Re: the zi hai theory
France-0 @ 1.65
What differing fates for these World Cup 2006 quarter-finalists. France are already through to Euro 2008, while Ukraine are already out of it.
Although they’re still suffering from a few major injury problems, they’re high on confidence as they prepare to face the embattled UkrainiansKarim Benzema and all-time leading scorer Thierry Henry are eager to add to their own accounts, and they’re in with every chance of doing so, although a 2-2 draw with Morocco on Friday hardly raised the spirits.
The Ukrainians have won just one of their last five competitive games and, with all due respect to their opponents, even then it was against the Faroes.
Florent Malouda is the only new absence for coach Domenech; the Chelsea ace joins Gregory Coupet and Nicolas Anelka on the sidelines. Jeremy Toulalan has been looking good of late and he could come in, while Samir Nasri will take up a playmaker role. Benzema should support Henry up front.
