A rugby lesson. In the temple of the oval ball, in Twickenham, the XV of France delivered a demonstration to humiliate England (53-10), during the fourth day of the Six Nations Tournament, Saturday March 11. Eighteen years after the last French victory in London in the competition, the Blues of Fabien Galthié won a victory in the great widths against the historic English rival. The widest of the French on this ground in history.

No time to lose, there is a game to be won. During a superb collective movement, Ethan Dumortier travels 50 meters then transmits to Thomas Ramos at the end of the line. Test and transformation for the rear of the Blues, 7 to 0 after 2 minutes of play.

Dominating in all areas of the game against a completely overwhelmed XV de la Rose, the French delivered an excellent copy, in particular thanks to a very high level first period, to conclude the meeting with seven tries on the clock.

This improved victory allows the Blues to outrun their evening opponents in the standings and stay in the race to retain their title.
