France coach Laurent Blanc is confident his star midfielder will be fit for the game against Sweden on Tuesday.

Cabaye was replaced midway through the second half of Friday's 2-0 victory over co-hosts Ukraine after feeling a twinge in his thigh.

The Toon midfielder had earlier scored France's second goal and also struck the post, but he had been troubled by a slight thigh problem in the build-up to the game.

However, with France needing just a point against Sweden to be certain of advancing to the quarter-finals, Blanc has no major concerns over Cabaye's fitness.

Laurent Blanc: "I am not worried but we have to be aware of it.

"He had felt a little twinge behind his thigh in training and he felt it again during the match. He then thought it best not to push his luck."
