B777 Single engine Take-off

A few months ago a BA 777 in Riyadh had an engine failure during the take-off roll which was obviously past V1 as the aircraft went airborne. A few guys on board swore that they felt that the thrust of the good engine was reduced as they got airborne. This has caused quite a bit of banter as to if this happened or was perceived to have happened due to lack of cabin noise
My question is does the B777 automatically compensate for asymetric thrust by reducing thrust on the good engine when past V1?
Any B777 guru's answer this one!
Cheers
