France failed to beat China today in their final warm up game before the World Cup starts next Friday. China shocked the French when Deng's free kick swerved erratically in the air and crept past the out stretched Hugo Lloris. Les Blues had plenty of possession and chances, but failed to convert. William Gallas had a goal disallowed when the linesman rightfully deemed him offside.
After China took the lead, France started to threaten the Chinese goal. Arsenal's Abou Diaby had a long range effort tipped around the post by the 'keeper and his Arsenal teammate Gallas was thwarted by a last ditch interception by a Chinese defender. The French natives will be seriously underwhelmed with that performance and will be hoping that their heroes turn up against Uruguay next week.
