I don't think so... it was reported he scored only, never
mention any injury to him.
Georgia 0-3 France
TBILISI, Sept 2 (Reuters) - World Cup runners-up France began the
post-Zinedine Zidane era in impressive fashion by crushing Georgia
3-0 in their opening Euro 2008 qualifier on Saturday.
Playing their first official match without their inspirational
playmaker who retired after the World Cup final in July, the French
struck twice in the first 15 minutes to silence a capacity
55,000-strong home crowd.
Florent Malouda opened the scoring seven minutes into the game when
he surprised Georgia keeper Grigol Chanturia with a 20-metre drive
and Louis Saha doubled the lead with
another low blast after a neat feed from Thierry Henry eight
minutes later.
The visitors made it 3-0 less than a minute after the break to put
the Group B encounter beyond doubt. Henry was credited with the
goal which was inadvertently directed into his own net by Georgia
fullback Malkhaz Asatiani.
The Georgians, under new German manager Klaus Toppmoeller, thrashed
Faroe Islands 6-0 in their opener two weeks ago.
