France could not break down the stubborn Romanian defence and have suffered the first setback of the tournament dropping two points to a solid Romanian side. Many expect this group to be have a tight qualification with and possibly having it decided by goal differential. France were lacklustre and failed to score in their opening Euro 2008 game against Romania which could leave them with an uphill task to qualify. Missing influential midfielder Vieira and main striker Henry, they created little against the hard-working but unambitious Romanians.
