万花筒 2009-11-24&11-25 贝克汉姆：亨利的“上帝之

I don't really think he meant it; it's a shame to see Ireland go out because, you know, it's got such great fans and so passionate¹. But you know, these things happen in football,  and you know, whatever is right and whatever is wrong, but I really don't think he meant it.

If that was you, David, would you have said to the referee² that you deliberately³ handled the ball?

Who knows in that situation, you know, you are playing in a World Cup qualifier to go through to the World Cup, you know, it's such a heated emotional moment and you don't know what you are doing in games...you know I've been involved in big games, intense situations and I've reacted to certain things, I 've looked back at it and I often thought "Wow, I was wrong to do that", but you know, like I said, I've watched it, I don't think Thierry meant it, but he is a good person and a great player.
