The question is did he mean it...

New York Red Bulls beat D.C United 2-0 in the semi final of the MLS Cup Playoffs last night and 37-year-old Thierry Henry ran the show with two assists and an all-round classy performance.

The ex-Arsenal man set up goals for Bradley Wright-Phillips and Peguy Luyindula which sees the Reds Bulls hold the advantage heading into the second leg.

Henry's assist for Wright-Phillips has caused a bit of debate as to whether he meant it or not. It was either a genius piece of vision and skill or else sheer luck. What do you think?
