Euro 2008: Diaby makes debut as France win Abou Diaby, William Gallas Lithuania 0-1 France, March 24, France v Austria, March 28 法国队靠着Anelka的进球获胜 Diaby在第73分钟替换Malouda上场，完成国家队处子秀 Gallas则是第53场 (曾几何时 枪手的公鸡代表变成这两人了) Abou Diaby made his France debut as Raymond Domenech's side kept their Euro 2008 qualifying campaign on track with a narrow win in Lithuania. The Arsenal midfielder replaced Florent Malouda with a minute of normal time remaining and helped France protect the lead given to them by former Gunner Nicolas Anelka in the 73rd minute. Arsenal defender William Gallas played the whole match in Lithuania and, like Diaby, will stay with the France squad for Wednesday's friendly against Euro 2008 co-hosts Austria in Paris. France are level on points with Scotland at the top of Group B. Group B Pld Pts Scotland 5 12 France 5 12 Ukraine 4 9 Italy 4 7 关於Diaby在阔别赛场大半年之後回来，这麽快就被call up Gallas也感到有点讶异 「For me I was a little bit surprised,」 said Gallas. 「But at the same time he is a great player. He showed that at Everton. 「To return [from injury] shows he is really strong in his mind. Now he wants to just play, play, play, play, play. I am happy to play with someone like this. He really is a strong man.」 Having said that, the former Chelsea defender believes Diaby will need to adapt to the different pace of international football. 「When you go with the national team the rhythm is quicker,」 he said. 「I told him in the first half [at Everton] he needs to play faster. But he certainly has the quality to play [for France] but now he has to work more. He is still young and what I really like about him is that when you talk to him he listens to you.」 关於Gallas自己：自从多梅内克担任法国国家队主帅以来，共率领球队进行了36场正式比 赛，21胜12平3负，後卫加拉参加了其中的33场，有趣的是，加拉没参加的三场多梅内克 全部输掉，可谓是球队不折不扣的「福星」。 Jens Lehmann Czech Republic 1-2 Germany, March 24, Germany v Denmark, March 28 Jens Lehmann and Germany boosted their Euro 2008 qualification hopes with an impressive win in the Czech Republic. Petr Cech kept Germany at bay with a string of fine saves in the first half but could do nothing about Kevin Kuranyi's firm header from Torsten Frings' corner three minutes before the break. The Germany striker doubled his tally just after the hour mark, nodding in Philip Lahm's pinpoint cross on the counter-attack. Lehmann, who played the full 90 minutes, was beaten with 15 minutes remaining when Jan Pola'k's long-range strike deflected off Milan Baros and into the net, but Germany held on. They are now three points clear of the Czech Republic and the Republic of Ireland in Group D. Lehmann will stay with the Germany squad for their next qualifier, against Denmark in Duisburg on Wednesday. Tomas Rosicky Czech Republic 1-2 Germany, March 24, Czech Republic v Cyprus, March 28 Tomas Rosicky played a full 90 minutes but could not find a way past his Arsenal team-mate Jens Lehmann as Germany ended the Czech Republic's unbeaten start to their Euro 2008 qualifying campaign. Kevin Kuranyi struck either side of half-time to put the visitors in charge before Milan Baros reduced the deficit with 15 minutes remaining. Rosicky and Baros went close to an equaliser but Germany kept their hosts at bay. The Czech Republic are now three points behind Germany at the top of Group D and level on points with the Republic of Ireland. Rosicky will stay with the Czech squad for their next qualifier, against Cyprus in Liberec on Wednesday. Group D Pld Pts Germany 5 13 Czech Republic 5 10 Republic of Ireland 6 10 Slovakia 5 9 Mart Poom Estonia 0-2 Russia, March 24, Israel v Estonia, March 28 Poom先发打满，爱沙尼亚四连败，一分未得... Arsenal goalkeeper Mart Poom played a full 90 minutes but could not prevent Estonia slipping to their fourth defeat in four Euro 2008 qualifying games. The home side kept Russia at bay for 66 minutes with Poom saving brilliantly from Andrei Arshavin and Aleksandr Kerzhakov in the second half. But Poom was powerless when the same two strikers exchanged passes and Kerzhakov lifted the ball into the net. With 12 minutes remaining Kerzhakov doubled Russia's lead, combining with Arshavin, Diniyar Bilyaletdinov and Dmitri Torbinskiy before scoring with a low shot. Estonia are still without a goal or a point in Group E and travel to Israel for their next qualifier on Wednesday. Cesc Fabregas Spain 2-1 Denmark, March 24, Spain v Iceland, March 28 小法布没有上场 Cesc Fabregas was an unused substitute as Spain gave their Euro 2008 qualifying campaign a much-needed boost with a 2-1 win against Denmark. Fernando Morientes fired Spain ahead in the first half and his Valencia team-mate David Villa added a second seconds before the interval. Denmark had already been reduced to 10 men by Niclas Jensen's dismissal but Michael Gravgaard's second-half goal set up a nervous finale for Spain. Arsenal's on-loan striker Nicklas Bendtner came off the bench with 17 minutes remaining but could not find an equaliser for Denmark. Spain's win takes them up to fourth place in Group F, six points adrift of leaders Sweden. Fabregas will stay with Luis Aragones' squad for Wednesday's qualifier against Iceland. --
