Goal: Thierry Henry

Arsenal captain, Thierry Henry, fired France into a world cup semi final last night after he scored the games only goal.

Brazil had been hotly tipped to oust the winners from 1998 but didn’t have things their own way. Henry stole in at the back post to volley home a Zinedane Zidane free kick, in what was to be revenge over Ronaldinho for the Champions League final.

And who says Henry goes missing in big games?
