'Handball' accused Henry has first taste of crowd hate after World Cup qualifier shame
Barcelona:France striker Thierry Henry had his first taste of crowd hate after his World Cup shame, when he was roundly booed during Barcelona 's 1-1 draw against Athletic Bilbao in the Spanish league. It was Henry's first appearance
since his blatant handball, which set up William Gallas' crucial goal in France
's World Cup play-off win over Ireland . The 32- was roundly booed and the deafening
whistles at the Camp Nou gave him a taste of things to come. However, former France
striker Zinedine Zidane has defended Henry and said: "He will get over this. He
made a mistake, like I made a mistake." "I'm not saying it was nothing, but it
was handball, that's it," The Sun quoted Zidane, as saying.
