In a Facebook poll of 2,982 respondents, 40.7% chose “Zinedine Zidane”. How we count
Zidane claimed 40.7% of 2,982 votes — 1,213 in total, more than the #2 and #3 finishers combined manage between them. His share opened at 42% on day one, settled at 41% by day two, and sat there for the full 58 days without so much as a percentage-point wobble. No rival ever closed the distance; second-place Raúl González topped out at 22.2%, not even half of Zidane's total.
Geography drew the only fault line: Spain alone put homegrown Raúl on top, and Hungary alone backed countryman Ferenc Puskás. Everywhere else that mattered — the U.S., Chile, France, Egypt, Greece, Israel, Türkiye — went for Zidane. Barely 1% of voters were declared page fans, so this wasn't a fanbase turnout; it was an open crowd picking one name decisively from the start.
- The scale · Zidane's 1,213 votes topped the #2 and #3 finishers combined
- Frozen margin · Zidane's share sat at 41% every day for 58 straight days
- Spain's outlier · Spain was the only major country to favor Raúl González
- Home-country pick · Hungary was the only nation to back native son Ferenc Puskás
