France Soccer

Wow.  Disappointing.  France exits the UEFA Euro 2008 championship with a mere 1 point and at the bottom of Group C results.

Today’s match-up was excitement filled, but none of it positive for the French national soccer team.  It started with Franck Ribery going down with a tough injury only 7 minutes in, continued with Eric Abidal being sent off a mere 18 minutes later.  The Italians dominated most of the game, especially the opening half.  If Luca Toni was more precise for Italy, the game could have easily ended 4-0.
