Because I’m obsessed. What did Meterazzi say to him? According to a deaf British lip reader, he said “you’re the son of a terrorist whore.”
The BBC ten o’clock news also reported:
[Meterazzi] then accused him of being a “liar” and wished “an ugly death to you and your family” on the day the Frenchman’s mother had been taken to hospital ill. This was followed by “Go f*** yourself”.
If you’re more on the pro-Italy side of things, check out this game, which I’m sure Zidane would not be pleased with.
Update: The game is down, because people are apparently accessing it too much, or something (my Italian isn’t what it used to be).
the funny thing is that “mortacci tua” (an ugly death to you and your family)is a typical italian insult that i never thought anything about really until i just read it in english. ive never heard “youre the son of a terrorist whore” before, though. that being said, italians arent really known for their racial tolerance, especially when it comes to northern africa. im just saying. i should probably say at the same time, though, that it’s just a reputation, and the majority of italians i have met are open-minded people, just like any nation.
