Yeah, that's what gets me too.

Henry was very ordinary I thought apart from a couple of flashes earlier on. Nailed-on penalty though, pissed me off that he did the swan lake thing but then the Portuguese spent much of the match falling over when there had been precisely *no* contact - as the TV replays they *know* everyone's watching showed.

Very glad the French won and very glad Scolari's Method Acting isn't coming to a national side anywhere near me soon.
