Let me clarify that Zidane is one of my favourite players & i am very happy that he got the award. But frankly i think Cannavaro deserved it more
1 He played every minute of Italy's world cup win.
2 You have to accept that he was the best defender,he had to shoulder huge burden as Nesta missed out.He had to cover up for a sluggish Materazzi,when the side backs overlapped.
Zidane on the other hand played poorly against Korea, Switzerland...missed Togo match..he was god-like vs Spain, Brazil. But was kept quiet vs Portugal & Italy. If I consider the 2 goals in these games that would mean 4 good games , compared to Cannavaro's 7.
Even for the sake of fair play i think Cannavaro should win.Even if Zidane was provoked in the final, still he has 3 yellow & 1 red. Cannavaro has not seen a card !!! Beleive me he hasnt,he is the cleanest player of WC, 690 mins played & no card...for a defender!!The only Italian defender not seeing a card
Do you think he was snubbed as hes a defender ???
