The FC Grenoble rugby player had greatly contributed to his team’s victory against Wales in the Six Nations Tournament.
Italy ended a streak of 36 straight defeats in the Six Nations Tournament by winning against Wales on Saturday 19 March. And it was Ange Capuozzo (22), for the first time at the back, who was the hero of this historic victory. In just eleven seconds, the Grenoble player electrocuted the Welsh. Stage 2 met him.
22 years old, Angel Capuozzo is a pure product of FC Grenoble rugby. Son of a French father of Italian parents, and a Franco-Malagasy mother, the young fullback offered himself to the Italian Federation in 2018, in the under-20s. In France, he had gone under the radar. “Today I’m French and Italian, and I’m very happy like that. Of course I feel Italian, and even more so after the Six Nations Tournament. French”entrusts Angel Capuozzo.
He played forty Pro D2 games and was voted co-top scorer last season. Next year, Ange Capuozzo will discover the Top 14 and will evolve under the colors of Toulouse.
