Roy Keane has no sympathy for Republic of Ireland exit

Roy Keane has lambasted the Republic of Ireland's attempts to get their controversial World Cup play-off match against France replayed.

The Republic appealed to Fifa after their 2-1 aggregate defeat by France on the basis that the winning goal came after a blatant Thierry Henry handball.

But Ipswich boss Keane said: "They can complain all they want but France are going to the World Cup - get over it.

"France were there for the taking and Ireland didn't do it. Same old story."

The Irishman, who made 65 appearances for the Republic as a player, continued: "If I'd been there in the dressing room after the game, I wouldn't be talking about the handball. I'd focus on why the defenders didn't clear it. They should've cleared it.

"I'd be more annoyed with my defenders and my goalkeeper than Thierry Henry. How can you let the ball bounce in your six-yard box? How can you let Thierry Henry get goal-side of you? If the ball goes into the six-yard box, where the hell is my goalkeeper?

"These are skills and lessons you learn as a schoolboy.

"Ireland had their chances in the two games and they never took them. They had chances at Croke Park (in the first leg) and they had chances on Wednesday.

"They didn't take them, but it's the usual FAI (Football Association of Ireland) reaction - 'we've been robbed, the honesty of the game...' It's rubbish."

And Keane pointed out that controversial decisions went Ireland's way in the qualifying campaign, not least a harsh penalty award against Georgia which helped them to clinch a 2-1 qualifying win in February.

"There was one match against Georgia where Ireland got a penalty and it was one of the worst decisions I've ever seen which changed the whole course of the game.

"I don't remember the FAI after the game saying we should give them a replay."

Henry bukan penipu: Zidane

PARIS: Pemenang pingat kejuaraan Piala Dunia, Zinedine Zidane berkata bekas rakan sepasukannya dari Perancis, Thierry Henry “bukan seorang penipu” di sebalik bola yang ditampan dengan tangan ketika membantu negaranya layak ke pusingan akhir Piala Dunia dengan mengenepikan Ireland, Rabu lalu.

Zidane, yang memenangi Piala Dunia 1998 dan Kejohanan Eropah 2000 bersama Henry, berkata kapten Perancis itu “melakukan kesilapan besar di atas padang” tetapi “bukan seorang penipu.”

Henry yang menyentuh bola dengan tangan mencipta peluang untuk gol penyamaan William Gallas bagi keputusan seri 1-1 yang menjulang Perancis layak ke edisi 2010 di Afrika Selatan.

“Thierry Henry menyentuh bola cuma satu fakta perlawanan.” kata Zidane. “Saya menyokong Henry. Saya berpendapat dia bukan seorang penipu. Dia mengakui bahawa dia menyentuh bola. Saya sudah mengenalinya selama 10 atau 12 tahun dan saya tahu dia bukan seorang penipu.

“Saya hanya berkata dia membuat keputusan buruk seperti saya lakukan. Semua orang membuat kesilapan.” Ireland merayu kepada persekutuan Perancis untuk bersetuju kepada perlawanan ulangan tetapi ditolak.

Di sebalik tekanan memuncak bagi permohonan maaf dari Henry, Zidane membayangkan bahawa Henry sudah pun melakukannya: “Pada pandangan saya, dengan berkata bahawa dia bersedia kepada ulangan perlawanan itu seakan-akan seperti satu permohonan maaf.” - AP
