Thierry Henry's handball against Ireland on the 19th of November 2009 saw his French team make it to the Fifa World Cup and send Ireland out.A controversial extra-time equaliser from William Gallas, who headed in Henry's pass to make it 1-1, gave France a 2-1 aggregate win and broke Irish hearts in Paris. Many of people think Ireland should of had a replay with France but I disagree. Remember what happened to England in 1986 when Maradona did the hand of god. They did not get a replay so why should we of got one. I think the Referee should have stopped the game and talked to his assistant. I also believe that taking in new technology would be a huge help when more incidents like these happen.
