France's first game: disappointing

France's first game (a 0-0 tie to Uruguay) in the 2010 World Cup can only be seen as a disappointment. The Uruguay defense played a very solid game, but that does not excuse the lack of French offense. Ribery played one of the worst games I've seen him play in a long time, and Anelka definitely did not play to the level he regularly does for Chelsea. Gignac and Diaby looked to be the most dangerous players, which makes it such a shame that Gignac only had limited minutes today. Hopefully Domenech will give him a starting spot in the line-up. I would have liked to see more of Henry as well, as he looked menacing in his limited time today (though not to the extent of the two mentioned above). Come on France, pick up your game!
