40′ – France throw – Sagna…goal kick.

OMG, is that Howard Webb refereeing?? FFS!!!

41′ Lithuania injury.

Every time I sneak a peek at this game on my PC (I’m at work) I see a Lithuanian player on the ground acting like he’s dying.

Fouls: France 10, LIthuania 13 (44′)

45′ Ribs hurt. Yellow for Lithuania player.

2 minutes

luyindula is having some great turns…

lithuanian players are acting like italians

0-0 at half time.

yea the lithuanian tactic is 8-1-1 and suddenly go attack but it always fails like a big failure so fall down and cry so a brandcard comes but they suddenly get better because that ref cries too

BTW, Jeff, thanks for that French radio link, I’m enjoying listening to it. Also, the first livestream link someone on this thread gave is working pretty well.

dont forget about this link http://www.channelsurfing.net/ just scroll down and click on game, its been working for the past 3 games

On Europe 1 they’re saying France should drop one of the defensive midfielders.

Everybody agrees with Europe 1 except Raymond Astrologic Domenbecg

They’re right — I’m sick to death of watching Domenech suffocating the wonderful talents of his players.

Alex, there seems to be a firewall I can’t get past, so unfortunately the channelsurfing link doesn’t work for me.

52′ – still 0-0

This is just incredibly frustrating.

Mandanda puts goal kick into touch. Ouch. (78′)

More Benzema (77′)

Is it just my impression or is this crowd much better than usual?

WTF?? That was a f—ing deliberate assault on Sagna!!!

Sagna injured (80′)

Ribery hurt (82′)

Another France free kick. (83′) – It’s clear.

Sagna clears.

3 minutes

Gignac!

Squillaci concedes free kick.

Mandanda got it.

these last minutes are stressful

Game over. Another 3 points

That’s 6 points from 6 during this patch of qualifying. The improvement since Gourcuff came in is continuing.

Full Time 1-0

yes france won

well, france won but there are a few things to take from this game and one is set pieces, all of them completely gone to waste

True, jeff — is it too much to hope that what we’re seeing is a gradual coherence and improvement in this team?

Knowing Domenech, it probably is.

Enuf of that. France move up to 2nd place now, right? Whew! Glad that’s over, but Ribery was wonderful to watch.

True ahmad — like Arsenal, France almost never score from set pieces.

it looked like they were trying to hurt ribery!

Alex, they were, they were! They were trying to hurt several of our players, but esp. Ribery.

Austria must kill Serbia

Don’t think that’s going to happen, Jack.

Funny, I didn’t see this post till after the game was over. And as I said on the other post, I really, really liked Gignac today.

My favorite quote from Domenech on the game:

“Quant à Gignac (pour sa première titularisation), il a joué avec ses qualités naturelles. Le jour où il ne tente pas, c’est qu’il est malade.”

sandrahn arsenal do score of off set pieces, agaisnt newcastle, against hull against wba, in todays game riberys deliverys from dead balls where horrendous

sorry ahmad, but Arsenal scoring off set pieces can be counted in one hand. You can name a few games and that’s it. It’s a constant problem for us and it’s something very often commented on by gooners and pundits. We rarely look dangerous when we get a set piece. That’s why a player like Bendtner–whose finishing skills leave much to be desired–are so important because once in awhile he can pull off a header from a set piece. We rarely score goals from them. We also don’t have very good crossers. Sagna and Clichy are terrific players but they’re lousy crossers.

what does set pieces mean???

set piece = free kick or corner kick

I think Gignac should be a mainstay on this team. I like his game a lot.

“We rarely score goals from them. We also don’t have very good crossers. Sagna and Clichy are terrific players but they’re lousy crossers.”

As sandrahn stated the number of set pieces they’ve scored could be counted on one hand vs. the chances they’ve had, 4 0-0 ties in a row tells the tale for the Gunners, but no worries as

C E S C I S B A C K !!!

Sagna had much better crossing ability last year as supposed to the duds
he’s sending in the box easily handled by the keepers.
Keep the faith, 10 games left and it’s wide open.

i like france team
but not like domenech
maybe sometimes france have looking for new coach to better team

thanks cool now i know what set pieces mean

“maybe sometimes france have looking for new coach to better team”

DUH-UUUH,, DEFFUH-NEETE-LY!
