Thierry Henry doubled helping France sink Tunisia 3-1 in a friendly
yesterday.
Tunisia forward Issam Jemaa twisted his way past defender Jean-Alain Boumsong
to put the visitors ahead with a low angled shot 30 minutes into an entertaining
game.
France leveled 10 minutes later with a superb goal from Henry, who fired into
the top corner from just outside the box after a one-two with playmaker Yoann
Gourcuff.
France's record goal scorer Henry was on target again three minutes into the
second half, tapping home from close range for his 48th goal in 107
internationals.
Fellow striker Karim Benzema wrapped up the victory with a strike from the
edge of the area after 58 minutes following fine work by fullback Rod Fanni, who
celebrated his first cap with a stylish performance.
Domenech, under pressure since France's group-stage exit from Euro 2008, will
find out after a meeting today whether he remains in charge.
