France v Brazil, 9/2/11 (Paris)

menez gets the start. interesting...lets see what he can do.

im glad to see him him start, he's played well for roma
ALLEZ LES BLEUS!

Menez gets the start as expected. Hopefully he shines in this match. I'm pulling for him to become a fixture in this squad. Unfortunately I've got to focus on my job today so no afternoon match for me lol. Catch the replay tonight.


ALLLEZ LES BLEUS

i honestly thought Remy was going to be in the first 11, but i'm not disappointed. i think menez deserves it.

So far, France looks very tight. A bit unsure about facing brazil.

Beautiful ball by Gourcuff.

Damn! I'm nervous watching this!! It's just a friendly.. it's just a friendly.

Brazil looks way more up for this than we do .

The players need to step it up .

They're looking extremely tight. Just hold on until halftime, then shake off these damn butterflies.

Sagna is garbage . What does Réveillère have to do to get a damn place in the starting 11 ?

Hernanes thought it was a MMA match.

Red card justified! That was brutal.

What do you expect? He's with Lazio.

stupid challenge yes! in a league match, or competitive match,red. but its a friendly let him off with a yellow, this game is a exhibition no need to make it one sided. especially after the ref was being fairly lenient, letting them play. or , i know its impossible but somehow eject hernanes but let him be replaced and keep it 11 v. 11. no one wants to watch a 10 v. 11 friendly!

Yes, it's bad for France too, since the point was trying these players in 11-vs-11 conditions.

MENEZ is a beast !

BUT!!!! (okay, keeping in mind that it's 11 vs. 10).

MennnnnezzZ.....BENZEMAAAAAAAA!!!!!!! º•*>GOAL<*.º

Brésil can't defeat their bête noire.

benzema wants another!

He could've had about 5 right about now .

I'm surprised he's missing many chances .

You have to give Julio Cesar some credit.

Ugh! Now would've been a great substitution point for Trezegoal. Oh well...

Mexes. WOW !! What a performance from him.
