When Thierry Henry had a pop at Javier Hernandez last night, every Irish football fan was united in a nationwide “do ya hear this fella?”
It was almost inconceivable that the man who celebrated a goal in which he used his hand like this …
to have a go for Javier Hernandez to celebrate a completely legitimate goal like this.

Sky Sports pundit Henry said: “What I don’t like is that he celebrates like he has just won the World Cup. It’s a tap in. Turn around and celebrate with Ronaldo.
“He knew he had to perform and he had a couple of chances to do it. Even the camera knew, the camera is on Ronaldo for a reason.”
UFC welterweight Cathal Pendred thought the exact same as he called the Frenchman out via Twitter today.
.@ThierryHenry How the hell can you criticize a player for celebrating a legit goal when you celebrated a goal after a handball #ShitePundit

Probably not wise for Thierry to respond with any degree of back talk.
