Striker Olivier Giroud and center half Laurent Koscielny cleared to resume full training

Published February 05, 2015

France striker Olivier Giroud and center half Laurent Koscielny have been cleared to take part in Thursday's training session after sitting out the previous day's practice to have some physio treatment.

Giroud had some tightness in his left hamstring and Koscielny, his Arsenal club teammate, has some tendinitis in his Achilles tendon, France's team doctor Franck Le Gall said Thursday, adding that center half Mamadou Sakho has recovered from some bruising to his right knee.

All three players are expected to be ready when France opens its Group E campaign against Honduras on Sunday.
