NAPLES, MAY 11 - The scene of Zinedine Zidane's headbutt on Marco Materazzi in the 2006 World Cup final between Italy and France, reproduced in terracotta by San Gregorio Armeno crib craftsman Genny Di Virgilio, was bought by the former national team and Inter Milan defender himself, who was on holiday in Naples for a tour.
"Materazzi,' Di Virgilio told ANSA, 'lingered in my workshop for a long time asking a thousand questions about the art of the nativity scene, but when I showed him the headpiece, which I had created some time ago, he burst out laughing and wanted to buy it, accepting only a lucky horn as a gift'.
