Thursday, 21 August 08, 03:43 PM · Comments(1)
Two goals by Sidney Govou helped France come from behind to defeat Sweden 3-2 in a friendly on Wednesday.
Veteran Henrik Larsson opened the scoring for the hosts with a spectacular volley from a cross by Kim Kallstrom in the fifth minute. It was the 37th international goal for former Barcelona and Manchester United striker Larsson, who turns 37 next month.
Sweden's lead did not last long though as Karim Benzema equalised 13 minutes later. Govou put France in front in the 61st minute before making it 3-1 with 13 minutes remaining after good work from winger Florent Malouda and captain Thierry Henry.
Kallstrom pulled one back for the Swedes by converting a late penalty.
