Mate. Have you seen the footage?
Henry could claim he was conducting Susan Boyle, Pavarotti, and Jacqueline Du Pres in an all-star celebrity 'Stars in their Eyes' - and he'd still have been cheating.
It doesn't matter what he says - he handled the ball (twice) with his hand. First time was possibly instinctive - the second he controls the ball.
That's against the rules - therefore it's cheating.
The ref missed it - therefore it's not cheating? Yeah right.
