Freakin' sweet headbutt, though. You can be sure that the Italian said something racist, either against Zidane (Algerian) or one of his many black teammates... The reason that this is likely is because Italian soccer teams are massively racist, to the point that they throw flares at black players, even if they are playing for the team that the fans are supporting... Madness!

You are making the assumption that the Italian defender knew how to insult Zidane in French or that Zidane knew Italian. Also it is unfair to say that Italian soccer teams are massievly racist. The fact of the matter is that racism is a very large problem everywhere in Europe. Neo-Nazi's control entire sections of stadiums on game day in Germany, France, Italy and England. Black players routienly have banana's thrown at them or serenaded with the sounds of an ape. It is commonly referred to as the monkey chant.
To think the Europeans love to call us racist when such acts very rarely happen anymore here in the states while they happen in every single club match involving an player of african descent over there.
