Henry Escapes Punishment

keane

Thierry Henry has escaped any official punishment for his
blatant handball against Ireland last November.

FIFA’s disciplinary commission has ruled that the France
captain will not receive a suspension or even a reprimand
after he handled the ball twice in the build-up to the crucial
goal that sealed his side’s place at this year’s World Cup.

Under the current FIFA rules, the disciplinary committee is
only entitled to impose sanctions if a player uses their
hands to prevent a goal from being scored and they said
that there was “no legal foundation” for them to deal with the case.
