Zidane

World cup final, Extra time, we all know what happened. Zidane has now been punished for his actions. £3260 fine and I am not joking. I imagine this is the amount of interest he earns a day in his bank account. The winner of the golden boot has got away with it. A headbutt in front of millions.

When you look at the amount these prima donnas earn in a week, I don't think Zidane will bat an eye-lid. All generations would have been glued to the game and would have witnessed the incident. With Sepp Blatter wanting to suspended Rooney for five games. The punishment looks weak. The fact a retired player has been given a suspension is laughable.

This punishment has annoyed and frustrated me, I grew up loving football and playing football. If this is the image professionals wish to set and governing bodies accept, the world of football is going to fall into a depressing period. With headbutting, diving and weak governing bodies it will be the ruin of the beautiful game.
