You've got to hand it to the Irish as French fall apart in Paris

Special Report from the Stade de France. World Cup Qualifier 2009:??France 1-1 Republic of Ireland (Ireland win 2-1 on aggregate)

France got their just deserts in Paris last night after their World Cup dream turned sour thanks to the sweetest of strikes from Robbie Keane - and a little help from the video ref.

Keane booked Ireland a place in in the World Cup Finals with a late goal to give the visitors a 2-1 aggregate victory, but it could so easily have ended badly for the Irish had Thiery Henry's skulldugerry gone unoticed. The French striker used his hand to assist teammate William Gallas for what could have been the winning goal.But the referee upheld Irish calls for handball and the video ref called it against Henry. Sweet justice for the Irish who many would agree deserved the victory after playing the game of their lives.
