As a France fan, it's definitely far from being one of my proudest moments. The team played like headless chicken, Domenech was outplayed by Trapattoni, and everyone in the field was standing still waiting for the ball to bounce into their legs. In the end, it went down to a dirty play by one of the greatest strikers to ever grace a football pitch. Let me just ask you something, if you put any player in Henry's position and in the same conditions, wouldn't they do the exact same thing?? Of course they will, because when so much is at stake, you do just about anything to get your team through. Am I defending this blatant act of cheating? No, absolutely not. I just hate to see Henry becoming the scapegoat. We witness acts of cheating on a daily basis in football, whether it is diving, hand-balling or faking injuries. Henry did it at the most flagrant time. At a time where a spot in the world cup was at stake. So don't blame the guy, blame the human nature that gets you to do whatever possible thing you think would look reasonable at the time. Blame a great Irish team, that can embarrass any top-10 team on its day, because they failed to capitalize on their heavy domination throughout the 120 minutes. Blame the refereeing and the neanderthal laws that prevent the insertion of extra referees on the pitch or the use of technology to prevent similar accidents from happening. The story here is much bigger than Henry's hand. France just squeezes through to the world cup. At the end of the day, it's them that will head to Pretoria in a few months time, and there's nothing that me, you or anyone can do about it. Dark day for football indeed. And to everyone that has already buried the French team, I can only say that I'm not too optimistic myself with the current coaching staff. But it's usually when France is written off that it pulls off its greatest performances. June 11th is just around the corner, let's wait and see.
Welcome to DJ.Malaria you may wonder why I called this group Dj Malaria.
Just like Malaria takes over a person's body when it hits them i want my music's originality to control the soul of whoever hears it in that sense my music is more powerful than Malaria,and I'm sure it will but in a positive way of
course.
