Sadly, most sports fans in America will remember Zidane as that crazy head-butt dude. It's a terrible, although not undeserved, legacy, since he's always been a hothead. And the fact that the incident was debated for days on cable networks was perverse testimony to the Cup's growing viewership in the U.S., now up to National Basketball Association (NBA) play-off levels. But if American fans watched only the final, they got just a glimpse of a mesmerizing athlete who has hands for feet, as one scout described him. Like all great athletes, his field vision...
