France To Play
Costa Rican In
Friendly
TIGNES, France
(AP) — Having
finally decided
which players to
take to the
World Cup,
France coach
Raymond Domenech
can test the
form and fitness
of defender
William Gallas
and striker
Thierry Henry in
Wednesday's
friendly against
Costa Rica.
While Gallas is
recovering well
from the calf
injury that saw
him miss the
last few weeks
of Arsenal's
season, Henry
played
sporadically for
Spanish champion
Barcelona in a
hugely
disappointing
season.
Domenech said
Tuesday that
Gallas "will
play a part
tomorrow"
against Costa
Rica in Lens.
Henry started
less than half
of Barca's
league games,
scoring just
four league
goals. The
32-year-old
striker has not
played the full
90 minutes of
any game since
January, and
he's scored just
five goals in
the last 30
games for club
and country.
