RADES (Tunisia), May 31 (AFP): France's preparations for the World Cup suffered a reality check here on Sunday when the 2006 finalists had to come from behind to snatch a 1-1 draw against non-South Africa-bound Tunisia. France turned up in Rades on the back of Wednesday's confidence-boosting 2-1 win over Costa Rica in Lens. As at Lens France's top scorer Thierry Henry found himself on the bench with manager Raymond Domenech preferring to start Chelsea striker Nicolas Anelka.
