England Fans Troll Ireland Supporters with Sepp Blatter and Thierry Henry Chants

Now this is what football banter should be about.ย 

England fans in Dublin for Sunday's friendly made fun of the recent revelations that FIFA paid โ‚ฌ4.4 million to the FAI so Irish football's governing body would not launch legal action overย Thierry Henry's infamous handball that helped France beat Ireland in a World Cup play-off back in 2009.ย 

England supporters chanted "Sepp Blatter, he paid for your ground" and sang Henry's name.ย 

It's a welcome change from the last time the two sides met in Dublin, 20 years ago, when the game had to be called off because of crowd trouble.ย
