Ok - so Thierry Henry clutching his face following a collision by Carles Puyol against Spain looks at best, exaggerated and dubious.
But I see it as the perfect answer to Spanish coach Luis Aragonés. Cast your mind back two years ago, when Aragonés racially abused Henry to his Arsenal team-mate Jose Antonio Reyes (he branded the Frenchman a "black shit").
Aragonés has never apologised for the comment and received a paltry fine by the Spanish FA (3000 euros). Henry's actions might have been in poor taste, but it was also poetic justice.
PS: I still think he was fouled anyway....
