Unless my numbers are all wrong, the qualifiers for the World Cup in South Africa next year are over and we have the final list of teams that will be attending below.

The Irish will feel the hardest done by tonight after Thierry Henry clearly handled the ball to set up the goal that eventually saw them qualify but I have a feeling that a few Irishmen in France will be having fun tonight.

Also through today are Portugal, Greece and Slovenia from the European qualifying groups along with Algeria from the African qualifying group who beat Egypt in the Sudan capital Khartoum.
