Zidane, by the way, scored France's only goal by falling down without really even being touched. It was a pretty hard head butt (he really put his body into it) and the guy obviously wasn't ready for it.
Actually, it wasn't Zidane who drew the penalty kick, it was another French player, can't remember his name, who was also legitimately fouled in the penalty area in the second half.

Agreed though, that headbutt was vicious, I don't think the guy took a dive at all, I'm sure he was too shocked to do anything at all.
