During the defeat of Spain, Henry was blocked by Puyol who deserved the yellow, but why did Henry act out that he was elbowed in his face???

Henry, ya he just like the others and palying like women on the picth which like to dive and get attention by the ref (im referring to what he have comment bout Barca players after Arsenal defeat at Champions League)

I remember being a little confused about that as well, because I don't remember seeing Puyol's elbow in Henry's face.... But part of the fun of the game (for me, anyway) is to try and figure out which player is the best actor, so I don't mind too much on this one. I would mind if it would have somehow made a difference in the outcome, but, alas... <:´(

Not usually, but he was last night.
However in my opinion it was a foul.
Henry was trying to get Puyol a yellow or red card.
Players shouldn't do that.
I'd like to see retrospective cards for "Simulation".
Anyone agree with that?

Yes I do the Spanish player never touched his face. I always thought Henry was a honest player but he is no better than the others

Come to think of it, it was odd. Puyol looked genuinely shocked when he protested that he hadn't pushed Henry that hard.
Come to think of it, Henry had exaggerated his fall. To be one step ahead in the World Cup match, maybe one has to be SNEAKY-like otherwise you get trodden on.

I am gutted, as usually he is a clean player, but that was obviously not a foul, as the replays had shown that Puyol had not even touched him, let alone fouling him! I changed my mind on him from that 'foul', he's a good actor!

No, it was the "Hand of God" that hit him in the face that's why we didn't see it but he obviously felt it and was struck to the ground in awe! Ask Maradonna, he knows all about this sort of thing!

Not sure if he is a cheat, but he is definitely a hypocrite.
