Roy Keane has blasted the Football Association of Ireland for trying to secure a replay against the French.

Keane's relationship with the FAI broke down after he walked out of the Ireland training camp before the 2002 World Cup. And he dismissed their calls for "the honesty and integrity" of the sport to be protected in the wake of Henry's cheating on Wednesday. The Ipswich boss (left) said: "The fans deserve better, Giovanni Trapattoni deserves better and probably most of the players deserve better but I'm not sure the FAI deserve better."

Keane pointed out that controversial decisions also went Ireland's way in the qualifying campaign, not least a harsh penalty award against Georgia which helped them to a win. He added: "What goes around comes around. Ireland had their chances in the two games against France and never took them. But it's the usual FAI reaction - 'We've been robbed, the honesty of the game ... '

"Ireland got a penalty against Georgia that was one of the worst decisions. I don't remember the FAI after the game saying, 'We should give them a replay'."
