We all knew that Zidane’s head butt during the World Cup Final would go down in history, but did you ever think about the marketing aspects? A French song parodying the event is breaking records (ha ha) in France, and there are several ringtones you can purchase too, all from La Plage Records
I’m not going to translate the whole song, but here’s the chorus:
Zidane il l’a frappé, Zidane il l’a tapé (Coup de boule!)
Zidane he hit him, Zidane he slapped him (Head butt!)
Laura,
Well, it is
always good to have a sense of humor about these things.
You will like this, je pense!
Maybe your french site would appreciate it, though I realize that is not what it is for. 🙂

That is very funny, thanks!
It is such “topicality” that
makes teaching French contemporary culture such a rewarding experience.
