FIFA has today, 20 November 2009, replied to the request made by the Football Association of Ireland (FAI) to replay the 2010 FIFA World Cup South Africa™ play-off match held on 18 November 2009 between France and the Republic of Ireland in Paris.
In the reply, FIFA states that the result of the match cannot be changed and the match cannot be replayed. As is clearly mentioned in the Laws of the Game, during matches, decisions are taken by the referee and these decisions are final.
Che significa? Sostanzialmente che la partita tra Francia ed Irlanda non si rigiocherà, le decisioni vengono prese soltanto dalla terna arbitrale e sono decisive e finali: la Francia andrà in Sud Africa e l'Irlanda starà a casa a guardare.
