45+1'

CLOSE! Grigore concedes a corner at the end of this half. In it comes from Payet and headed over the bar from Giroud!

45'

Two added minutes at the end of this half.

44'

Giroud caught high by Rat and he goes into the book.

43'

Payet sent flying by Pintilli and France have a dangerous free kick. In it comes but not his best and easily cleared. It comes back in and Pogba has a swing at fresh air under pressure from Pintilli.

42'

Now Koscielny barged over by Andone and France have a free kick. Lloris has been largely a spectator after that opening save.

41'

Here's that second France chance for Griezmann.

40'

Andone leaves the field for some treatment. The French fans don’t like it but he was definitely fouled.

39'

Andone goes down after what looked like a high foot from Koscielny. Looked like a free kick on the edge of the box but France escape.

38'

37'

France starting to look dangerous and Giroud’s flick finds Griezmann fractionally offside. Almost in again.

36'

CHANCE! Payet fizzes his cross into Griezmann and it takes the slightest deflection just wide of the post. Goal kick given, however.

35'

34'

Romania working hard to win the ball back but looked stretched when they have it and are struggling to create.

33'

STAT: France are unbeaten in their last 10 matches versus Romania: W5-D5. Their last defeat against Romania dates back to 8 April 1972, 2-0 in a friendly in Bucharest.

32'

Yellow card for Chiricheş for a challenge on Giroud. Tottenham vs Arsenal revisited.

31'

Pintilii goes down and stays down before limping off. He has a drink and looks like he’ll be fine to continue.

30'

Just two goals conceded for Romania in the qualifiers and that was the meanest defence during qualifying. France finding that out.

29'

27'

Pogba has Matuidi and Griezmann available but goes for glory himself and fires wide.

26'

Rami looks for Giroud but it’s a great foot in from Grigore at the expense of a corner. Tătăruşanu touches it wide for another corner. Payet takes again but this time comfortable for the keeper.
