YOU WANT ACTION FROM FIFA? Go to the World Cup site and contact them through email and ask them to organize a 3rd game to decide who goes to the world cup.

Im a neutral and I feel cheated out of what up to that point hand been a very exciting game. If you feel the same way make the effort to write to FIFA demanding Fair Play and demanding another game.

No point making comments here, write to FIFA and demand justice. If they get enough emails they will have to act!

this world cup consists of some very weak teams that got there for the first time ever so i dont think its going to be as good as the previous one. teams like slovenia slovakia FRANCE north korea new zealand usa shudnt be there.

What is the fuss all about?

The referee comitted a mistake. Referees are not perfect. If all referee's wrongs are gonna cause a rematch, the games will never end. Anyway, the swedish referee did not whistle a penalty fault against Ireland, just minutes before Henry's hand, so Why not restart the game since then, France kicking the penalty and then playing the remaining minutes ??
