Thierre Henry was involved in a goal mouth melee in the Chineses
penalty box. Henry tried to kick the ball over a Chinese defender's
head towards the goal. A second Chinese defender (sorry, do not know
the names) and the goal keeper converged on the ball to clear it away.
In the process, the Chinese defender pushed the away with his hand!
The referee did not notice this and the game continues! The TV
announcer showed a couple of replays which showed clear handling of
the ball, and commented on the irony!
Thierre was denied a penalty.
I think it was at the 87' and France were down by one goal and the
game ended 1-0 China.

Not sure it would be penalty, it didn't look deliberate at all..
But if the irish are satisfied with this "justice", then it's fine by me.
