Any idiot can face a crisis - it's day to day living that wears you out.

The interesting point here is that even without the Henry "goal" the tie was still drawn and would have gone to penalties if no further goals were scored.  So technically Ireland cannot claim to have been robbed of qualification - merely that they were denied a fair opportunity to do so.  France, in my view, were still in the driving seat as they have a superb goal-keeper and technically adept penalty takers.
