Materazzi just won't let it go

IN ONE of those 'Oh, just let it go, will you?' moments, Marco Materazzi has regurgitated the infamous headbutt which marred the end of Zinedine Zidane's glorious career. The Italian is alleged to have said something derogatory about the Frenchman's family, prompting Zidane to launch his moment of infamy in the 2006 World Cup final. But, instead of forgetting about it, Materazzi says the incident still rankles so much he will be holidaying across America this summer.

Materazzi told La Repubblica newspaper the headbutt showed the "disgusting" side of football.
