Half-Time Report: France 0-0 Sweden

France are 45 minutes away from reaching the Euro 2012 quarter-finals but have been dominated by already-eliminated Sweden in the first half in Warsaw tonight.

Both Sebastian Larsson and Ola Toivenen sent early headed efforts off target as Sweden failed to capitalise on a slow French start.

PSV Eindhoven striker Toivenen came even closer later in the half when he hit the post after rounding France keeper Hugo Lloris.

Les Bleus struggled to penetrate a stubborn Swedish defence and were forced to try their luck from range.

Both Karim Benzema and Newcastle United's Hatem Ben Arfa, who was awarded a start by France boss Laurent Blanc, struck from long distance but failed to thoroughly test opposition keeper Andreas Isaakson.

A point will take France through to the last eight, but defeat may see them eliminated if Ukraine beat England in tonight's other Group D clash.
