A first-half penalty from Franck Ribery gave France a 1-0 victory over Colombia Tuesday in their last test match before the European Championships.
The Bayern Munich midfielder converted from the spot in the 24th minute after Barcelona striker Thierry Henry, playing his 100th game for France, was brought down in the area.
Coach Raymond Domenech chose Lyon striker Karim Benzema to partner Henry up front in France's third test match against South American opponents, following a 2-0 win over Ecuador and a goalless draw with Paraguay.
France play Romania on Monday in their first match at Euro 2008, with Group C matches following against the Neherlands and world champions Italy.
