Yes, it’s a shame, even I as a Premier League fan have to says I am sad to see the Irish beging kicked. It looks like the big bosses want The French National Team in the World Cup 2010 no matter what… I feel a bit for Henry though as I always liked him and if you look at what is going in the regular matches there are so many things that are not correct but are still tolerated

“Seriously, doesn’t Ireland have more problems like chronic unemployment (10%) and a city like Dublin city which has officially “the highest murder rate in Europe” to worry about, a lot more than this?”Perhaps this maybe why the millions of euros that the FAI (Football Association of Ireland)has lost because of a faulty decision bothers them so much? More money into the economy to provide jobs, increased funds for sports to “get kids off the streets.”

to be honest, i dont know what all the controversy is all about.even though it quite clearly hit his leg, even if henry handballed it, it was ball to hand and therefore the game should have continued.henry’s control and gallas’ anticipation of henry’s cross was brillaint

This business of saying that it is all part of the so called ‘beautiful’ game is pathetic. It was cheating finish and clar. Blatter and his FIFA cronies have every right to over turn the referee’s decision in this particular case as it was cheating for all the world to see. What example is FIFA’s decision to the children of the world? Now France will be going to South Africa as a bunch of cheats because FIFA did not have the common sense to instruct that the game be replayed in Paris.

I just want to hear what Platini comments on this, He as an UEFA president give lot’s of comments on Fair Play, how come now he is so quite. I am a French supporter but the way they win the game make me sick. Go Irish you deserve the win and you play better football than French.

Get a grip everyone!Keane, the Irish player handled the ball 3 TIMES, 3 TIMES during the game, nothing said!It happens in football. Ireland need to get over themselves.And if the goal didn’t count….the game would still just gone to a lottery on penalties — they lost NOTHING.Seriously, doesn’t Ireland have more problems like chronic unemployment (10%) and a city like Dublin city which has officially “the highest murder rate in Europe” to worry about, a lot more than this?Embarressing.
