Thierry Henry has stated his fears that France may well fail to reach the 2006 World Cup in Germany. They currently lead the group on goal difference from Israel, but have Switzerland and the Republic of Ireland breathing down their necks.

“We're worried. I don't go home every night telling myself that everything is great. So yes, we're worried," said Henry.

"It's not just because you have great players in your team that you are going to automatically win."

"The match against Israel was really the first time we controlled a match," he added.

"We were also controlling things at the back and against Switzerland we did create chances."
