Ibrahimovic to miss France friendly

Ibrahimovic played 90 minutes for the first time since September on Saturday, scoring his country's goal as they were held to a 1-1 draw away to Montenegro in Euro 2016 qualifying Group G.

The striker missed seven weeks of action due to a nagging heel injury, keeping him out of two international matches, as well as nine PSG games.

Three other players: Johan Dahlin, Marcus Berg and Mikael Lustig have also respectively returned to Genclerbirligi, Panathinaikos and Celtic.

Saturday's draw left Sweden second in their pool, four points off early pacesetters Austria - who picked up a fine 1-0 win at home to Fabio Capello's stuttering Russia side.
