The weekend of February 5 and 6, 2022 began on Rugby European Championshipa sort of Six Nations “B” Tournament, which awards two qualifying places for the 2023 World Cup this season. If one of these two places seems naturally to be awarded to Georgia (winners of 9 of the last 10 editions including the last four), the fight for the second golden ticket remains very open between Romania, Spain and Portugal.
The Portuguese selection, led by its French coach Patrice Lagisquet (3 times French champion with Biarritz Olympique), hit hard, this Sunday, February 6, by snatching a draw against Georgia (25-25) in Tbilisi, ending a Georgian streak of 20 consecutive victories in the competition. Still in the nails for qualification, what are the chances of the Portuguese this year? We talk about it with our guest this evening: Eric Dos SantosPortuguese international second line playing at Anglet Olympique.
Around him, our 5-star cast: Roger Aguerre and Anthony Biscay.
