Marco Materazzi
A GENTLEMAN BELIEVING IN PEACE



The World Organization for Peace declared Marco Materazzi Goodwill Ambassador for Peace, after being elected by the Superior Interreligious Council SIC and the Council of Communicators CC, for being an outstanding player in the international football, as he is a person of positive principles committing himself to peace through his popularity and actions in favour of Peace.

When asked about the final controversy in the World Cup 2006 with the big star Zinedine Zidane, Materazzi answered firmly. If I offended him, I will apologize with him but if the audience felt offended by this mistake, then I will talk with Zidane, who is a gentlemen too, and will apologize with the audience. I am a man of honour and Zidane is too, for this reason I think this controversy should end as we both are committed to more important missions and have more to offer to football and to Peace in the world.
