FIFA won’t change the result of match for France versus Ireland. It’s the final and no more replay. The score keeps 2-1 for France.
The FIFA states all finished. “As is clearly mentioned in the laws of the game, during matches, decisions are taken by the referee and these decisions are final,” he told.
FIFA has refused the Football Association of Ireland’s request for a replay of France’s World Cup play-off win over the Republic of Ireland.
The FAI’s chief executive John Delaney originally lodged a complaint asking for the match to be replayed to preserve the game’s “integrity”.
