France could miss out on Brazil 2014

Greece gave themselves a buffer ahead of their trip to Bucharest, Croatia missed an opportunity to put away their tie in Iceland, and Cristiano Ronaldo came up big against Sweden.

Head coach Deschamps was a part of the French team that missed out in 1994 after losing their final two qualifying matches against Israel and Bulgaria.

France is on the brink of missing their first World Cup in 20 years, thanks to goals by Roman Zozulyn and Andriy Yarmolenko, Les Bleus will need to turn around a two-goal deficit next week in France. Compounding their problems.

France will need to do so without one of their best defenders, with Laurent Koscielny‘s stoppage time antics earning the center half a straight red card.
