LMAO 0:49 Brazilian monkey gets aggravated and grabs zidane. as zindane passes he grabs the guys shirt, and the Brazilian gets angry, LMAO

[3mryounes]

elegant, beautiful, smooth, thats how zidane played

in my eyes, the best player ever

[solymar552]

otra cancion de fondo hubiera quedado mejor, coldplay es bueno pero de ver el video y escuchar la musica me da aguevoniamiento...

[Cocaine8711]

The difference between Zidane and the rest is that he made it look so easy. He did everything so smoothly and easily, like he's just skipping past the players, never really straining himself, just calm and cool. But nevertheless, he could make the greatest players look like fools. I can only dream that there will be someone else like him.

zizou is the best players for me!!!

[ObeyRose]

Come back ZINEDINE ZIDANE football isn't the same without you!

[cmnizzle29]

I'm surprised he didn't headbut someone

[Campestral]

@cmnizzle29 your head is a but

[lfcred90]

i miss this guy what a great player

[giancarlog89]

When you see this video, Messi looks even smaller than he already is, and Cristiano looks like a baby. Don't offend old glories comparing Messi and C. Ronaldo to them, it is that. An offense

[Campestral]

@giancarlog89 zidane is a ballet dancer, he moves with such beauty but messi is a paradigm shift

[mydlarao]

The don

[mikedelishious]

Raw talent + hard work = the ultimate player..

ultimate player = Zinedine Zidane

[Campestral]

@mikedelishious best comment ever but it applies to everyone

[kagias1992]

Grande Zizu :')

[AVFCsi02]

I miss the 90's football and Zinedine Zidane

Much better than the crap we've got now

[A2B5K4]

Zidane simbolizes the entire way of playing football. Best player ever

[Sinan97082]

:D I love it: The Scientist... works with his head, plays with his head and heart, ALSO ... fights with his head, why should he make his fingers dirty by touching someone who is not "zidan-like" ;)))

[mariokillner]

It's just right, The Scientist. Genius.

Thanks Zidane

[RobertoLozanoB]

One of the best of Football

[komate101]

he was not a good footballer.... he was a god:)

[MegaGoodoldtimes]

He was a real football player. Today it's just Lionel Messi, Cristiano Ronaldo and David Beckham, fuck them

[OriginalYTName]

People saying football is dead are wrong, it's still as good as it's ever been. Zidane and the greats around during his time will never be forgotten but football always moves on.

In a decade or so from now people will be upset that the greats of Messi and Ronaldo are no longer playing. It's how it always is.

[ECU7]

@OriginalYTName The only thing I disagree about this is that the game has changed. It's now more defensive and even (competitive you could say), not as free flowing as before. And I consider Zidane one of the best ever nonetheless. Zizou Zizou!

[Mingaa10]

King :)

[leojavi9]

el mejor jugador de todos los tiempos el sabio zidane

[S18r88m22]

Zidane Es el jugador mas grande Que Yo e visto y la canccion Es super Chida

 Super video

[gombost]

I've never seen such elegance in football. No unnecessary tricks or moves, only true brilliance.

[UltimateTeamFan]

the vast majority of ronaldo's goals are headers and penalties and i find it hard to enjoy watching messi because i have to watch him play with cheats :(

i want zidane back :(

[AVFCsi02]

The greatest player I've seen play football

[daivdloco]

kra ñ existe jogador e nunca vai haver um zidane e o melhor q deus deu entre os jogadores

[melayubego]

zidane retire already..he's amazing but it's unfair the make comparison with the new genaration of footballer..every generation will have thier own star..now it's messi

[robertorueda1791]

Messi or cristiano are nothing compare to zidane.. unfortunately they didn't play together so we could prove it

[Kaloucas]

2:59 how many legs do he have ? Oo

[looptroopz]

The greatest player I've ever seen, and probably ever will see. Zizou was complete.

[wills22nd]

if c ronaldo and messi were born in zidane's era they wouldnt become well known or maybe ronaldo will not be playing for real madrid

[jimmyalexobob]

he couldn't trap a bag a cement

[salman241000]

who says that zidane is better than messi and Cristiano, thumps up please (:

[mmLeftovers]

football was so much more beautiful in the 90's. seems like the days of technicality and old fashioned playmakers are long gone. nowadays it's all raw athleticism and strength.

i weep for football.

[Fosronis]

@mmLeftovers now its diving diving diving and you need to have speed to finish a chance quickly otherwise if you cant finish you must dive.

[mmLeftovers]

@Fosronis this is the unfortunate truth. :'( well said.

[1212mous]

HOW COULD ANYONE EVER DISLIKE THIS?

[AVFCsi02]

Football just isn't the same without Zinedine Zidane

[WildTiger091]

zidane.. TRUE talent

[ahmed3li1000]

i think our football died ... its all about misse and c.ronaldo i wish i died before i see this fact .. god bless our old stars :(

[PierreLeone]

@ahmed3li1000

Zidane never dived.

Ronaldo Lima never dived.

Ronaldinho never dived.

[Campestral]

@ahmed3li1000 sport is getting interesting now with the technical training, it's going to get better and better, we don't need a god when we are capable of magic all by ourselves. science rules! messi rules science :)

[TheMRGENERALgamer]

hala madrid hala Zinedine Zidane

[slm129]

the world cup has lost zidane and not the way around.

[andypolarjones]

inspiration <3

[moork23]

>As seen On: /sp/ - Sports

I'm proud 

[XXCo0olDudeXX]

Zidane is the most complete player I've ever seen, he can make lethal passes, he can dribble, he can play headers, his ball control is phenomenal, his crosses are deadly, his vision is incomparable, his free kicks are pure magic, and he's one of the calmest on the pitch (in WC final that scumbag insulted him, don't talk shit about him just because of that, he's very calm on the pitch in most matches)

I'm a Barca fan since i can remember, i hate Madrid very much, but i respect Zidane, legend <3

[SuperMrSatan40]

@XXCo0olDudeXX zidane and figo where chopping legs when real madrid was loosing ...

[Fisniket80]

how is this song called

[eduardoisbest]

1998-France World Cup Champions (Zidane played)

2002-France nocked out in group stage (zidane didnt play)

2006-France made it to World Cup Final (Zidane played)

2010-France knocked out in group stage(zidane didnt play)

Anyone else see the pattern?

[eduardoisbest]

By European cup they are talking about the Champions League before it became the champions league in the 90s was when it was first called the champions league... so stop acting stupid because he is right Zidane is the only player in the world to win all those awards. Ronaldo never won champions league btw... niether did maradona, and Pele played alongside others who made him look better like messi now.

[GarryMc67]

@eduardoisbest EXACTLY!!! And that trophy is called the European Cup. Thank god, somebody that knows something about football.

[MrKrzychu43]

Nie ma z nim równych ;) Zajebisty !

[TheTommassio]

Beautiful video, what a player. Absolute genius on the pitch, and one who played the beautiful game how it should be played.

this video made me cry, I don't know why but it did :"(

[misfecool]

this is one soccer legend. even though I wasn't a fan of his teams, he was my favorite player

[moonym19]

Messi may be the best football player, but Zidane is the biggest football LEGEND. Stop comparing them, it's useless.

[EmadP123]

Messi never won euro cup

[ForzaZuniga]

@GarryMc67 With all respect to Zidane , you have got your facts wrong Maradona won the european cup with napoli, Pele Never played in europe and scored 1284 goals. These 2 Players are the greatest of all time yes zizo can be compared but wrong facts, pele won 3 WC to mention.

[Messi10R91]

@ForzaZuniga pelé is shit

[GarryMc67]

@ForzaZuniga Maradona won the UEFA Cup, not the European Cup. Pele didn't play in Europe, where all the best players play.

[Ribaaaary]

Better than Messi, Ronaldo and better than all the others ...

[o5cr]

Zidane and R9 = Football

Messi and Cr7 = Soccer

[KamikazeDemolisher]

So much better than Messi. No fucking contest. Messi is exaggerated in the media. He is misleading and enigmatic. He is a good kick of the ball but not the complete package. Zinedine Zidane had everything. What a player. Badass demolisher. He was the best in his position. He could defend a bit better as well. He could command. He was in a quality era of the highest status. He is the best to play the game. The backlines are not what they were 5-10 years ago. Football is finished. Thank you Zidane

[dfalariver]

El maestro zidane, por favor que gusto da verlo jugar, sin dudas uno de los que han dejado una huella profunda en el futbol

[don1schon]

2:53 Legend

[L4d2d0ZZ1]

he really makes me cry

[L4d2d0ZZ1]

[FFDTVOnline]

Zidane is an absolute legend nothing more needed to be said he is an inspiration to all of us at FFD Check out our trailer search - FFD trailer, feedback more than welcome

[lumanti]

italian scumbag materazzi robbed him his last glory.

[SuperMrSatan40]

@lumanti maluda cheated also

[MkGiaEsena]

@lumanti ofc not! zidane is a legend materazzi is an italian player nothing more..

[Fosronis]

@MkGiaEsena zidane legendary midfielder , materazzi epic defender.

[sassewan]

On my 23rd this year, & yes FIFA WC 98 probably my first real international football memory (after local football). As I'm an Asian, my father woke me up around 3am in the morning for FIFA WC 98 final between Brazil & France.Will never regret that moment, because this player, on this particular video was my real inspiration of why I'm kicking the ball.Greatest player in my generation

[haykier11]

FACT: Zidane was NEVER caught offside in his career

[22azizo]

@haykier11 reallly???!!!!!!!!!!

[AsianAwesome69]

@guspopov LOLOL

[AsianAwesome69]

@AkENsable One of the most talented definitely. Also one of the quickest ever to decline...

[Platypus007]

@AsianAwesome69 I strongly disagree. He left the game almost at the top, despite the manner of his exit. But even the Materazzi incident chnages nothing about the fact that he was the driving force of the French team at the 2006 WC where Henry and other usually dependable players were often struggling.

[AsianAwesome69]

@Platypus007 wait... what did I say? I don't know which comment you replied to hahah

[Platypus007]

@AsianAwesome69 The part about Zidane declining rapidly, of course... sorry for the misunderstanding.

[AsianAwesome69]

@Platypus007 oh definitely not lolol, I was referring to Ronaldinho. Some guy kept spamming Ronaldinho is the best of all time so it just got annoying lol. Zidane retired the best... sorry if I annoyed you for that misunderstanding

[Platypus007]

@AsianAwesome69 Oh, I see... well it is my fault that I can't read:-) I didn't bother to scroll to the next page and just assumed the comment was about Zidane the King! For sure, Ronaldinho is/was an exciting and amazingly skillful player, but like you said he came down from soaring high, what a shame... playmakers are usually not that limited by physical decline, so he could have played at the top well into his 30s.

[AsianAwesome69]

Another thing I really miss is when Zizou played in Real Madrid with Ronaldo, R. Carlos, Beckham, Figo, and the other Galacticos and Barcelona had Ronaldinho, fans respected the players of each others teams despite the intense rivalry. Nowadays, el Clasico has no respect whatsoever, constant arguing, fighting, etc... I miss Zizou and older football so much.

[AVFCsi02]

Definitely the greatest ever footballer to kick a football. Better than the likes of Laudrup, Scholes, Ronaldinho and the rest.

[WETs3rgullioni]

Zidane=all of Barcelona

[DAOS1981]

Hermoso video!!!!

[chupan]

whats the name of this song, does anyone know???

thx!

[1214gooner]

@chupan "The Scientist" by Coldplay

[GarryMc67]

Okay, let's deal with the FACTS here. Players who have won World Player of the Year/Ballon d'Or and are generally considered amongst "The Greatest of all Time"

Messi - European Cup [x] World Cup [ ]

Maradona - European Cup [ ] World Cup [x]

Ronaldo - European Cup [ ] World Cup [x]

Cruyff - European Cup [x] World Cup [ ]

Pele - European Cup [ ] World Cup [x]

Zidane - European Cup [x] World Cup [x]

Zidane is the greatest.

Case. Fucking. Closed.

[RadioFawda]

@GarryMc67 you're a fucken legend. case. fucking. closed.

[CrackRazor510]

@GarryMc67 You forgot the Brasilian Ronaldo has also won European cup and world cup and player of the year...

[GarryMc67]

@CrackRazor510 No he didn't. Only the world cup, as it says in my comment.

[GarryMc67]

@CrackRazor510 Unless you thought I genuinely regarded Cristiano the pretender one of the greatest footballers of all time. Of course not.

[CrackRazor510]

@GarryMc67 im talking about Ronaldo Luís Nazário de Lima, and im NOT Talking about Cristiano...and i have sources saying Ronaldo Luís Nazário de Lima has won both european cup, world cup and player of the year.. look it up on wikipedia

[eduardoisbest]

@CrackRazor510 ronaldo luis nazario de lima did not win the Curopean Cup he won the CUP WINNERS CUP which is like the Uefa Cup or Im not sure what it is called now but it is the second tier cup he never won the champions league/european cup so dont use wikipedia if you dont even know the diffrence between Cup names....

[CrackRazor510]

@eduardoisbest uhm he has won it in both tiers one with Barcelona in 1997 and then with Inter in 1998..

[GarryMc67]

@CrackRazor510 Wrong.

[GarryMc67]

@CrackRazor510 Cup Winners Cup and the UEFA Cup. The European Cup (or since you're obviously 14 "the Champions League trophy") is the big boys trophy.

[XTunerGT]

@GarryMc67 Iniesta has won both of these as well....

[GarryMc67]

@XTunerGT Iniesta did win both but he hasn't won european player of the year or the ballon d'Or, and isn't close to being regarded as the best ever.

[irib3d]

@GarryMc67 Dude, are you stupid or what ? Messi, Maradona, Ronaldo and Pele are south-americans.

[Dawidwf]

@GarryMc67 only Cruyff can won european cup because rest footballers are from america! Case is still open.

[GarryMc67]

@Dawidwf European Cup, as in the trophy you get for winning the Champions League is the European Cup.

[Dawidwf]

@GarryMc67 oh... sorry I didn't understand that quite. my mistake Im from polish and I still learn english :)

[GarryMc67]

@Dawidwf No problem, your english is MUCH better than my polish haha

[TheRiddam]

@GarryMc67 So why do you think Pele and Ronaldo didn't get the European cup?

[GarryMc67]

@TheRiddam Because Ronaldo never inspired his team to victory in the European Cup, and Pele never played in europe so didn't prove himself in the biggest club competition in football. And before you embarrass yourself like the rest of these idiots please learn the difference between the European Cup and the European Championships.

[DanielSeanG]

@GarryMc67 What about Xavi? The guy has won everything (couldn't of been won without him) yet is so underrated it's unreal.

[GarryMc67]

@DanielSeanG I think Xavi's a great player and is underrated, but he hasn't won World Player of the Year or the Ballon d'Or, even though I think he should have last year.

[craeli]

@GarryMc67 hey dumbass, since when did south american players get to play in the euro cup. Maybe champions league.

[GarryMc67]

@craeli @rfgust The European Cup is the trophy you get for winning the Champions League, morons.

[rfgust]

@GarryMc67 Pelé really doesnt win European Cup, because he's brazilian! hahahaha

[SuperMrSatan40]

@GarryMc67 zidane won only 1 world cup in his home pele won 3 and he never played in europe also real madrid was a super team when zidane was playing.

one of the best but you cant be absolute about it.

[GarryMc67]

@SuperMrSatan40 On the flip side of that argument is the argument that Pele never proved himself in Europe, where all the best players play. However you like to interpret it, Zidane was the only one of the "greats" that has won the best international competition and the best club competition.

[SuperMrSatan40]

@GarryMc67 coming to europe then wasnt as easy as it is now also zidane was born in europe i repeat zidane was one of the greatest but titles are sometimes situational real madrid was a beast team then.

its like saying if messi wins a world cup he will be better than zidane? i dont think so.

[GarryMc67]

@SuperMrSatan40 The "Galacticos" were actually not that great a team and they won very little. That Champions League final game wasn't going their way at all and Zidane not only put in a man of the match performance but scored the winner from a situation that 90% of players wouldn't even consider shooting. So Zidane winning that title was in no way situational.

[GarryMc67]

@SuperMrSatan40 Pele, like Messi, was an exceptional player within his comfort zone. Take them out of that comfort zone and they are still really good, but less effective. They wouldn't be able to play in a defensive team playing long balls regularly (not to mention football was FAR less tactical when Pele played).

[GarryMc67]

@SuperMrSatan40 That's what separates Zidane from the rest, for me at least. Zidane could play any way, he could control a long ball to his head or chest as easily as a short pass to feet. Also, Zidane always had that little bit more or that something special for when things weren't going well.

Apologies for the novel :P

[JBTrollin]

i wish zidane stayed young forever and never retired /: you'll never find a player like zidane ever again

[Aangs112]

a girl told me today that cristiano ronaldo was better than zidane. i told her to shut the fuck up

[theositompul]

the legendary baldy,just one and only zidane..

dislike = materazzi fans

[realmadridzidane5]

There is only one Zizou. However, the player who most resembles his playing style, elegance and class in modern football is probably the very underrated Dimitar Berbatov. How the hell he doesn't start over Chicharito i will never know

[YEFWE]

@realmadridzidane5. now i dont believe this. seriously.

[realmadridzidane5]

@YEFWE I said they have similair playing styles. I know Berbatov isn't as good as Zidane was, but they do play alike. Have you ever watched Berbatov play? 

[eric0838]

better than messi

[Mrkaaaw]

1:40 wft :D ?

[ghae1]

There have been many great players throughout the history of football. This man, however, played the game with such elegance, and such class. The men inventing the game of football would`ve been proud of Zizou. He played football the way it was meant to be played. Pure class!

[direeye]

Zidane e Luis Figo. Os melhores da história do futebol...

[free4gsm]

Nice clip

[Z0diiaaC]

he is the best football player in the history, no boogie!

[popi1496]

that damn bald spot

[aditisawesome1]

Even after what happened in the world cup of 2006. I don't think any of his fans will leave him

He matches Pele, Maradona, Ronaldo(s), and messi

One of the best players ever

[elsalvador131993]

@aditisawesome1 What do you mean Ronaldos there is only one Ronaldo and that is the leading world cup goal scorer

Also Messi Is great but Zidane does not match him Messi matches Zidane its the other way around

[A7ADI]

I still watch this vedio ! 2012/01/07

[KieronSchenko]

I don't know if it's because his baldness, but Zidane always looked so mature on the pitch. Like he was teaching the younger players how it's done!
