Trap has a plan to dethrone King Henry

Saturday November 14 2009

HE has scored plenty of memorable goals for Arsenal, Barcelona and France -- but Ireland manager Giovanni Trapattoni is hoping Thierry Henry will be off target in tonight's first leg World Cup playoff match at Croke Park.

The French striker, pictured by David Maher, arrived in Dublin yesterday for part one of the crucial two-match battle to see who will travel to next summer's World Cup in South Africa.

Trapattoni (inset) said his players would have to "keep their heads" if they were to overcome the French challenge.
