More quotes by Zinedine Zidane
We are well aware of the task ahead of us in what will be a very difficult match but which we all dream of playing.
Zinedine Zidane
I was lucky to come from a difficult area. It teaches you not just about football but also life. There were lots of kids from different races and poor families. People had to struggle to get through the day.
Zinedine Zidane
Ronaldinho is total class - a very, very great player. He is quick, powerful, and has extraordinary technical qualities. He is a dribbler but is also a player who can make the play for his teammates. He's not really a No.10, a true organizer. He's more a second attacker who can score goals and has the vision to make them.
Zinedine Zidane
Obviously fashion is a completely different world from football.
Zinedine Zidane
I may have had a lot of luck in my life, but I still need to find a challenge in the game.
Zinedine Zidane
Nobody knows if Zidane is an angel or demon. He smiles like Saint Teresa and grimaces like a serial killer.
Zinedine Zidane
I once cried because I had no shoes to play soccer, but one day, I met a man who had no feet.
Zinedine Zidane
There was huge pressure, especially before the big games. Not many people believed in us, but we believed in ourselves. We wanted to do something good and we did.
Zinedine Zidane
It's only natural to want to select your best players and there is no doubt for me that Paul Scholes is still in a class of his own. He's almost untouchable in what he does. I never tire of watching him play.
Zinedine Zidane
Zidane is unique. The ball flows with him. He is more like a dancer than a football player.
Zinedine Zidane
I am first of all from La Castellane and Marseille.
Zinedine Zidane
Football boots are very technical and have lots of specific requirements.
Zinedine Zidane
I have a need to play intensely every day, to fight every match hard.
Zinedine Zidane
You rarely come across the complete footballer, but Scholes is as close to it as you can get. One of my regrets is that the opportunity to play alongside him never presented itself during my career.
Zinedine Zidane
It's hard to explain but I have a need to play intensely every day, to fight every match hard. And this desire never to stop fighting is something else I learnt in the place where I grew up.
Zinedine Zidane
Ronaldinho is a special player, but Thierry Henry is probably technically the most gifted footballer ever to play the beautiful game.
Zinedine Zidane
The only important thing I have to say is that my father never fought against his country.
Zinedine Zidane
A Mediterranean city is really my culture.
Zinedine Zidane
Messi is the Mozart of football.
Zinedine Zidane
Every day I think about where I come from and I am still proud to be who I am: first, a Kabyle from La Castellane, then an Algerian from Marseille, and then a Frenchman.
