We want to clinch finals spot with Paris victory, says Henry

FRANCE captain Thierry Henry has told his team to play for a win against Ireland and not settle for the draw that will be enough to secure their place in the World Cup finals.

The Barcelona forward warned his team-mates that facing the Irish on their own patch will be an even tougher task than last Saturday at Croke Park,

Though he could not predict what tactics the opposition might adopt, he insisted France would play the same way as they did in Dublin.
