If the program "Bouillon de culture" had not stopped in 2001 Bernard Pivot, a great lover of football, Zinedine Zidane would certainly have asked for the film "Zidane, a portrait of the century 'which is the main actor. Here are a few things around, this might have been given the answers of our famous Zizou national exit questionnaire show. Bernard Pivot: Your favorite word?
Zizou: Pleasure. is to experience and share that feeling as often as possible with the others I started playing football when I was a bushel. In the district of La Castellane, we were a dozen friends. We trained to make the gesture which was unusual, that we demonstrate to others when it would be perfect. That's where I learned most of what I did during my career.
This is also simple word, pushed to its extreme, that best sums up what I felt like many French, July 12, 1998 when I lifted the World Cup after scoring two goals in my head against Brazil.
Now that I quit my career, my pleasure is to take care of those I love. I am pleased to now be fully available for members of my family, especially for my wife Veronique and my four sons Enzo, Luca and Theo Elyaz.
Bernard Pivot: The word you hate?
Zizou: He hath spoken Marco Materrazi against my sister and my mother during the final of the 2006 World Cup. I sincerely regret having responded as I did to Provocation stupid for this player. By this gesture, I know that I have foolishly wasted my dream to finish my career by holding the World Cup. Although nothing was said that with my presence on the ground, we would have won the shootout goals. But what I regret most is my teammates for having abandoned breaking the pact "we live together, we die together" we had spent together to be the rendezvous of July 9. My last game ... Against Italy in the final of the World Cup, the country that taught me so much ... God is sometimes a very good writer, right? As in my farewells to the Bernabeu, I insisted that my whole family is in the stands. I was really excited to have everyone I love around me for this very important moment of my life. That is probably why I reacted so badly to provocations Materrazi. I sincerely hope, though I doubt it, that people, especially young people, will eventually forget unfortunate whim ... (look sad)
Bernard Pivot: Your favorite drug?
Zizou: Victory. It provides the adrenaline rush sometimes impressive and we quickly became addicted. It is from abroad like many French players, first at Juventus and Real, I really realized the importance of winning and the amount of work needed to be done to achieve this goal on a recurring basis. After a difficult start in Italy, following a very heavy physical preparation that I was not used, I had the snap in a game championship against Inter Milan during which I scored two goals. After this match, and instead just went relatively well for me. (Smile)
Bernard Pivot: Your legendary modesty she had to suffer, I want to remind our audience, your extraordinary track record. Whether Blues, with the World Cup 98 and the European Championship of Nations 2000 or in the club with Champions League in 2002, two Scudetti (1997 and 1998) and two English championships (in 2003 and 2007). You have also been individually designated Golden Ball in 1998, Best Player of the Year FIFA in 1998, 2000, 2002, 2003 and finally to finish your career you have with the title of best player in the 2006 World Cup. (Applause from audience)
Bernard Pivot: the sound or noise do you love?
Zizou: The thud of the ball during a bunt or a control wheel led to the sole.
Bernard Pivot: In this regard, on behalf of all football fans, I'm gone, I want to thank you for all the happiness you have given us with these controls, casters, leg trimmings, and other magical set pieces which you have bestowed throughout the eighteen years your career.
Zizou: Thanks ... (embarrassed smile)
Bernard Pivot: Your profanity, blasphemy or favorite swear word?
Zizou: Pu'taing. In Marseilles, in the northern suburbs where I grew up, we use this word like a comma in sentences orally. However, I try not to over use this punctuation before my four children. (Smile)
Bernard Pivot: As Marseille, sorry you have never worn the jersey of OM?
Zizou: OM is and always will be a club very dear to me. Minot, I often went to see at Stade Velodrome change my idol Enzo Francescoli. At that time they called me again or Yazid Yaz. In 1982 I played my first official matches with the club district of the U.S. Saint-Henri then from 1983 to 1987 then I'm SO Septèmes them Valleys. The first turning point in my life occurred at the age of fourteen years when in December 1986, I was called for a three-day CREPS Aix-en-Provence, with the best cadet of the Mediterranean League . I was noticed by a recruiter Cannes, Jean Varraud. Unlike the recruiter OM, He believed in me by bringing me in 1987, at AS Cannes. There I began my training led first by Gilles Rampillon then Jean Fernandez and Guy Lacombe. Marseille and leave my family in 14 years has really been a very difficult period of my life. My determination to succeed was probably forged at that time. I do not want that sacrifice being used to anything. I was really keen to show my father that I could succeed in the thing that I had chosen the school that was not as he hoped.
Bernard Pivot: Man or woman to illustrate a new banknote?
Zizou: Abbé Pierre. Like many people, I am saddened by the death of this man. What I will remember about him is all he has done for others, for the poor. He lived for others, he did it. I had the opportunity to meet and it was very awesome to have someone in front of you so determined. It felt in every word. It's great that someone is gone.
Since 2001, I also try to bring my modest contribution in the fight against poverty as Goodwill Ambassador of UN program for development. With Ronaldo, are held each year since 2003 Match against Poverty, a football game that brings the greatest names in football the funds collected are used to fund projects to fight against poverty worldwide.
Bernard Pivot: The plant, tree or animal in which you want to be reincarnated?
Zidane: A plant from which it would make a drug to treat leukodystrophies. Since 1992, I am godfather ELA European Association against this disease. With the Danone Cup, dictation ELA in schools or on television, I try to enjoy my fame to get people to give money to this association. The leukodystrophies are diseases Genetic serious affecting each week in France, 3 to 6 children (20 to 40 in Europe). This disease, when it occurs, destroys the nerve sheath (myelin) of their central nervous system (brain and spinal cord). When this sheath is damaged, the current does not flow and nerve impulses are interrupted. This leads to loss of these children movements and balance, loss of vision and hearing, and loss of speech and memory: leukodystrophies paralyze so gradually all vital functions. If you want to donate, you can send your checks to ELA, 53 courses Léopold - BP 20267 to 54005 NANCY CEDEX or go on-site www.ela asso.com
Bernard Pivot: What profession you would not like to do?
Zizou: I do not really know ... (he thinks)
Bernard Pivot: Goaltender of the opposing team when you were in a good day, perhaps? (Smile)
Zizou: yes maybe ... (embarrassed laugh) is true as I have not really liked being in the place of the Brazilian goalkeeper Taffarel at the final World Cup 98 Lerverkusen or guardian during the final of the Champions League in 2002 (luster laughter).
Bernard Pivot: not forgetting the English goalkeeper David James in group match at Euro 2004 in which you scored two goals in any end game when you were done 1-0. I also have a small thought for those from Betis Seville in the quarter-finals of the UEFA Cup 96 was watched helplessly as one of your best goals: a volleyed left-footed lob from nearly 40 m!
Bernard Pivot: If God exists, what would you, after your death, to hear you say?
Zizou: As your parents waiting for you there, I am proud of player, man and father you were. I am also, too, very proud of my father and my mother Smail Malika. Including the education he knew me and my brothers Farid, Nordine, Djamel and my sister Lila. Despite difficult times for many months, they have given us very important values, including that of respect to have toward themselves and others. Speaking of respect, I want to clarify once and for all that contrary to what was claimed Mr Gollnisch National Front my father is not a harki. I have nothing against harkis, but my father just was not one. My father is an Algerian, proud of being who has not fought against his country. In my case, I am proud to be both French, Algerian and world citizen. And even if I take it as an honor being still the favorite of the French personality, sometimes it bothers me a little, you take me as a hero during my trip with my family in Algeria during the month Last December, for example. For me, the real heroes are those who save lives.
Bernard Pivot: Thanks for everything Zizou.
Zizou: Thank you. (He gets up to shake hands with Bernard Pivot in a standing ovation, thanking the public for 18 years of "fun" and he likes it or not, for being his hero one evening of July 98!)
