I was 16 when Zidane headbutted Matarazzi, and I didn’t care about it all that much then. But it’s actually such a fascinating story. “The referees always punish the reaction, never the provocation.” Now contemplating the playbook of retaliation to abuse https://t.co/sR2JiPdm6x

“What I'm saying is I don't think anyone could say anything to me during a World Cup final that would honestly make me headbutt him half to death.” I’d like to hear what women and brown folks think about this, about the retaliation of an immigrant’s son https://t.co/69kT0m7MJV
