| Sorry, thegreat, a lot was made of the fourth/fifth official calling the ref back because he saw the incident and stopping play retrospectively. If they'd have arrested Zidane, yes there was video evidence, but Materazzi? Accusation, witness statements, submissions to the CPS equivalent, yes/no proceed with case... Meanwhile there would still be ten minutes on the clock of the World Cup final. I reckon that would be a good plot for a comic novel...

| Fifa is to investigate Zidane's sending-off while Fifa president Sepp Blatter has hinted the France star could be stripped of his World Cup best player award.

The self-serving twat. It's only a matter of time that he rescinds the Ukraine penalties knockout, replays the '94 championships completely, awards the '66 World Cup restrospectively to Switzerland and gives the dullest country in the world the 2008 European championships. "His incumbency has been marked with rumors of financial irregularities and backroom dealings, culminating in 2002 with direct accusations of bribery made in the press by the Somali FA member Farra Ado of an offer of $100,000 to vote for Blatter. Sepp Blatter's deputy at the time, Michael Zen-Ruffinen, drew up a dossier outlining allegations of financial mismanagement and corruption within FIFA. The dossier alleged that the collapse of ISL had led to negative equity and losses of up to $100m under Blatter's organisation. The allegations were backed by the head of UEFA, Lennart Johansson. The dossier was handed to the Swiss authorities but no action was taken. Zen-Ruffinen was removed from office by Blatter immediately prior to the FIFA World Cup 2002." Lovely chap. Lest we forget.
