i found in wikipedia's discussion page about Zidane and i found what Materazzi said, that is:
"What's it like to be the captain of a bunch of *******?"
He smashed Materazzi!! What a greatest heroic scene!
He is a REAL HERO of the colored people!

Firstly, there is no basis for accusing Materazzi of being the villain or racist. Why people are suggesting he provoked Zidane is a mystery. There is no evidence to suggest Materazzi did anything wrong. The supposed professional lip readers employed to decipher Materazzi's language are not coming up with a definitive answer as there are many different interpretations of what could have been said floating around. For example, some sources say it was a racist slur by Materazzi while other say it was something about Zidane's mother, sister, and/or wife All we do know is that Materazzi and Zidane were talking back and forth. It could have been Zidane who provoked a verbal response from Materazzi which Zidane hated or it could simply have been a mutual exchange of obscenities. Nobody knows right and anything said is pure speculation based primarily on bias for 1 side over the other. These are things people who say Materazzi "must" have said something are overlooking in their rush to defend Zidane. There is no proof and it is simply a case of finding Materazzi guilty without evidence. Guilty until prven innocence. Simply because you hate someone doesn't mean they are guilty.
Secondly, people who portray Zidane as a normally calm person either do not know his tendencies or overlook the evidence. Zidane has a history of spontaneous violent outbursts on the field including other headbutting instances and stomping on players with intent to injure. .
Thirdly, two wrongs do not make a right and Zidane should have been a bigger man,walked away and not hurt his team. Sticks and stones.

Aren't we all aiming at fair play? Arent the players also carrying banners condemning racism? Its a shame then that players like Materazzi can pass extremely hurtful racist remarks at Zidane and get away with it - and its Zidane who gets the bad press. I wish the press and the public would stand up against racism together and not just show banners which dont really signify anything. The French and the rest of the world should laud the player he is and was ... its not only the last minutes of a persons life that counts. And if you think of it that way, Materazzi's remark is clearly disgusting and would evoke a similar reaction in many citizens of the world. It is sad that there is no real justice in the world ... i do hope Materazzi is brought to justice and the Italians face the shame that they deserve.
There is no reason for the French to not celebrate - its in these times that they should stand behind Zidane and cheer him showing him that they definitely do not support Materazzi's racism and he is welcome home and king. The French are the real heroes and not the cowardly Italians who use such unfair means to provoke players.

just because some people speculate and invent things it doesn't make it to be true, did you hear it from Zidane or Materazzi? So don't talk crap...He is no hero, he's a thug, and he behaved like one, and he has no respect from me...
BTW I don't think that that was what he said to him...people don't know, so they invent things to excuse the actions of a thug...

I thought that may be the reason for his actions. If true, he did the right thing. Materazzi should be banned as a flipping hypocrite.

If it's true, yes! I don't know where the info comes from, and don't know if we can trust it!
For sure, the French players from West Indian and African origins playing in Italy have been confronted with a lot of racism and those words wouldn't really surprise me! I mean those Italians players have been really nasty with Black players.

I wouldn't go that far.He heard something that needed to be nipped in the butt and he did.I'll never forget it,i'm so glad he did it.I wouldn't call him a hero but just a man pushed to far by some stupid inbred insect.

Well all these are rumors so you can't really say that! But I don't think violence is ever an answer.. It doesn't really make u a hero, it just makes u look like an animal

I don't know if that is accurate, but if it is, then that was a good thing for him to do I guess. Although he still should not have done it, if he wasn't red carded, France could have won the cup
