Anyway this is an article I found on goal.com:
Materazzi Insult Revealed By Lip-Reader
An Italian lip-reader has claimed to have deciphered the words Marco Materazzi said to Zinédine Zidane that provoked the French star into headbutting the Italian defender in Sunday’s World Cup final.
There have been various rumours circulating about what was said, with Materazzi denying calling Zidane ‘a dirty terrorist’.

According to the BBC, Materazzi said, "I wish an ugly death to you and all your family," and then told Zidane to "go f*** yourself".
The red card meant a sad end to the career of Zidane who retired from football after the game.
Every lip reader and analyst has come out with something different everytime. The only ones who know for sure what was said are Zidane and Materazzi. And Zidane didn't want to disclose what was said, even though it was thought that he was going to.
Edge will rise again...
