How The Best Player On The Planet Became INVISIBLE To Scouts

The humbleness of Zidane is something we should all admire.

Zinedine is such an awesome guy. I was able to meet him in Warsaw on the Danone Cup in 2012. He was so nice and was so warm and loving with all the kids, the players and the kids on the stands. He was always my favorite player.

He was football’s depiction of Muhammad Ali - “Move like a butterfly, sting like a bee” Zizou was simply poetry in motion.

Zidane live in a tiny town in the south of France, several friends of mine live there and told me it was common to just casually encounter him doing his morning running routine or simply at the supermarket. A casual legend

Zidane's first touch is 2nd to none. Legend! True when he said his hand is where his feet were supposed to be.

Zizou 🇫🇷🔥 A top 10 football player of all-time. All class. No debate.

I am not a footballer. I am a multi instrumentalist composer. I relate to Zidane.

You’re a phenomenal story teller! I didn’t realize the video had stopped that is how enthralled I was when listening to it. Zidane will always be a Legend.

Hated him after 98 final as a child then saw my fav player R9 play with him at Galacticos. After that it was nothing but RESPECT!

Zidane the headbutt king And the best midfielder 🗣️🔥🔥

Finally a video that football world deserved. The real GOAT football genius

14:19 "kung-fu kicking a fan..." That one was crazy!!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 I bet it was a headline in most of football newspapers back then. I've only started watching Zidane when he was at the end of his career and I was just a child. So, watching this video is really awesome to get to know how humble his career start was and how great he became as a player. Great video,

My favorite player of all time, 1st time seeing him was in 1997 in a friendly between us (South Africa) vs France he came as a sub with Ibrahim Ba, I remember watching him mesmerizing South Africa we were leading the game 1-0 but after they came in they scored 2 quick goals, Zizou assisted both goals, I remember we all called him Zidane Zidane, I followed his career after that, I remember again WC against SA again then Saudi Arabia after that I was sold that he is the best ever, who can forget his Euro 2000 performance especially against Spain and Portugal. Zizou and Henry my best players of all time

I was born and raised in Marseille. My cousin grew up in Zidane's neighborhood. Despite never playing for Olympique de Marseille, he's surely one the most beloved players in Marseille. We all regret that he couldn't play even one season but that's life. Cantona, who was also born and raised in Marseille, played for Marseille in the 90's but he's on the top list of favorite players by fans. He's on my list nonetheless. Zidane is an example for everyone. We know that since he made it, we all can. Maybe not in football but in life in general. He didn't give up, had a slow but improving career and will always be remembered. His temper is known among us. While being chill most of the time, you mustn't mess with his family no matter what.

What a player he was bro! I remember having a Madrid Zidane shirt, iconic! 🔥

Only yesterday someone reminded me that zizu was a late bloomer your timing is impeccable. I love learning the history of these great players.

I remember that head butt and that world cup match he lost. But that guy is a man for protecting his mother's honour against all odds. Nowadays people will call it toxic. I call him honourable he didn't compromise on who he is for anything whether it was a worldcup, admiration or money.

Zidane is one of my favorite players of all time. Most elegant touch ever.

When Zidane headbutted the dude, I knew he was a goat.

Fantastic stuff here once again! Your videos are pure gold! These are aspects of Zidane that are not known to masses. Thanks for sharing all of them. I'm also hoping for a Redondo daily dose some day! Keep going!
