He could have not hand balled it in the first place...Henry is one of the finest players, if not the best player ever to grace the Premier League and you're condemning him for the referee's mistake? He said it himself he wouldn't of contested the decision if the referee made one.
What else could he do? You play until the whistle - that's the first thing you learn as a footballer. It's not his fault.
Terrible.
Exactly, i play alot and i've stuck my arm out instintively multiple times the immediately realise and the ref gives a handball.
Basically, when the ball is so close to you, but you cant reach it, and your so keen to get a hold of it, it is insticnt and takes alot to avoid. it was the officials fault and not his. He's hardly gonna complain and say it was unfair.
I can't believe some people on this forum are even condoning this cheating in the slightest - and people wonder why football, especially International football, is going down the pan.
And please don't even try to blame the referee, blame the linesman, the Referee had about 6 players in front of him.

I blame the ref.
How on EARTH can you say its NOT cheating? HENRY ADMITTED HE HANDLED THE BALL, WHICH IS CHEATING, IT'S AGAINST THE RULES, IF YOU DO SOMETHING AGAINST THE RULES YOU ARE 'CHEATING'.
YES, it was his NATURAL REACTIONS, but that still doesn't take away from the fact that he handled it, which is CHEATING.

What's with all the racist stuff and the French remarks?
Yes he cheated in a way which brings discredit to himself and his whole footballing nation but when racist remarks are being said then there's no need for it.
It's football *** get over it. You win some you lose some.
