France Beat Mexico 1-0 In Zidane's Last Home International For Les Bleus

France have beaten fellow World Cup Finalists Mexico 1-0 in their international friendly match at the Stade de France in Paris.

France were without Arsenal striker Thierry Henry for the friendly World Cup warm-up match and laboured in front of goal without the talented marksman.

Florent Malouda scored the only goal of the match just seconds before halftime in a lacklustre home performance from Les Bleus.

This was also Zinedine Zidane's 100th match for Les Bleus, and he made an emotional farewell to the French fans in his last home international match after he announced his retirement from football after the World Cup Finals in Germany.
