Please take a moment and sign this Petition if you believe the Republic of Ireland Football Team were cheated out of a World Cup place.
On November 18th 2009, France hosted the Rep. Ireland football team in Paris.
The first leg was played on the 14th November in Dublin and France got a crucial 1-0 win with a deflected goal.
The return leg would see Ireland needing to win to qualify for the 2010 FIFA World Cup.
Rep. Ireland scored the first goal in Paris in the first half through Robbie Keane, until later on in the match a blatant foul by Thierry Henry saw the frenchman use his hand to keep the ball in play, the whole world saw it....
apart from the referee.
The game ended 1-1 and Ireland went out of the World Cup with a 2-1 aggregate score.
If you feel injustice has been done, and feel that FIFA should review the goal and push for a replay then please leave you're thoughts here.

- FIFA are all for 'Fair Play' - then prove it, Ireland lost out on a World Cup place through a foul. It's not fair and either the goal should be disallowed or a replay should be played on neutral turf.
