This might be a belated comment I am making on this incident in the match between Ireland and, France but it still counts. My take on this is simple, people had no right labelling this the hand of God. There was nothing miraculous about what Thierry Henry did, infact I will call it cheating. Though Henry showed some compassion for the Irish players after the game, he should have hold a press conference and apologise for what he did, and that will have nail everything in the bud. As for the Irish, they need to stop crying over spilt milk and just move on. This incident should not damage the relations between the two countries, after all it is just a game. Fifa did the right thing not allowing a replay as that will lead more countries calling for the same thing. One thing Fifa can do is use Henry as an example by banning him from the first two game in the world cup. That will deter other players from doing the same.
