France cheats its way into World Cup

Note how one of the top players in the world cheated to get his team into the World Cup. Poor Ireland.

This was clearly a nearly impossible situation for the referee team, Referee or the AR.

Incident brings to mind the idea of the spirit of the game and fair play.

Made me cringe to see Thierry Henry call for a handball in the France v Uruguay opener in the WC. Credit to that referee who saw it right, no handball at all.
