Time for another friendly

February 22nd, 2006 | by: Chriso | Comments Off

Next tuesday and wednesday are busy nights for international games with pretty much every country in the World Cup playing a friendly match.
France are taking on Slovakia at the Stade de France and Raymond Domenech will probably name his squad tomorrow after tonights Champions League fixtures, there are a number of French players involved.

Slovakia are currently ranked 45 by FIFA and came second in their qualifying group to Portugal, losing only one of twelve games. They then got thumped 6-2 by Spain in the playoffs and that ended their World Cup dreams, but they should give France a decent game next week although with the second leg of the Champions League games coming up the following week I’m sure most of the players won’t be breaking sweat.
