Manchester City goalkeeper Shay Given admits he will struggle to watch the World Cup this month.

France beat Ireland 2-1 on aggregate in their World Cup play-off in November thanks to Thierry Henry's blatant cheating.

Irish keeper Given, 34, said: "His handball still hurts. Living in England I'm going to be hearing about it all the time, which is annoying, but we've got to get on and focus on qualifying for Euro 2012."
