France’s second-string side went up 3-0 against Mali today in Paris, and held on to win the friendly 3-2.

We had links to highlights in Daily Motion, but they quit working. Here are some pictures from the game.

Nasri seems to be getting back in form which is certainly a great news. My main worry from watching Mali’s goals is that the French defenders are failing to win the ball in the air.

Nasri’s chances of making the squad for Euro 2008 would appear to have benefited from the game against Mali.

Would you believe that my hotel in Paris didn’t show this game? I was heartbroken. It sounds like it was great, and some of the newcomers made a difference. And it’s good to hear that Nasri is back.

Sounds like Arsenal. Please dear god don’t let this problem cause them to lose v. England. Just heard last night on skysports that England have a pretty damned good record v. France in their 49 meetings. England have won the bulk of those games, France have won a handful, and there have been a handful of draws. PLEASE, after a horrible week for Arsenal, I’m hoping for a victory v. England tonight to ward off all the depression.

If aerial battles are to be won, Philippe Mexès should be included, but we all know what Domenech thinks of Serie A stars.
