 Frank RIBERY: "It was difficult for us to get over the half-way line today. We are in a difficult group and the main thing is to get to the round of 16."
The match: (Frank Ribery)
30': A brilliant bit of approach work from Henry set up Marseille man Franck Ribery, but French debutant could only fire over Zuberbuehler's crossbar from just outside the box.
38': France saw their best chance of the first half go begging as Ribery beat his man down the right and laid the ball across to Henry. However, his shot on goal took a deflection en route to Zuberbuehler, amid French protests for handball.
69': In an attempt to inject some spark into the French attack on a warm evening, France boss Raymond Domenech withdrew Ribery in favour of in-form Manchester United striker Louis Saha.
