Zidane and Materazzi causes gives hint against Neymar: "Hail the Cross"

Defender recalls late 2006 and guarantees: "I would do anything again." Italian still defends the Brazilian goalkeeper Julio Cesar, his former teammate Inter Milan                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                              Olympic Stadium packed, France and Italy empatavam by one goal in the final of the 2006 World Cup until the sixth minute of extra something strange, unprecedented, and for some time, incomprehensible happens on the field. The best French player, one of the best in football history, sees a violent headbutt to the chest of an Italian defender. Zidane sentenciava thus its final and also the France team, which lost its specialist penalty shoot-out.

Italy, as we know, won the match by hitting all the penalties of the series. But the one responsible for all this, the man the Italians call hero of Berlin and the French termed a villain, was Marco Materazzi .The former defender scored the equalizer of Italy, led to the expulsion of Zidane, responding to French that he "would rather go out with your sister," after the French provoke wondering why he was pulling his shirt and to stick with it had to wait until the end of the game. The match ended there for Zidane, Materazzi went to that coolly converted a decisive shootout. Eight years later, the move marked an end of the World Cup is still famous and now yielded up a statue, but Materazzi does not accept the villain of this story and ensures that everything would again. -. Whenever I go home I see the cup there, remember I scored two goals and won the World That is what counts .. If things had gone the same way, I probably would do everything the same way, because I'm not a robot Guilt is never just one person to be a fight, the two had guilt -. said former world champion defender Italy in 2006, in an interview with GloboEsporte.com in Perugia. 's controversial bid keeps giving that talk, but Marco Materazzi, away from lawns, about three years ago, lives a day to day relaxed. Missing football and touch with the fans, but do not think about venturing into a coaching career blindly. After winning the World Cup, one Champions League and a World at Inter Milan, the former defender hung the boot, but wasted no time and signed up for a course for coaches in the Italian Football Federation, one of the most reputable for the profession in Europe.

Concluded last year and accept with "honor", a proposal to sit next to on the bench Mourinho's Chelsea. Mou is indeed a kind of god to Materazzi. The Italian also explained idolatry by the Portuguese during the interview. But while this is not enough time to train, Materazzi runs his own sports shop in Perugia. And it was in "Space 23" - the number he wore at Inter Milan - who received the report from GloboEsporte.com. Former world champion takes this much free time to be with their two children, playing soccer with friends and now watch the matches of the World Cup. - That blow in Neymar Modric was nothing, for God's sake - explained Materazzi to friends, working in his shop a day after Brazil vs Croatia. A fault which is certainly nothing aggressive to a combative former defender Materazzi as. But more than 1.90 m former player come another way to stop Neymar, beyond fouls. - Lock Neymar is difficult, very difficult because it continually moves the ball and legs. It's smart, fast. It is best to make the sign of the cross and hope that he is wrong because stealing the ball Neymar is not easy. Materazzi will only watch a match of the World Cup in Brazil, the end. It will also be the first time the Italian football in the country and end the Maracana. He wants to see Brazil and Italy. Check out the full interview: Marco Materazzi, what have you done? Well, finished the course trainer, coach and now I'm deciding what I want to do. It is not easy to quit football and move away as I'm doing, but for me it is the best solution and the only way to think well about what you want to do.Many players can not be away from the lawn and so jump right to the bench as coaches. But take that leap is not easy, it's totally different player and you be worrying about yourself or being a manager and having to manage 25 people all different. I still do not know if I'll make that jump and when is that going to do. What do you miss most in football? Of the fans. Because in the end they are what make you great. And why not stand to see my colleagues upset by having to sign autographs. I always think that without the fans we would not exist. That's the naked truth.

The World Cup began with the Brazil-Croatia, what did you think of this game?

Brazil saw a team of motivated, with tension, which is normal, because it has all the pressure on his shoulders, but quiet. The goal of Croatia changed slightly to match, Brazil had to turn the result, but in the end there could draw with a hard not to see that it was not a penalty, but also Brazil could reach many times the area of Croatia penalty was always in the opponent's half of the field, so that Neymar had already had the opportunity to hang there in the area, he often gambled in dribbling speed, but he never did.So, okay so the result. expecting much from Neymar All this World Cup, he starts doing two goals. What meaning can this begin? He showed everyone who's Neymar. Everyone says he is a phenomenon, but one must show it on the pitch. That's what he did. Before entering the field, went to the companions, motivated, Neymar took an entire nation on his back and doing this it is also showing the world who's Neymar as a player, as a boy and as a person. 's World Cup was the most important of his career, but here I only see your tattoo with the cup of the Champions League by Inter Milan title course we also have a tattoo with the Cup of the World Cup, but I can not show, is down here ( pointed to the bottom of the stomach). Do not want to start talking about my tattoos or having to explain one by one, please. The final of the Champions League was the crowning of my career, I won all means. The world was the highest point, was the best of my career. A highlight was also the final in Berlin on you was the absolute protagonist. 's true. Scored the equalizing goal, converted the penalty in the series. Not missed anything. And the most beautiful thing was that told me Giggi Riva, who was a very great player, a person who was very close to us in the World and told me later: "Marco, I would trade all of my career goals for his goal in end. "It made ​​me sink in and have an idea of the magnitude of what we had just done. Were you one of the heroes of tetra Italy. And this Italy Prandelli can dream with penta? I see a strong selection, quality and be able to overcome the first phase, can pack up to the end of the tournament. True, it has several strong South American teams like Brazil, Argentina, Uruguay, Colombia, too. European are the same as always: Italy, Germany and Spain. One of these seven, eight teams will win. And I see Italy a bit like France 2006, a team that had young players like Ribery, Malouda and others experienced. I see Italy in this situation now. There are these seven, eight candidates, but what really makes the difference between one that is at the end of the world champion and the other? Luck plays a role. Do not believe it that whoever wins has more hungry for victory. I mean, who goes to a World Cup title without hunger, without motivation, it is better to stay home and give up playing football. Luck is a component of the union group is also very important. In the match against Croatia, see Julio Cesar Marcelo comforting, encouraging him to seek victory after that goal against, it says a lot in Brazil. Brazil is a group. At that moment, and I've been there, it is easier to discourage the player and download performance in the World Cup to get up. What did the Marcellus is not easy and encouragement Julio says a lot. Speaking of Julio Cesar, there are many who fears for his performance in the World Cup after a season in which he played little and a less competitive level. Can only say that after Buffon, Julio Cesar is the best. He is at the same level of Casillas. It is one of the best in the world. At Inter Milan, he always gave me a lot of security and, like all Brazilians, handles very well with the critics. I tell Brazilians to trust in Julius Caesar, it will not be a problem.

Returning to his Italy. Who deserves to be the holder: Balotelli or Immobile

Immobile could hold in any selection Cup. But Mario will play early in the first game. Is it fair to be this way, he was the striker of Italy in qualifying, carried the team to a good and early qualification. But Prandelli is a guy who does not look at faces or names, is like Lippi. If you have to take Balotelli, he takes the bet and Immobile. After the first game, will be the holder who is better. before you told me you trust the Julio Cesar into the goal. And for the Azzurri attack, you rely on Balotelli. Yeah, I do. He has only to find the goal, why not mark some time ago, but is quiet. He knows he can be at the level of Neymar, but Neymar should be the other night, one in which his nation is losing and he returns to the midfield to retrieve a ball that can generate a momentous occasion for goal. That's what Neymar and Oscar did. Immobile is playing well and mainly he's picking the ball behind the defense and help. That, in a World Cup and how these temperatures we're seeing in Brazil, is very important.If you were at this World Cup, playing against Brazil, which strategy would you use to catch Neymar? 's difficult, very difficult, because it moves continuously the ball and legs. It's smart, fast. It is best to make the sign of the cross and hope that he is wrong because stealing the ball Neymar is not easy. evaluates As the two quarterbacks Brazil? Like, I think complement each other. I see very strong Thiago Silva, a pure defender with a good long shot. David Luiz, who also acts as flywheel Occasionally, complete Thiago. But the real crux of the defense is the Brazilian Thiago.  No, no way (bother about being remembered for Zidane headbutt on), because when I walk into my house, I have the cup there and remember that I made two goals and won the title. That's what counts                                  You had a reputation as a bad defender. It was just fame or profit too?

Yeah, true, but being bad does not mean to hurt the opponent play, but want to win. I do not think Thiago Silva is, less hard or bad less aggressive than I was if I have less desire to take home the three points for your Brazil.So it be bad to say win, so yes I'm bad. At the 2006 World Cup which is that was the deciding play, that you thought, I'll be world champion? After the semifinal with Germany. It was a tough game playoff was all or nothing, is that game where you know that if you lose you must compete in the third and fourth place is the ultimate losers. It's the game that nobody wants to play, then we went to the meeting with Germany knowing it was decisive, we wanted to win to lift the trophy. Having gone to final in Berlin, have you ever felt champ? Yeah, inside me I had sure we would win. There is always some fear, but the important thing is not to touch the glass before the game, because if you play, you do not raise the Cup at the end. Nowadays, you bother to speak only of Zidane's headbutt on you and not their goals? No, no way, because when I walk into my house, I have the cup there and remember that I made ​​two goals and won the title. That's what counts. But this move changed the game, do you agree? can not know. He was an expert in the shootout, but could have scored his and another player have wrong. There is more fate than competence. Penalties are a lottery, all players make mistakes from time to time, I never saw one that he missed not. Could you repeat the provocation that led to Zidane's headbutt it was today? If things had gone the same way, I probably would do all the anyway, because I'm not a robot. Guilt is never just one person. That's what I tell my kids when they fight. First, we need to hear the truth from both sides, then we can consider that one more wrong than the other, but to be a fight, the two were guilty
           You sit next to at a dinner Zidane?

Why not? Would have no problem, I have the utmost respect for Zidane for his career and for his work today. 's true that you want to work with Mourinho as adjuvant? If ever the occasion arises, I will have all the honor of doing so. But there have to be the conditions for that to happen and it does not depend on me. So far, I have not had time to train, do not know yet if I will do, but because I know it is not easy to make the leap from player to coach, starting as an adjunct, why not. Are you a supporter and friend of Mourinho, but noticed that more and more players at loggerheads with him? 's true. I also noticed that, but he is a super smart guy and it cost me believe that a coach who managed the successes he achieved in Inter Milan, winning the sympathy of all their players has suddenly changed. He knows he needs the empathy of the players to win. For example, I, with Mou, hardly ever played and could also speak ill of him. But he was a guy who said things to my face and it made ​​us become friends. I cried when he left Inter, because even not playing, he taught me values ​​and principles in those two years and it is very important not only play that counts. I had fun and good times spent in training and that, for a guy who knows his career is ending, makes all the difference.
