I read an article that he spent his first year of club soccer in France on kitchen duty due to fights with teamates over racial remarks. Its obviously something that he's dealt with his whole life. And when you look at it, chances are that that game was going to penalties with or without Zidane and the result most likely would have been the same. Actually, he got kind of lucky on his earlier PK or there may have never been overtime.
Also, Bartez didn't deserve to win one World Cup, having him go down as a two time winner would not be fair to any other keeper who has two. Watching him play, I don't know how he ever got the status that he had a few years ago as one of the best in the world.
