World champions held by France
France drew 0-0 with Italy in a fiery match in Milan to stay on top of Euro 2008 qualifying Group B ahead of their clash with Scotland on Wednesday.
But the French will be without suspended star striker Thierry Henry after he was booked for a foul on Italy defender Fabio Cannavaro.
Italy's Filippo Inzaghi hit the top of the bar in the first half and Bolton striker Nicolas Anelka failed to beat Gianluigi Buffon in a one-on-one after the break.
Ukraine's hopes of reaching Euro 2008 suffered a severe setback as
Georgia hit back with a last-gasp equaliser to deny them two crucial Group B points.
Oleg Shelaev opened the scoring for Oleg Blokhin's team in the ninth minute, and they would have put the game beyond doubt had it not been for a couple of excellent saves from Georgia goalkeeper Giorgi Lomaia.
But with only a one-goal cushion, the hosts were always in with a shout and David Siradze's header a minute from time brought them level.
Ukraine remain fourth in the pool, but have lost ground on
Scotland following their 3-1 win over
Lithuania at Hampden.
