France completed a remarkable come-back as they claimed a 3-0 win over Ukraine in Paris, which saw them win-out 3-2 on aggregate.

The beleaguered French had gone into the game 2 - 0 down and seemingly down and out.

But they took a second leg lead through Liverpool's Mamadou Sakho in the 22nd minute.

12 minutes later Karim Benzema made it 2 - 0 from an offside position after he had an early effort wrongly ruled out.

It went from bad to worse for Ukraine early in the second half when Yevhen Khacheridi was sent off.

France completed the comeback when Oleg Gusev bundled into his own net to send Les Blues to the World Cup.
