Defender Lescott gave England the lead when he nodded in Steven Gerrard's free-kick from the right.
But shortly before the break Manchester City team-mate Nasri equalised when he drilled in from 20 yards.
Alou Diarra forced a great save from Joe Hart with a header while England's James Milner fired into the side-netting with the goal at his mercy.
France created the best of the very few clear-cut chances.
Newcastle midfielder Yohan Cabaye had a goalbound half-volley deflected wide, while Karim Benzema had a shot saved low by Hart and another headed clear by England captain Gerrard.
England's next Group D fixture is against Sweden on Friday, with France up against co-hosts Ukraine, Kazinform has learned from BBC. |
