Thierry Henry is no cheat says Beckham
DAVID BECKHAM has defended Thierry Henry following the France striker's controversial handball in the World Cup play-off against the Republic of Ireland.
Henry has been condemned as a cheat following his part in the decisive goal in Wednesday night's game in Paris.
But Beckham said: "I honestly didn't think Thierry meant it.
"He's a good person and a great player. It's a shame to see Ireland go out because they have such great fans but these things happen.
I've had a few headlines in the past which have not been nice but I don't think he is a cheat."
