after 98 final as a child then saw my fav player R9 play with him at Galacticos. After that it was nothing but RESPECT!

Zidane's story was quite interesting (Day 5 of asking for a video about Cafu)
My favorite player of all time, 1st time seeing him was in 1997 in a friendly between us (South Africa) vs France he came as a sub with Ibrahim Ba, I remember watching him mesmerizing South Africa we were leading the game 1-0 but after they came in they scored 2 quick goals, Zizou assisted both goals, I remember we all called him Zidane Zidane, I followed his career after that, I remember again WC against SA again then Saudi Arabia after that I was sold that he is the best ever, who can forget his Euro 2000 performance especially against Spain and Portugal. Zizou and Henry my best players of all time
Finally a video that football world deserved. The real GOAT football genius
14:19 "kung-fu kicking a fan..." That one was crazy!!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 I bet it was a headline in most of football newspapers back then.

Zidane and Messi are on another level as they peaked for a long time and were both pure 10s with Messi shifting between RW and F9 according to team. They both has the ability to control the tempo of matches and score a bucketload of goals. Didn't get to watch Pele, Maradona and Cryuff so no idea on them.

Honestly, Messi is nothing like Zidane: the elegance, the visionary passing, the physical strength (Zidane is a fairly tall guy), a ridiculously great first touch and leadership skill (you became encouraged when playing with him on your side). Messi is great dribbler but is not comparable to Zidane in the sense that he never carried a mediocre team to glory as Zidane and Maradona did in their times. 90's football was magical when putting it against the matches today (more spread of great players instead of them being at one club)
You make these football stories sound absolutely beautiful and inspiring man. Love your stuff ❤👏

This Video wow! Zidance was truly different.
There used to be a roundabout of Europe's top leagues back in the day on Eurosport every Monday night. That's when I first saw Zidane when he was playing for Bordeaux against Betis in Europe. I distinctly remember him smashing a volley left-footed from about 50 yards out straight into the goal.

I remember a long time ago back in Manchester hearing a story of how Cantona begged Ferguson to sign him, so United made an enquiry and said he'd be on RW mostly, so Zidane said no and United signed Poborsky instead...
The Legend ❤
Not many people realise that Zidane has scored the BEST GOAL EVER BOTH IN CLUB & INTERNATIONAL FOOTBALL. For a goal to be of real value it also has to mean something, it does not have to be just elegant. Because who cares about a friendly match ? Everyone tries staff in those. UCL Final 2002: Other than the insane beauty of this shot, it is the goal that gave Real Madrid the cup WC Final 2006: In the actual final, he stepped up to hit a penalty against the legendary Buffon... and humilitated like a rookie with the most insanely technical and perfect penalty kick ever
My favourite player ever. So unique. He really did have four hands and no feet. Just poetry in motion.
Thanks for the historical footage of a young Yazid, never knew this was his name. Truly a rough diamond that needed polishing, thank God that Monsieur Varraud crossed paths with him for the 2nd time.
My GOAT. Used to play football and fell in love with it when I was accidentally watching the guy at the '98 WC ❤
My hero!! I met him when he came to South Africa in 2009 and I was shocked to shake his hand and take a pic with him. I moulded my game after him. The greatest of all time
Thank You for all Stories!!!
He was my inspiration when I was a kid and wanted to be a striker but had better vision and passes than anyone, sad with my 7 shirt instead of the 10. My trainer showed me him and that where I understood it's a team game and that I can be good as well. Since then he's been my favorite player, his way of playing is second to none, what a Goat.

Fun Fact : Cruyff claimed he verbally agreed a deal with Zidane in 1996, but pulled the plug on the move when the Catalans sacked him. At that time he was playing for Bordeaux Imagine that pairing of Romario and Zidane, also in the future with Figo, Prime Ronaldo, Stoichkov
Stan man should watch this
Awesome video
There is always a debate on who is the GOAT and the usual suspects always come up but when you think of it in terms of position, nobody is close to Zidane. He was the ultimate goalscoring playmaker. It was like he could see a few seconds into the future and slow down time. He did stuff with his weak foot that most players can't do with their strong foot. Technique, magnifique.
first time i saw zidane play when Luis Fernandez took over AS Cannes as coach when they were near bottom league 2 ,one of the first match they play under Luis fernandez was on TV and they were so good, plenty of young player, by the end of the season they won the league
Brilliant storytelling!

Back then it was totally different. We had no internet etc. It was very very rare to see French football(unless you lived in France) on TV.... It was rare to see any foreign football other than English and Italian(huge back then) football. So Zidane was relatively unknown even tho he had done well in Europe. I remember in the build up to Euro 96 there was a lot of hype about him as Juve had just signed him. People were very excited to see him. To see how good he was. He was tipped at that stage to be a great player. He actually flopped during those Euros. People were expecting more. However he then went on to show everyone what a beautiful footballer he was at Juve, Real and for France. A total footballing legend.
Zidane and R9 are on the same level, and both are way beyond Ronaldinho. I seriously cannot believe people think Ronaldinho was on the same level as those two. Ronaldinho was flashy but he'd never dribbled like R9 and never understood the game like Zidane.
I like him the most cause he was a big stage player, Maybe he didn't score the amount the Goals like any other Player but when big tournaments came like FIFA He was a different Beast. His performance in 1998 and 2006 vs Brazil was 🔥🔥

In Sweden we have this iconic ex-footballer named Johnny Ekström, famous for his not too overly bright quotes. 1992 he played in Cannes with Zizou and told a footballer friend and ex teammate (Glenn Strömberg) over the phone "We have this 17 year old youngster here that everyone talks about. He do sole trix and stuff. His name is Zidane and I doubt he will be anything" lol.
