Nicolas Sarkozy on Ireland's appeal for a replay
After constant badgering by the Irish, who were unhappy at seeing France fraudulently advance to next year's World Cup in South Africa at their expense, French president Nicolas Sarkozy immediately flew to Cairo, where Hosni Mubarak is "having words", as they say at home, with Algeria, about football. Sarko then went to Moscow to discuss the incident with Vladimir Putin, an expert in dealing with exasperating and bothersome small neighbours. Inspired by his host, the French president then delivered a cheerful coup de grĂ¢ce to Ireland's appeal.
Comments
I would like to point that the video attached to this news is non-relevant as it has been recorded more than 1 year ago. Except that we can see Mr. Sarkozy and that it has been taken after a meeting with Mr. Poutin, this video has nothing to deal with the current subject (at all).

Olivier, it was meant to be, like, ironic.
