The former defender says Martin O'Neill's side will not have forgotten their controversial defeat in World Cup qualifying in 2009 and will be fired up for their last 16 clash
France must be wary of revenge-seeking Republic of Ireland when they meet in the second round of Euro 2016 on Sunday, former defender William Gallas says.
Ireland were controversially beaten by France in 2009 in a two-legged play-off to qualify the 2010 World Cup, with Gallas scoring the decisive goal in a 2-1 aggregate win in Paris.
But Ireland fans insist that strike should not have stood as Thierry Henry controlled the ball with his hand in the build-up, which Gallas believes coach Martin O'Neill will mention to his players.
