Makes it look so easy and no effort here. And I know it's against this kind of competition, (with absolutely no disrespect) but still, to move a ball around like he does is quite hypnotic. No wonder he's gone down as one of the greats of the game. No doubt he could have waltzed through every player on that pitch 3 or 4 times and then scored at will but his personality shines through as well. Legend, wish there was more like him now.
Florentino Perez once said in an interview in 2003 (the Real Madrid President at the time): "When Zidane has the ball, it is like watching a ballerina gliding across the stage, or a swan gracefully perusing through the lake. It is like as if he has a string attached to the ball from his boot, he can dictate which way, where and how the ball will travel once he has it in control, without a doubt he is Real Madrid's best investment...."
I have never seen player better than Zidane in this worl, he is absolutly Legend noone can compare to him in history of football even pele and maradona. he is the best player ever long life Zizou.
I know these are only highlights of his game, but BOY is he looking sharp, precision passing, and just an awareness of the game that only the top 1% of players will ever have.
this guy was the best ever..just the hendrix of football...truly mind blowing.
loved the way all his tricks just worked...i cant remember seeing him get one wrong
@ joricky....wanna see another sick player you may not have heard of
check out Gheorgie Hagi, played fro romania mid 80's to mid 90's.
the guy had crazy skillsbut back to zidane...poetry in motion screw ronaldo, messi, tevez or anyone else i would rather watch zidane any day and if not hagi would be 2nd on my list.
he is 37... slowing down yes... but that is some how become another skill of a way... he just have to change his way of play little bit cause of his slowing down.... he retire because he will get tired really really fast,, thats the only reason
Looking at Zidane's performance in that game i can confidently say he is waaaaaaaaaaaay better than LAMPARD is doing currently for England and Chelsea. (Chelsea fan)
only just watched this for first time and considering hes been retired for 4 years at this point i think it shows class is permanent his touch and vision clearly still there
@iahu1991 Yeah Maradona was a great player no doubt but never one of the best if Cristiano Ronaldo wins a World Cup he'll be as good as Maradona for me i think Pele was maybe the greatest but i think he's too arrogant about it i think he has a point to be a bit arrogant but like not enough to call other players more below him i think with Zidane when he played football he embarrassed players but remained humble i think he had temper occasionally but only cos others were jealous and riled him
@iahu1991 Why even compare Zidane & Pele? We can only differentiate them in the sense that they were the dominant players in their era. They never even played the same position. Did ZZ have the goalscoring instincts of Pele? Surely not but he did score quite the outstanding goals. Could Pele dominate and distribute the midfield like ZZ? That wasnt his duty. Besides, Zidane excelled playing the modern game, who knows if Pele could have hacked it in todays physical football. Both are legends.
Zidane's just like "I could school all these fools but to be honest just could not be fucked man. I can't wait for this thing to end Woody and me gonna hit the town and pick up some babes!"
It's nice to see his face again. If you squint a little bit, it almost looks like he's wearing France blue in an international game. Zidane is greatly missed
How casual does he look here? It's incredible, even though he's playing people who for the most part have never played world class football, he looks so relaxed. It's like breathing for him.
who put in that tackle on zidane at 4:26 cos if its a celebrity he will be boasting about that moment for the rest of his life and he would be right to , btw zidane should still be playing , he shouldnt have retired so young
Im thinking off the list of best football players ever. Pele, Maradonna, Cruyff, Best and Zinedine Zidane is on that list too. He is soo intelligent, just as Cruyff
It's the little things that Zidane does that makes him so good. He does everything perfectly, right down to the last inch of kicking a ball. Ronaldo has flair and pace, Messi has flair and pace, Zidane had that and more...
At 1:27, i was thinking to myself, "I would be honored if i got nutmegged by Zidane!!"
