Thierry Henry's calculated handball showed football is all about getting away with what you can when you can It is understood that the canonisation of Thierry Henry has been postponed indefinitely. During his eight years at Arsenal Henry came to represent what football ought to be about, yet in the space of barely a heartbeat at the Stade de France on Wednesday night he managed to show what in reality...
It hasn't been a good week for football. It's been one to make you shut your eyes tight, press your fingers into your ears and hope that it will all be right again soon. Today came the news from Germany that 200 matches across Europe are under investigation for match-fixing, and arrests have been made in several countries. It's an open secret that in Italy and some other places, results are arranged,...
Even the most die-hard Roy Keane supporter will surely have been left dismayed following the Ipswich Town manager's rant over France's midweek winner in that World Club qualifying second-leg play-off. The infamous "hand of Henry" goal led to Ireland's elimination and not surprisingly comparisons have been made with Maradona's 1986 "hand of god" goal. The manner of France's winning...
The big controversy in the football world this week has been France's qualification for next year's World Cup, after they beat Ireland in a two legged play off . Arsenal's William Gallas bundled home the decisive goal in Wednesday's 1-1 draw in Paris, but it was obvious to all that Barcelona striker Thierry Henry handled the ball twice in the build up to the goal. The Irish FA are understandably outraged...

• French have a 'moral obligation' to grant rematch • Irish urge Fifa to display their belief in 'fair play and integrity' The Republic of Ireland have told Thierry Henry and France that they have a moral obligation to grant them a rematch of Wednesday night's World Cup play-off second-leg, from which France progressed to the finals in South Africa following Henry's controversial "Hand...
After some dramatic final round and playoff matches, the footballing nations which will grace the stadiums in South Africa are now complete. France, though should be feeling very sheepish as they cheated their way into South Africa. No one would've expected Thierry Henry to do a "mini-Maradona" but unfortunately, footballers will always try to gain an advantage whether legally or illegally....

PARIS (Reuters) - Thierry Henry was compared to the great Diego Maradona, although not the way he may have wished, and coach Raymond Domenech faced further criticism after France controversially scraped past Ireland to make the World Cup.
What a ghastly way to start my day. I'm sitting there with my first cup of tea at 8.35 a.m. and he came on my TV screen. The mediagenic Thierry Henry, a truly gifted superstar of the soundbite, stands in the Mixed Zone after the match and says, "I did handle the ball but I didn't do it on purpose." LIAR ! WHAT A LIAR YOU ARE ! So Thierry Henry is a liar as well as a cheat. Last night I felt...
France 1 (1) - 1 (0) Ireland. AET. France qualify for the 2010 World Cup. I recall watching the 1986 World Cup on TV, which was a rarity at the time from the United States. I vaguely recall watching the Argentina v England quarter final match as well. However, not being an England fan, and only an 18 year old American at that, the infamous Hand of God goal by Maradona didn't resonate at the time as...
