In MyMemeCards, the meme card game, “Zizou chokbar” is a rare card of the Memes FR pack, number 1768 of the collection, and the 753rd best-known meme of its 3493 cards. Here is what the meme means, where it comes from, and how to get its card.
What does the “Zizou chokbar” meme mean?
“Chokbar” is French slang for shocked or stunned. Paired with Zizou, Zinédine Zidane’s nickname, it evokes the reaction of someone who sees a gesture so beautiful it leaves him speechless. The feeling is admiration mixed with disbelief. People use it for a brilliant football moment, but also for any feat that stuns an audience: a colleague’s masterstroke, a clean magic trick, an improbable shot among friends.
Where does the “Zizou chokbar” meme come from?
On 3 April 2018, at the Juventus Stadium in Turin, Real Madrid beat Juventus 3-0 in the first leg of their Champions League quarter-final. Cristiano Ronaldo scored twice, one of them an overhead kick voted goal of the competition. Footage of the strike, shared with the reaction of Real coach Zinédine Zidane, circulated under titles about his shock. A few months later, on 10 July 2018, Ronaldo left Madrid for Juventus, which gave the scene an extra twist.
