he seems so calm.........no rush ...no hurry.....a magician.....love you zidane......best ever......he took his team from nothing to highest level......
If you understand football as putting a ball into a net, you would say Pelé, Maradona or Messi are the best. But if you understand football as a teamplay form of art, as the pursuit of perfection, the one and only best player of all time must be Zinedine Zidane.
+shekhar Narwal I thing you are playing too many video games and that is not an insult either it is a joke. Zidane as a player was super skillful like Messi, Cruijff and Platini but on top of that skill he had the ability to win the biggest games which those other players come below him. Maradona, ZIdane and Pele were on the same level in that they could win the biggest games with their outrageous skills.
I think that it is more spectacular to play like Zidane than just put the ball in the net thousand times..Football is not just about the result,fans are coming to see a show and Zidane made the game much more interesting than the others did..Football is not just about running with the ball on your feet and dribbling the others..
I grew up watching football in Africa, which is the sports everyone watch. But I only pay attention about it when I watched zinedine zidane played. Since his retirement I stopped watching football because there is nothing to watch again. He took the passion I have with him . The only player who doesn't have to score to be relevant. ZIZOU. MERCI

But what an epic header! Kind of made him even more of legend. A man who said "the honor of my family is more important then this stupid peirce of metal." Deep down I don't think he regretted it.
@@kvaka009he got played by a team who knew his triggers. He should have had more discipline. He absolutely regretted it. Finest player on the field got sent off for his temper. Very foolish.
People say we entered the bad timeline when they shooted that gorilla dead, or when Trump won the election. I always believed that it started with Italy winning that final 😅
The player that came back from retirement and took his whole country to the world cup final Don't get me wrong he was 34 by that time and was playing against probably the greatest era of football players there was at that time That's what set him apart from any other player he perform not only in big games but he did it constantly all throughout his career That's why i consider him the greatest ever not only because he won everything in football a great achievement yes But when you watch him play he entertains you You never know which moves he gonna do next and he does all of it effortless with elegance pure beauty He plays football as it should be He's the definition of FOOTBALL Ohh we miss you zizou 😢
He didn't took them anywhere. In the 2006 World Cup ZZ had a big game against Brazil, and everybody talked about how he carried his team on his shoulders. France had a fantastic defense conceding only 3 goals. ZZ was: - mediocre in group stage vs Switzerland, man of the match was Makelele. - mediocre vs South Korea. In the third game vs Togo, France needed to win, and they did it without ZZ, the MVP was Patrick Viera. In the last 16 round match vs Spain, Vieira made his best game, assisted the first goal, and scored the second, was voted MVP again, but suddenly, everybody praised ZZ for his third goal in the last seconds. Against Portugal, Lilian Thuram was voted for MVP. ZZ scored from the spot . The same thing happened in the final, great dive from Malouda. Man of the match, Andrea Pirlo. And suddenly ZZ voted Mvp in this tournament, because of his performance vs Brazil. Andrea Pirlo 3 times MVP in 2006 (including the final), Patrick Vieira 2 times MVP (vs Togo and vs Spain), but somehow the journalists voted ZZ. Why ? Because it was his last game, and off course because Zidane was the media darling. ZZ is extremely overrated.
Michael Trumph ok mate you're just salty he's better than you can be even in your dreams you clown. Go and cry some more whilst zidane at 58 will be better than you will ever be in your life you fool
@@umarpatel8170 I just pointed out some facts, u imbecile. What does that have got to do with me ? Did I ever compare myself to him ? I just pointed out he's not as good as some think. And I gave some very good arguments. Now shut the fuck up, u clueless fanboy.
Michael Trumph also he was 34 at that tournament and playing at the highest level, against some of the best players ever do you expect him to be doing what he was at 26/27. He literally came out of retirement and dropped masterclass performances. If he wasn't that good, why was France doing not that good when he wasn't in the team, and when he came back the team played great and got to World Cup final. Obviously his teammates knew he was that good
@@umarpatel8170 First of all, 34 is not exactly that old for an attacking midfielder. It's not like he was 40. His job was to assist and create chances, not to run 20 km. Plenty great players have played at a high level into advanced age into positions that were physically far more demanding. Maldini played until he was almost 40. And France didn't need ZZ that much. What part of what I wrote didn't u understand ? Apart from the Brazil game, he didn't do shit. Same thing happened in the 98 World Cup. ZZ was red carded after stamping on a player from Saudi Arabia. France played two games without ZZ, one was against Paraguay and the other was against Denmark. And guess what ? France won both of those games. Against Denmark it was Laurent Blanc who was man of the match. ZZ also did nothing vs Italy and vs Croatia and France won both of those games. This time it was Lilian Thuram who was the man of the match in both of these games. Basically France with or without Zidane achieved virtually identical results; 3 goals scored and 1 goal conceded in the 2 games that Zidane did not play; 2 goals scored and 1 goal conceded in the 2 games that Zidane did play. In the Final France faced a Brazil team which was in a huge disarray because Ronaldo was unfit. The final is the one thing that makes or breaks Zidane's entire myth.
The only football player that put a smile on my face whenever i see him play It was just a pure beauty to watch him such elegance he makes everything effortless so simple so easy for him I don't know but there is something about this man that sets him apart from all other footballers something unique that he bring to us there will never be another player like zizou The greatest player ever for me :)
I think first touch and intelligence are making him different from others. He is like inestia with better intelligence plus shooting of Steven Gerrad and much stronger.
@@user-oc3my9sr2n from when on you started watching football??....ever heard of players like tostao, zico,revilnho, Gianni Rivera,boby Charlton,Johan Cruyff,hiedigutti....and from this generation players like pirlo and ronaldinho ,Kaka, modric
@@luangj5928 He ain't even top 10, let alone top 5. He ranks between 20 and 30 all time. Ronaldo, Ronaldinho, Pele, Maradona, Cruyff, Zico, Messi, CR7, Best, Baggio, Van Basten, M.Laudrup, Di Stefano, Best, Del Piero, Totti, Pirlo, Xavi, Iniesta, Romario, Rivaldo, Kaka, Henry, Platini, Bergkamp - all are better than Zidane
@@michaeltrumph121 u r saying that rivaldo, Xavi , Iniesta,kaka all are better than him? U should watch football first..the only player can be better than him is only Maradona...only Maradona can be compared with his skill, individual performance in big stages and world cup and also world cup trophy wise.. other than nobody can come close to zizu .
@@anikdey4938 I've watched him live, he is not as good as those I mentioned. And what individual performance in the big stages ?! He barely showed up, apart from Euro 2000.
No need to argue, he's the greatest player of all time in the modern era... A magnificent player in every game he played, and a true god in the greatest matchs... World cup, Euro and Champions League, almost by himself in less than 4 years... Who has done that in the modern era, a single man, dominating a sport? Not even iniesta come close. Who has raise an entire country, wining everything, against the best players... No one has his touch, with both feet, vision, elegance and intelligence... He never needed the speed of a messi or the muscles of a Ronaldo, he was just above, insanely gifted. Nobody could take the ball from him, it was surreal sometimes, inventing every game a new skill, a new move, like a symphony played with his feet... He was out of this sport, out of this world, a privilege to witness, anybody who really watched him, and knows football, deep inside, knows he was the best of all time, the best in every league he played, the best in the continent, and the world. What he did, has not been done since... Skills beyond imagination.. Thanks for the vid btw! ;-)
Agreed. Special player. I haven't seen coordination like his. He was not normal. It was a pleasure and honour to experience him playing the beautiful game more beautifully than any other player.
Ronaldo was called phenomenon, than Zidane is that force that unleashes Ronaldo. Zidane's play is all about excerting influence on the pitch, both team mates and opponents fall spell to the force he unleashed. He is like a hypnotizer, he is not the fastest nor is he the strongest, but he definitely knows how to manipulate the ball the most natural and non-intrusive way. I always wonder how can he control the ball so well with so few touches, nobody can do that except him!
elegance, vision, skill, unique dribbling, left foot/right foot finish, long range shots. OMG.. he is out of this world!!!!!! Such a great personality as well!! That son of a b**** materazzi.... he caused such disgraceful international exit for such a legend... Italy will never win a world cup again!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Class, elegance, technique, genius, control, vision, essentiality, wisdom, courage, authority, poetry, art and pure beauty.. Zinedine Zidane with Michael Laudrup and Ronaldinho (de Assis Moreira) were the best who stroked a ball over a field of green grass. Thank you from the bottom of my heart and forever (a football lover)
I'm not a footballer, but I can see greatness, such natural talent, so graceful with the ball. That headbutt only makes him an even bigger legend. His emotions truly rounds him out as a human being, the fire within.
I remember media saying Zidane would be remembered for the headbut above all else ..... that didn't happen :) Greatest player of all time, complete player.
To this day every time I see a video of this brilliant man I get wet eyes. I only had privilege of watching him for last 3 seasons of his career but to me those were the 3 greatest seasons I have even watched. To me he is the essence of what football is soposed to be. Doing everything with finesse, not forcing anything, everything just seemed natural to him. And at the end of the day he always remained humble deep down. At the end of the day he was just a man and this is what I loved about him. He had his flaws but noone else could make me feel the way he did when he played and to me this is the most important. He never scored 50+ in a season, he was never the star guys like Messi and CR are nowdays being everywhere in media, yet more (grown) people loved him than any modern superstar. Maby he is not the best ever but for me he will always be the greatest becous at the end of the day it is not about all the goals and the trophyes but about all the emotions that the game brings. Football is the beautiful game and Zizu was personification of that. Man I am really missing the early to mid 2000s, to me that was the golden age of football with geniouses like Zizu, Ronaldinho, Ronaldo, Raul and everyone else...
Best Midfielder in the history. One of the best Goal Striker in the history. Best playmaker ever in the history. One of the best captain in the history. One of the best coach in the history. In a nutshell, BEST Footballer in the history. The One and Only ZIZOU.
he is one of only eight players to win UCL, WC and Ballon Dor. Not to mention knocking Brazil out of two world cup finals in incredible style, outplaying them almost single handedly displaying unmatched ball control and passing at that level and during this era, not to mention winning almost every major tournament he has entered, not to mention being the stellar player in any team he entered. He is the only 1 to do it ALL. He won every single accolade there is in football and was always the integral and best player in any team he ever entered, he plays better the harder the challenge. when he is most needed he shows up. not to mention he won trophies in France, Italy and Spain. Not to mention, he came back from retirement at 34! and displayed one of the most beautiful world cup displays by any player in an impossible road to the the WC final vs elite opposition. You couldnt write a better film, Messi and Ronaldo can only dream now, they will never achieve what zidane has unfortunately., Zizou is the greatest of all time and most people who truly know about football, i.e. coaches, commentators, players could well agree. So many people have said 'he is the greatest of the modern era' and the 1990s-2000 era is the greatest era in football hence ZZ is the best ever. These younguns dont fully understand football, its not how many you score, its when you score and who you score against. Zizou has scored and destroyed 90% of all the big teams, Barca, Juventus, Spain, Italy, England, Portugal, Man utd, Brazil, Bayern Munich, etc etc, dont even get me started on his managerial career. Case closed.
he has never been better than Brazil ronaldo. 1998 world cup ronaldo was sick and Brazil ronaldo would have easily won the world cup if he wasn't sick. Zidane is a great tournament player and he is also a very elegant player. how many years he consistently perform very well for his clubs? don't mistake very elegant for being a better player
I can tell that Henry is the greatest ever arsenal player , greatest ever English league player and greatest ever French player. Zidan is not a complete midfield player cuz he is not known to do defend a lot unlike KROOS, casemiero ,Gerrard and MODRIC WHO ARE VERY GREAT ATTACKERS AND DEFENDERS. HOW MANY ASSISTS ZIDAN HAVE FOR HIS CLUB TEAM? ZIDAN WAS VERY INCONSISTENT PLAYING CLUB FOOTBALL AND YES I KNW HE SCORED A BEAUTIFUL GOAL IN THE FINAL FOR REAL MADRID BUT WAT DID HE DO FOR REAL MADRID SINCE SCORING THAT BEAUTIFUL GOAL? ZIDAN ONLY PLAYED WELL IN TOURNAMENT FOR FRANCE BUT DIDINT PLAY WELL CONSISTENTLY PLAYING CLUB FOOTBALL UNLIKE HENRY HE WAS A BEAST FOR ARSENAL, BARCELONA AND FRANCE. HENRY IN TOP 2 GREATEST EVER STRIKER AND MY TOP 5 GREATEST EVER PLAYER. R9 WAS UNBELIEVABLE BEFORE HIS KNEE INJURY BUT SINCE HIS KNEE INJURY AND LIFESTYLE HE WASN'T D SAME AND HE WAS INCONSISTENT. IF IF IF CANT USE TO DETERMINE GREATEST AND R9 ACHIEVEMENTS SPEAK FOR HIMSELF AND ITS SAD TO KNW HOW HE COULD HAVE ACHIEVED MORE JUST LIKE RONALDINHO. IS ZIDAN THE GREATEST EVER REAL MADRID PLAYER? IS ZIDAN THE GREATEST EVER LA LIGA PLAYER ? ZIDAN WAS EXCEPTIONAL GREAT FOR FRANCE IN TOURNAMENT AND HE WAS PLAYING ON A GREAT FRENCH TEAM. ZIDAN RARELY DEFEND AND ALSO DONT SCORE OR ASSISTS LOTS OF GOALS IN TOURNAMENTS FOR FRANCE OR PLAYING CLUB FOOTBALL, SO HOW ZIDAN SINGLE HANDEDLY CARRY FRANCE TEAM? I AGREE THAT HE WAS THE STAND OUT PLAYER .LOOK AT MESSI ,HE SCORED , ASSISTS AND DRIBBLE A LOT IN TOURNAMENT FOR ARGENTINA AND ALSO FOR BARCELONA AND THAT IS WAT SINGLE HANDEDLY MEAN AND ITS SAME WITH MBAPPE AND FRANCE CUZ HE IS DOING A LOT OF GOAL SCORING, ASSISTS AND DRIBBLING. TELL ME HOW MUCH ASSIST ,GOAL AND TACKLES ZIDAN MADE IN TOURNAMENTS FOR FRANCEAND CLUB FOOTBALL? AS ME SAY HE WAS CONSISTENTLY OUTSTANDING IN TOURNAMENTS FOR FRANCE ONLY BUT HE WAS INCONSISTENT PLAYING VERY WELL FOR HID CLUBS, YES ,YES WE KNW HE SCORED THAT BEAUTIFUL GOAL IN THE CHAMPION LEAGUE FINAL BUT WHAT ELSE HE DID FOR REAL MADRID THROUGHOUT THE YEARS? HENRY DEMOLISH A TOUGH ENGLISH LEAGUE , WENT TO BARCELONA AND PLAYED WELL CONSISTENTLY AND ALSO DID THE SAME FOR FRANCE , HENRY IS SPECIAL AND ONLY A FEW IS ABOVE HIM LIKE MESSI, CR7 ,PELE MARADONA.WHO IS THE GREATSST EVER ENGLISH LEAGUE PLAYER,?WHO IS THE GREATEST EVER ARSENAL PLAYER? HENRY IS THE GREATEST EVER FRENCH PLAYER.
Henry is better than zidan so don't compare THE TWO GOATS with zidan. What have zidan achieved for real Madrid other than one league title and champions league title in which he scored in the final by playing one game for the season cuz Figo was injured and zidan just join the team that season. CR7 AND MESSI DONT EVEN WORTH THE COMPARISON WITH ZIDAN. ZIDAN WASNT A COMPLETE MIDFIELDER LIKE GERRAD ,KROOS, LAMPARD, MODRIC, ETC THEY CAN ATTACK AND DEFEND VERY WELL HOWEVER NOT SAYING THAT ALL OF THEM ARE BETTER THAN ZIDAN. HOW MANY ASSISTS AND GOALS ZIDAN HAVE FOR CLUBS AND COUNTRY? WHAT IS ZIDAN STYLE OF PLAYING? HIS STYLE IS ATTACK ATTACK. DONT GET ME WRONG, I KNW A MIDFIELDER CAN HAVE A BIG IMPACT ON A GAME WITHOUT ASSISTS AND GOALS AND NOT BELITTLING ZIDAN CUZ HE HAS A SMALL AMOUNT OF GOALS AND ASSISTS IN HIS CAREER. QUESTION WAS ZIDAN THE TYPE OF PLAYER TO DEFEND CONSISTENTLY LIKE KROOS, LAMPARD,GERRARD , MODRIC ,CASEMIERO ,ETC AND FURTHERMORE IF ZIDAN DIDNT ASSISTS AND SCORED, THEN HOW DID HIS TEAM WON KNOWING HE DIDNT HELP OUT A LOT IN DEFENSE. DID ZIDAN DRIBBLE PAST 3 OR MORE PLAYERS CONSISTENTLY ? MARADONA DID IT, MESSI DID , CRYUFF DID IT AND A FEW OTHERS DID IT CONSISTENTLY. DONT LET RUclips VIDEOS FOOL YOU CUZ IT IS ZIDAN CAREER HIGHLIGHTS YOU WATCHING AND U WOULD HAVE SEEN VIDEOS OF HIM DRIBBLING PAST PLAYERS BUT ITS NOT ONE SEASON AFTER SEASONS HE DID THOSE CONSISTENTLY, POINT IS ZIDAN IS GREAT BUT NOT AS GREAT AND CONSISTENT AS U THINK ,HENRY WAS EXCEPTIONAL AND SPECIAL. HOW ZIDAN MUST BE GREATEST AND YET HE HAS NEVER BEEN CONSISTENT PLAYING CLUB FOOTBALL HOWEVER HE PLAYED WELL IN TOURNAMENT FOR FRANCE WITH A VERY VERY STRONG BALANCE TEAM. ZIDAN DONT SCORED LOTS OF GOAL AND ASSISTS SO WHO DEFENDED IN MIDFIELD FOR FRANCE? ZIDAN PLAYING FOR REAL MADRID SHOWS HIM UP A LOT AND THAT IS WHY REAL MADRID TEAM STRUGGLE CUZ OF ZIDAN AND HIS DESIRE FOR ATTACKING ONLY BUT THE FRENCH TEAM HAD EXCEPTIONAL MIDFIELDERS. I WON'T EVEN COMPARE HIM WITH THE TWO GOATS BUT I CAN COMPARE HIM WITH HENRY WHO IS GREATER THAN HIM. FURTHERMORE ZIDAN WAS LUCKY IN 1998 CUZ RONALDO WAS VERY SICK AND HE WASN'T EXCEPTIONAL IN THAT TOURNAMENT OTHER THAN THE TWO GOALS HE SCORED
Best I ever saw with both feet. His balance, control, change of direction, strength, quickness with either foot on the ground and the other on the ball is unmatched ( only seen video of Pele in his prime)
Don't forget Shevchenko, Henry, Maldini, Totti, Nesta, Del Piero, Bergkamp, Batistuta, C.Lopez, Crespo, Zanetti, Cafu, Pires, Seedorf and the list goes on
I guess Ur closing Ur eyes when Messi is playing lol.....there are so many players that are magical, Zidane is just different, but that doesn't mean that Messi doesn't have magic or would u also say Ronaldinho doesn't have magic
Greatest player I've seen with the ball. It is as simple as that. Messi can retrieve the accolade as the greatest of all time I have no problem with that. But if I had to be completely honest and say who is the greatest I've seen with the ball and generally play football? It would have to be zidane. He was mesmerising and yes I am someone who has seen him throughout his career. Euro 2000 he was just unstoppable. He was someone who made it seem like he was almost levitating above the ground ever so slightly as if he was gliding through the pitch. It is as if he had silk socks in each foot while the others wore their workman boots on the pitch. He could do everything with his stronger or weaker foot if there even was a weaker foot. To put it simple he had this velvet touch in everything he did as if his 5 yard pass was just so much more flattering than when someone else did it. Just oozed confidence and composure as well as skill and flair. One of the greatest of all time definitely in the top 10 bracket of greatest to ever touch a ball on a pitch.
Anybody playing with a Zidane would look amazing and that even includes players like Bergkamp would not be at his level. Zidane was a match winner at the very highest level Bergkamp was not.
This man plays football like none other player Watch him analyzed him He doesn't play football like others because he uses his brain Everything he does is perfect ✌
+clevens pierre paul Cruijff was a fantastic player but he blew it at a world cup final and came off second best in that game. That is the fundamental difference between Cruijff/Messi and Zidane. Maradona, Pele and Zidane were on par and made differences at world cup finals. Messi has one more opportunity to do it.
Zidanes ability to make the most impossible things look so easy is unequalled. His movement with the ball brought on vertigo for the opposition, so naturally illusive.
IPPO CLASH ROYALE well todays worlds best players like Ronaldo,Messi are no natch to the talents of Ronaldo Lima,Zidane,Ronaldinho,these guys played football with ease,did unbelievable skills effortlessly like magic.
Won everything as a player and always made his team mates better and understood the tactics amazingly and after all that won the champions three years in a row as a coach. Just a legend.
We had the art of Ronaldinho, Real had and has the elegance of Zidane, thank you Madritistas who applauded Ronnie, I will applaud Zidane for every piece of art he does 👏
People often underestimate how psychological football is. The hardest bit is to be able to support the pressure of the great games and to pull out your best football then. Many of the best players who score like machines, are actually not able to do this and are nowhere to be seen in finals or decisive games. This is why I hate what the ballon d'or has become: a stats driven award which pushes players to try and score as many goals as they can in random games, in order to make their stats look impressive. It says nothing about the palyers' mental strengths and ability to lead a team. That's exactly what made Zidane special; the kind of player who lifts up and leads a team in the decisive games. To some extent this is also what he managed to do as a coach.
A l epoque je me rendait pas compte de ses gestes venus d ailleurs! Aujourd hui je me rend compte que tous ses gestes nous les reverons jamais chez un seul homme!!!
Never get tired of all these clips. One of the few greatest players to have touched the ball. And that Champions League Finals goal has to be the best in history of the game.
THE REAL GOAT OF ALL TIME. F*** THE HATERS! HE IS IRREPLACEABLE IN THE WORLD OF FOOTBALL. NO ONE WAS MORE GRACEFUL WITH THE BALL THAN HIM. I MISS HIM PLAYING THE BEAUTIFUL GAME.
He was the best in the best period of football of all time to me. So many legends played at the same time. Zidane, Ronaldo (Brazilian), Raul, Figo, Beckham, Roberto Carlos, Gerrard, Lampard, Scholes, Giggs, Nedved, Del Pierro, Ibrahimovic, Totti, Batistuta, Kaka, Maldini, Nesta, Shevchenko, Ronaldinho, Casillas, Iniesta, Xavi, Puyol, Kluivert, Rivaldo, Henry, Bergkamp, Kahn, Cannavaro, Eto'o, Rooney, Robben, Sneijder, van Nistelrooy, David Villa, Lahm, Inzaghi, Seedorf, Makelele, Drogba, Buffon, Thuram, Pirlo, Zanetti, .. All of them could compete for Ballon d'Or ... Almost makes me cry when I think back of this period
i think after years of training on another planet with a different laws of gravity you would be 2% as good as Zinedine Zidane in manipulating Earths laws of physics when you return
This the best zidane video ever..I have seen more than 20 on zidane..it's just above all..just like zizou. .loved..every element of his play and the commentary. .simply wowowow
My favourite player ever ever ever ever. Not one dive. Pure skill. Pure elegance. Even his name is graceful as fuck. Mesmerising to watch and impossible to get the ball off.
Ronaldinho: neymar Maradona :Messi Zidane : ??? I have never seen any player like zidane,he is so unique player,most elegant footballer ever in history Miss u zidane,first time i watch him in tv,world cup final and his last performance,but i really enjoy to watch him in that night Sorry for my bad english
Thank You so much for this one. Zizou was an artist during his playing days, always putting a smile on my face every time I see him play. Much love all the way from South Africa.
j'avais les larmes aux yeux... le montage, les témoignages et la musique de fond sont bien agencés et nous font réaliser à quel point le temps passe vite... j'étais tout le temps excité quand je voyais Zidane sur la feuille de match... je savais que j'allais assister à une oeuvre d'artiste...
Zidane is the John Wick of Soccer. ZZ is a man of focus, commitment & sheer will. I once saw him dodge 5 defenders with a single football. Zidane = Most Elegant Magical Soccer Player.
After the friendly match France v. Russia in 2002, Di Stéfano met his old friend and teammate Francisco Gento, and said to him: "Did you watch the game yesterday on tv? That Zidane is a hell of a player!!"
When both Pele and Maradona tell you he is a legend you take their word for it.

This man is not just playing football, he is making art. Video is impressive also, it should be showed in short film festival, thanks.
talha emre thank you very much 🙏🙏🙏
The player that came back from retirement and took his whole country to the world cup final
Don't get me wrong he was 34 by that time and was playing against probably the greatest era of football players there was at that time
That's what set him apart from any other player he perform not only in big games but he did it constantly all throughout his career
That's why i consider him the greatest ever not only because he won everything in football a great achievement yes
But when you watch him play he entertains you
You never know which moves he gonna do next and he does all of it effortless with elegance pure beauty
He plays football as it should be
He's the definition of FOOTBALL

First of all, 34 is not exactly that old for an attacking midfielder. It's not like he was 40. His job was to assist and create chances, not to run 20 km.

In the Final France faced a Brazil team which was in a huge disarray because Ronaldo was unfit.
The final is the one thing that makes or breaks Zidane's entire myth.
The only football player that put a smile on my face whenever i see him play
It was just a pure beauty to watch him such elegance he makes everything effortless so simple so easy for him
I don't know but there is something about this man that sets him apart from all other footballers something unique that he bring to us there will never be another player like zizou
The greatest player ever for me :)
Êl Padrïnø truly the greatest...it was like watching a great painter or musician...it was art
Êl Padrïnø i think Iniesta is close . In terms of there technique & the way they play the ball with ease
I agree because nowadays the only player that truly come close to zizou is probably iniesta
Iniesta doesn't come close at all. Ozil was the one who came somewhat close but even he fell off.
I think first touch and intelligence are making him different from others. He is like inestia with better intelligence plus shooting of Steven Gerrad and much stronger.
I'm actually in tears...
I have never seen a player like Zidane. He's the greatest player in history.
YES HE IS !!!
Zidane is Unique
Maradona
Yes , zidane is the greatest midfielders ever, and in top 5 of all times , but He is not the best
@@user-oc3my9sr2n from when on you started watching football??....ever heard of players like tostao, zico,revilnho, Gianni Rivera,boby Charlton,Johan Cruyff,hiedigutti....and from this generation players like pirlo and ronaldinho ,Kaka, modric
The player of the century
no words can describe this man , he is just beyond compare. "Merci beaucoup Zidane!"
Good joke. Not even top 20 all time.
@@michaeltrumph121 Literally top 5 but ok.
@@luangj5928
He ain't even top 10, let alone top 5.
He ranks between 20 and 30 all time.
Ronaldo, Ronaldinho, Pele, Maradona, Cruyff, Zico, Messi, CR7, Best, Baggio, Van Basten, M.Laudrup, Di Stefano, Best, Del Piero, Totti, Pirlo, Xavi, Iniesta, Romario, Rivaldo, Kaka, Henry, Platini, Bergkamp - all are better than Zidane
@@michaeltrumph121 u r saying that rivaldo, Xavi , Iniesta,kaka all are better than him? U should watch football first..the only player can be better than him is only Maradona...only Maradona can be compared with his skill, individual performance in big stages and world cup and also world cup trophy wise.. other than nobody can come close to zizu .
@@anikdey4938
I've watched him live, he is not as good as those I mentioned.
And what individual performance in the big stages ?! He barely showed up, apart from Euro 2000.
Legend says that one Zidane borns every 1000 years.
Im the next
No need to argue, he's the greatest player of all time in the modern era... A magnificent player in every game he played, and a true god in the greatest matchs... World cup, Euro and Champions League, almost by himself in less than 4 years...
Who has done that in the modern era, a single man, dominating a sport? Not even iniesta come close. Who has raise an entire country, wining everything, against the best players...
No one has his touch, with both feet, vision, elegance and intelligence... He never needed the speed of a messi or the muscles of a Ronaldo, he was just above, insanely gifted. Nobody could take the ball from him, it was surreal sometimes, inventing every game a new skill, a new move, like a symphony played with his feet...
He was out of this sport, out of this world, a privilege to witness, anybody who really watched him, and knows football, deep inside, knows he was the best of all time, the best in every league he played, the best in the continent, and the world.
What he did, has not been done since... Skills beyond imagination..
Thanks for the vid btw! ;-)
"The body of a gladiator with the grace of a ballerina" Alfredo Di Stefano,
MtNikota Absolutely true it was truly a joy to watch him play..he turned sport to art.
"Nobody could take the ball from him.." < that is so very true!! Crazy
Agreed. Special player. I haven't seen coordination like his. He was not normal. It was a pleasure and honour to experience him playing the beautiful game more beautifully than any other player.
wow, beautiful message , thanks for zinedine. he deserve it, he realise my dream when i was a child
Ronaldo was called phenomenon, than Zidane is that force that unleashes Ronaldo. Zidane's play is all about excerting influence on the pitch, both team mates and opponents fall spell to the force he unleashed. He is like a hypnotizer, he is not the fastest nor is he the strongest, but he definitely knows how to manipulate the ball the most natural and non-intrusive way. I always wonder how can he control the ball so well with so few touches, nobody can do that except him!
tears in my eyes watching this...he is such a class player.
breathtaking footballer.
elegance, vision, skill, unique dribbling, left foot/right foot finish, long range shots. OMG.. he is out of this world!!!!!! Such a great personality as well!! That son of a b**** materazzi.... he caused such disgraceful international exit for such a legend... Italy will never win a world cup again!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Class, elegance, technique, genius, control, vision, essentiality, wisdom, courage, authority, poetry, art and pure beauty.. Zinedine Zidane with Michael Laudrup and Ronaldinho (de Assis Moreira) were the best who stroked a ball over a field of green grass. Thank you from the bottom of my heart and forever (a football lover)
I'm not a footballer, but I can see greatness, such natural talent, so graceful with the ball. That headbutt only makes him an even bigger legend. His emotions truly rounds him out as a human being, the fire within.
No he visto todavía un jugador tan elegante y plástico en mi vida. Era arte puro. Un genio una delicia verlo jugar.
This guy made me watch football growing up
without any doubt Zinedine Zidane means pure football. He's my best footballer all the time. Merci Zizou!
He's not even top 20 of all time.

No, I'm just objective

@@antoninhosoto8452
I have arguments to support my case, you are just a fanboy.
My favourite player ever.
I remember media saying Zidane would be remembered for the headbut above all else ..... that didn't happen :) Greatest player of all time, complete player.
To this day every time I see a video of this brilliant man I get wet eyes. I only had privilege of watching him for last 3 seasons of his career but to me those were the 3 greatest seasons I have even watched. To me he is the essence of what football is soposed to be. Doing everything with finesse, not forcing anything, everything just seemed natural to him. And at the end of the day he always remained humble deep down. At the end of the day he was just a man and this is what I loved about him. He had his flaws but noone else could make me feel the way he did when he played and to me this is the most important. He never scored 50+ in a season, he was never the star guys like Messi and CR are nowdays being everywhere in media, yet more (grown) people loved him than any modern superstar. Maby he is not the best ever but for me he will always be the greatest becous at the end of the day it is not about all the goals and the trophyes but about all the emotions that the game brings. Football is the beautiful game and Zizu was personification of that.
Man I am really missing the early to mid 2000s, to me that was the golden age of football with geniouses like Zizu, Ronaldinho, Ronaldo, Raul and everyone else...
true story
Zizou - Best Player of Football history. He is an artist of football
Best Midfielder in the history.
One of the best Goal Striker in the history.
Best playmaker ever in the history.
One of the best captain in the history.
One of the best coach in the history.
In a nutshell, BEST Footballer in the history.
The One and Only ZIZOU.
Best midfielder and playmaker of historie
not best striker not best captain
Jean Ditou agree and i'm a die hard Zidane fan
Best control in history
You see Iniesta .his n'est than zzzidan
@@yabe84 but definitely the best manager too
Thank you Zidane for the memories you truly wer the most gifted, elegant, tactically brilliant player I have ever seen....
He is like Roger Federer.
He makes it look so easy......
la même classe ^^
Well put
Two maestros
he is one of only eight players to win UCL, WC and Ballon Dor. Not to mention knocking Brazil out of two world cup finals in incredible style, outplaying them almost single handedly displaying unmatched ball control and passing at that level and during this era, not to mention winning almost every major tournament he has entered, not to mention being the stellar player in any team he entered. He is the only 1 to do it ALL. He won every single accolade there is in football and was always the integral and best player in any team he ever entered, he plays better the harder the challenge. when he is most needed he shows up. not to mention he won trophies in France, Italy and Spain. Not to mention, he came back from retirement at 34! and displayed one of the most beautiful world cup displays by any player in an impossible road to the the WC final vs elite opposition. You couldnt write a better film, Messi and Ronaldo can only dream now, they will never achieve what zidane has unfortunately., Zizou is the greatest of all time and most people who truly know about football, i.e. coaches, commentators, players could well agree. So many people have said 'he is the greatest of the modern era' and the 1990s-2000 era is the greatest era in football hence ZZ is the best ever. These younguns dont fully understand football, its not how many you score, its when you score and who you score against. Zizou has scored and destroyed 90% of all the big teams, Barca, Juventus, Spain, Italy, England, Portugal, Man utd, Brazil, Bayern Munich, etc etc, dont even get me started on his managerial career. Case closed.
he has never been better than Brazil ronaldo. 1998 world cup ronaldo was sick and Brazil ronaldo would have easily won the world cup if he wasn't sick. Zidane is a great tournament player and he is also a very elegant player. how many years he consistently perform very well for his clubs? don't mistake very elegant for being a better player
@@pensivevalues1949 Brazilian Ronaldo was a striker, Zidane was the complete midfielder who could score incredible goals. It's different.
I can tell that Henry is the greatest ever arsenal player , greatest ever English league player and greatest ever French player. Zidan is not a complete midfield player cuz he is not known to do defend a lot unlike KROOS, casemiero ,Gerrard and MODRIC WHO ARE VERY GREAT ATTACKERS AND DEFENDERS. HOW MANY ASSISTS ZIDAN HAVE FOR HIS CLUB TEAM? ZIDAN WAS VERY INCONSISTENT PLAYING CLUB FOOTBALL AND YES I KNW HE SCORED A BEAUTIFUL GOAL IN THE FINAL FOR REAL MADRID BUT WAT DID HE DO FOR REAL MADRID SINCE SCORING THAT BEAUTIFUL GOAL? ZIDAN ONLY PLAYED WELL IN TOURNAMENT FOR FRANCE BUT DIDINT PLAY WELL CONSISTENTLY PLAYING CLUB FOOTBALL UNLIKE HENRY HE WAS A BEAST FOR ARSENAL, BARCELONA AND FRANCE. HENRY IN TOP 2 GREATEST EVER STRIKER AND MY TOP 5 GREATEST EVER PLAYER. R9 WAS UNBELIEVABLE BEFORE HIS KNEE INJURY BUT SINCE HIS KNEE INJURY AND LIFESTYLE HE WASN'T D SAME AND HE WAS INCONSISTENT. IF IF IF CANT USE TO DETERMINE GREATEST AND R9 ACHIEVEMENTS SPEAK FOR HIMSELF AND ITS SAD TO KNW HOW HE COULD HAVE ACHIEVED MORE JUST LIKE RONALDINHO. IS ZIDAN THE GREATEST EVER REAL MADRID PLAYER? IS ZIDAN THE GREATEST EVER LA LIGA PLAYER ? ZIDAN WAS EXCEPTIONAL GREAT FOR FRANCE IN TOURNAMENT AND HE WAS PLAYING ON A GREAT FRENCH TEAM. ZIDAN RARELY DEFEND AND ALSO DONT SCORE OR ASSISTS LOTS OF GOALS IN TOURNAMENTS FOR FRANCE OR PLAYING CLUB FOOTBALL, SO HOW ZIDAN SINGLE HANDEDLY CARRY FRANCE TEAM? I AGREE THAT HE WAS THE STAND OUT PLAYER .LOOK AT MESSI ,HE SCORED , ASSISTS AND DRIBBLE A LOT IN TOURNAMENT FOR ARGENTINA AND ALSO FOR BARCELONA AND THAT IS WAT SINGLE HANDEDLY MEAN AND ITS SAME WITH MBAPPE AND FRANCE CUZ HE IS DOING A LOT OF GOAL SCORING, ASSISTS AND DRIBBLING. TELL ME HOW MUCH ASSIST ,GOAL AND TACKLES ZIDAN MADE IN TOURNAMENTS FOR FRANCEAND CLUB FOOTBALL? AS ME SAY HE WAS CONSISTENTLY OUTSTANDING IN TOURNAMENTS FOR FRANCE ONLY BUT HE WAS INCONSISTENT PLAYING VERY WELL FOR HID CLUBS, YES ,YES WE KNW HE SCORED THAT BEAUTIFUL GOAL IN THE CHAMPION LEAGUE FINAL BUT WHAT ELSE HE DID FOR REAL MADRID THROUGHOUT THE YEARS? HENRY DEMOLISH A TOUGH ENGLISH LEAGUE , WENT TO BARCELONA AND PLAYED WELL CONSISTENTLY AND ALSO DID THE SAME FOR FRANCE , HENRY IS SPECIAL AND ONLY A FEW IS ABOVE HIM LIKE MESSI, CR7 ,PELE MARADONA.WHO IS THE GREATSST EVER ENGLISH LEAGUE PLAYER,?WHO IS THE GREATEST EVER ARSENAL PLAYER? HENRY IS THE GREATEST EVER FRENCH PLAYER.
Henry is better than zidan so don't compare THE TWO GOATS with zidan. What have zidan achieved for real Madrid other than one league title and champions league title in which he scored in the final by playing one game for the season cuz Figo was injured and zidan just join the team that season. CR7 AND MESSI DONT EVEN WORTH THE COMPARISON WITH ZIDAN. ZIDAN WASNT A COMPLETE MIDFIELDER LIKE GERRAD ,KROOS, LAMPARD, MODRIC, ETC THEY CAN ATTACK AND DEFEND VERY WELL HOWEVER NOT SAYING THAT ALL OF THEM ARE BETTER THAN ZIDAN. HOW MANY ASSISTS AND GOALS ZIDAN HAVE FOR CLUBS AND COUNTRY? WHAT IS ZIDAN STYLE OF PLAYING? HIS STYLE IS ATTACK ATTACK. DONT GET ME WRONG, I KNW A MIDFIELDER CAN HAVE A BIG IMPACT ON A GAME WITHOUT ASSISTS AND GOALS AND NOT BELITTLING ZIDAN CUZ HE HAS A SMALL AMOUNT OF GOALS AND ASSISTS IN HIS CAREER. QUESTION WAS ZIDAN THE TYPE OF PLAYER TO DEFEND CONSISTENTLY LIKE KROOS, LAMPARD,GERRARD , MODRIC ,CASEMIERO ,ETC AND FURTHERMORE IF ZIDAN DIDNT ASSISTS AND SCORED, THEN HOW DID HIS TEAM WON KNOWING HE DIDNT HELP OUT A LOT IN DEFENSE. DID ZIDAN DRIBBLE PAST 3 OR MORE PLAYERS CONSISTENTLY ? MARADONA DID IT, MESSI DID , CRYUFF DID IT AND A FEW OTHERS DID IT CONSISTENTLY. DONT LET RUclips VIDEOS FOOL YOU CUZ IT IS ZIDAN CAREER HIGHLIGHTS YOU WATCHING AND U WOULD HAVE SEEN VIDEOS OF HIM DRIBBLING PAST PLAYERS BUT ITS NOT ONE SEASON AFTER SEASONS HE DID THOSE CONSISTENTLY, POINT IS ZIDAN IS GREAT BUT NOT AS GREAT AND CONSISTENT AS U THINK ,HENRY WAS EXCEPTIONAL AND SPECIAL. HOW ZIDAN MUST BE GREATEST AND YET HE HAS NEVER BEEN CONSISTENT PLAYING CLUB FOOTBALL HOWEVER HE PLAYED WELL IN TOURNAMENT FOR FRANCE WITH A VERY VERY STRONG BALANCE TEAM. ZIDAN DONT SCORED LOTS OF GOAL AND ASSISTS SO WHO DEFENDED IN MIDFIELD FOR FRANCE? ZIDAN PLAYING FOR REAL MADRID SHOWS HIM UP A LOT AND THAT IS WHY REAL MADRID TEAM STRUGGLE CUZ OF ZIDAN AND HIS DESIRE FOR ATTACKING ONLY BUT THE FRENCH TEAM HAD EXCEPTIONAL MIDFIELDERS. I WON'T EVEN COMPARE HIM WITH THE TWO GOATS BUT I CAN COMPARE HIM WITH HENRY WHO IS GREATER THAN HIM. FURTHERMORE ZIDAN WAS LUCKY IN 1998 CUZ RONALDO WAS VERY SICK AND HE WASN'T EXCEPTIONAL IN THAT TOURNAMENT OTHER THAN THE TWO GOALS HE SCORED
Man, i miss him so much. My favorite player since i was a child
Controle de bola excepcional. O maior jogador europeu de todos os tempos sem dúvida nenhuma.
The greatest talent in history....off both wings too...
He was so elegant with a absolutely clean way to play
clean headbutts
Best I ever saw with both feet. His balance, control, change of direction, strength, quickness with either foot on the ground and the other on the ball is unmatched ( only seen video of Pele in his prime)
Richard B it’s funny even watching him smash left footed goals too
Definitely one of my Alllll time favorite players
I was there when Zidane scored his goal in the 2002 CL Final. Greatest player of the 21st century.
Not even top 5
Lmao Iniesta Xavi Messi Ronaldo Ronaldinho R9 all existed. DON'T let nostalgia blind you
Don't forget Shevchenko, Henry, Maldini, Totti, Nesta, Del Piero, Bergkamp, Batistuta, C.Lopez, Crespo, Zanetti, Cafu, Pires, Seedorf and the list goes on
@@fuzailimran5458 shut the fuck up punk! Zidane is the best among others
Fuzail Imran ahah the most funny thing is that he was better than all the players you cite
He was just magnificent. Master.
I never saw Messi or CR7 do the things Zizou did with the ball.
I guess Ur closing Ur eyes when Messi is playing lol.....there are so many players that are magical, Zidane is just different, but that doesn't mean that Messi doesn't have magic or would u also say Ronaldinho doesn't have magic
Still haven't seen such exquisite technique from anyone.
+baggabliss
You are joking.
Bergkamp was skillful and technical but nowhere near the level of Zidane.
Michael Laudrup
You missed out on Andres Iniesta then
Bergkamp, ozil, iniesta, xavi, pirlo etc
@Uncle Bono quit it
Greatest player I've seen with the ball. It is as simple as that. Messi can retrieve the accolade as the greatest of all time I have no problem with that. But if I had to be completely honest and say who is the greatest I've seen with the ball and generally play football? It would have to be zidane. He was mesmerising and yes I am someone who has seen him throughout his career. Euro 2000 he was just unstoppable. He was someone who made it seem like he was almost levitating above the ground ever so slightly as if he was gliding through the pitch. It is as if he had silk socks in each foot while the others wore their workman boots on the pitch. He could do everything with his stronger or weaker foot if there even was a weaker foot. To put it simple he had this velvet touch in everything he did as if his 5 yard pass was just so much more flattering than when someone else did it. Just oozed confidence and composure as well as skill and flair. One of the greatest of all time definitely in the top 10 bracket of greatest to ever touch a ball on a pitch.
Imagin Bergkamp and Zidane in the same team
Anybody playing with a Zidane would look amazing and that even includes players like Bergkamp would not be at his level.
Zidane was a match winner at the very highest level Bergkamp was not.
bighands69 bergkamp not a game winner? Haha watch wc 98 vs Argentina
No
@@bighands69 Zidane played in great clubs like JUVE and Madrid however Bergkamp took arsenal which was a mid-table boring club and made it champion
i think thats not effective,just like debruyne and ozil in the same team
No hay palabras para definir lo que es Zidane simplemente Un gigante Una LEYENDA VIVIENTE!!!
Era Arte completo el fútbol de Zidane
He was football professor, he had wonderful dribbling and he was leader! One of the greatest in football history!
This man plays football like none other player
Watch him analyzed him
He doesn't play football like others because he uses his brain
Everything he does is perfect ✌
Êl Padrïnø I think johan cruyf was smarter
+clevens pierre paul
Cruijff was a fantastic player but he blew it at a world cup final and came off second best in that game. That is the fundamental difference between Cruijff/Messi and Zidane.
Maradona, Pele and Zidane were on par and made differences at world cup finals. Messi has one more opportunity to do it.
This video gave me goosebumps. I wish I got to see him play more in his prime
Zizou is fantastic, the one of the best player of all time, players as zidane is rare, now.... thanks mister zidane
Definitely the player with the most Class to have play the game !
Zidanes ability to make the most impossible things look so easy is unequalled. His movement with the ball brought on vertigo for the opposition, so naturally illusive.
When this man touches the ball everything can happen
He's such an elegance classy player to watch
This is art
F16 F16F16 trank you very much 🙏
The prophet of football
Le prophète n existe pas, Zizou si .
this is football
IPPO CLASH ROYALE well todays worlds best players like Ronaldo,Messi are no natch to the talents of Ronaldo Lima,Zidane,Ronaldinho,these guys played football with ease,did unbelievable skills effortlessly like magic.
Le meilleur de tous les temps selon mon humble personne. 😭😭😭
Pour moi aussi c'est le meilleur joueur de tout les temps
This is everything! Transcends sport and is just brilliant movement.
Won everything as a player and always made his team mates better and understood the tactics amazingly and after all that won the champions three years in a row as a coach. Just a legend.
We had the art of Ronaldinho, Real had and has the elegance of Zidane, thank you Madritistas who applauded Ronnie, I will applaud Zidane for every piece of art he does 👏
SwaggyFaija Guys like you are hard to find these days! RESPECT!
Those were the good times when football was art with Zidane and Ronaldinho, now we get the repetitive boring nonsense of Messi and CRon...
What a man, what a player, what a legacy...

This is the best Zidane tribute on RUclips by far. Thank you 👍
This is great video. Adding the commentary made it for me the best compilation I have seen so far.

Zidane era uma pedra no sapato do Brasil.. Love you zizooouuu #Brasil #RJ
Who is still watching this video in 2k19 the best Zidane video ever.the greatest players who step foot in the football field.
People often underestimate how psychological football is. The hardest bit is to be able to support the pressure of the great games and to pull out your best football then. Many of the best players who score like machines, are actually not able to do this and are nowhere to be seen in finals or decisive games. This is why I hate what the ballon d'or has become: a stats driven award which pushes players to try and score as many goals as they can in random games, in order to make their stats look impressive. It says nothing about the palyers' mental strengths and ability to lead a team. That's exactly what made Zidane special; the kind of player who lifts up and leads a team in the decisive games. To some extent this is also what he managed to do as a coach.
Zidane meant so much to me growing up... As kids we would stay up really late to watch him... The greatest player I've ever seen! A true blessing
the excellence and elegance of zidane are just human kind heritage. A true gift for those who pursue greatness
O Melhor Meia Da História, Mestre Zizou.
A l epoque je me rendait pas compte de ses gestes venus d ailleurs! Aujourd hui je me rend compte que tous ses gestes nous les reverons jamais chez un seul homme!!!
He made football music of love❣️🌹
Simply the best.. unbelievable.. the football magician... such a joy to watch..
Never get tired of all these clips. One of the few greatest players to have touched the ball. And that Champions League Finals goal has to be the best in history of the game.
Zidane 😍
Merci beaucoup Zizou , tu es le plus élégant dans ton art avec une remarquable technique !
He used to be outstanding as a Player, we hope he will continue to be outstanding as a Coach. God Bless ZiZou
This aged very well indeed.
Merci beaucoup Zidane pour tout ce que tu nous a apporté. Tu as fait grandir l’âme de beaucoup de gens crois moi.
THE REAL GOAT OF ALL TIME. F*** THE HATERS! HE IS IRREPLACEABLE IN THE WORLD OF FOOTBALL. NO ONE WAS MORE GRACEFUL WITH THE BALL THAN HIM. I MISS HIM PLAYING THE BEAUTIFUL GAME.
He was the best in the best period of football of all time to me. So many legends played at the same time.
Zidane, Ronaldo (Brazilian), Raul, Figo, Beckham, Roberto Carlos, Gerrard, Lampard, Scholes, Giggs, Nedved, Del Pierro, Ibrahimovic, Totti, Batistuta, Kaka, Maldini, Nesta, Shevchenko, Ronaldinho, Casillas, Iniesta, Xavi, Puyol, Kluivert, Rivaldo, Henry, Bergkamp, Kahn, Cannavaro, Eto'o, Rooney, Robben, Sneijder, van Nistelrooy, David Villa, Lahm, Inzaghi, Seedorf, Makelele, Drogba, Buffon, Thuram, Pirlo, Zanetti, .. All of them could compete for Ballon d'Or ...
Almost makes me cry when I think back of this period
Dont forget Deco and Rui Costa and Crespo and Vieri
I dream of being even 1% as good as Zidane.
A Random Ambivert ..work hard my friend
Croie en toi mais ne choisis pas le football c'est bouché. Je suis au niveau Zidane mais dans ma spécialité secrète grace a Zizou.
i think after years of training on another planet with a different laws of gravity you would be 2% as good as Zinedine Zidane in manipulating Earths laws of physics when you return
I'm not enjoying just football, I'm enjoying something else too I can't even describe .. something like Art
This the best zidane video ever..I have seen more than 20 on zidane..it's just above all..just like zizou. .loved..every element of his play and the commentary. .simply wowowow
So long time find a player like a Zidane... Master of art.. perfect playmaker!!!
My favourite player ever ever ever ever. Not one dive. Pure skill. Pure elegance. Even his name is graceful as fuck. Mesmerising to watch and impossible to get the ball off.

j'avais les larmes aux yeux... le montage, les témoignages et la musique de fond sont bien agencés et nous font réaliser à quel point le temps passe vite... j'étais tout le temps excité quand je voyais Zidane sur la feuille de match... je savais que j'allais assister à une oeuvre d'artiste...
Seems so relax when the ball comes to him, everything it seems to be easy for him just caresses the ball so much finesss 😍
