The soca-style song is about the France national football team's appearance at the 2006 FIFA World Cup Final, especially Zinedine Zidane's headbutt on Marco Materazzi.
After its release, the song spread throughout the world via the Internet and topped the French and Belgian (Wallonia) charts.
[1] The song was written and recorded in half an hour on 10 July 2006,[2] the day after the World Cup Final, and parodies "Zidane y va marquer" by Cauet.
[3] The Lipszyc brothers and Lascombes distributed the song as a joke to about 50 friends over the Internet, and within hours it was playlisted by Skyrock, one of France's largest independent radio stations.
[2] It was released as a one-song CD on 20 July and reached number one on the French charts on 2 August, supplanting "Zidane y va marquer".
