Robin and Henry score, Toure & Eboue ...


Henry socred an elusive goal yesterday for France against the South Koreans which was also the first goal scored by France after their World Cup victopry in 1998 as 2002 saw them head home in the very first round with the humiliation of not even scoring a goal. SO henry ends that drought thats the good news but also there is bad news atleast for me that goal couldnt gather much success for France as after taking the lead through Henry's 9 minute goal a sit-back-and-defend-approach backfired for the French and the Koreans much to the disappointment of Thierry Henry scored through ManU's Park Ji Sung late in the second half.

Later
Henry felt it to be a shame to let go a goal so late and he has words to express the disappointment.

It’s a shame we conceded a goal right at the end because we were very calm and
were defending well
.

Thats for Henry but theres more in terms of Arsenal players today...

Sadly enough Toure and Eboue had to face the disappointment of an early exit after all their hopes were dented by the defeat to a resilient Dutch side scoring two goals one thry RVP and other trhu ManU's RVNistelrooy. But luckily RVP is still there and have actually confirmed a place for Holand in the second round. Wat a scorcher of a free kick he scored and theres still more to come they way he is playing.. So sorry to Toure and Eboue but Best of Luck for RVP as he advances to the next round.

Also Rosicky and the Czechs face an uphill task in facing Italy after the Czechs incredibly lost to Ghana 2-0 though the Czechs played with 10 men for a large part of the match.
