At 25, the scrum-half has just won the Six Nations Tournament with the XV of France, as captain. A consecration for the one who was voted the best player in the world in 2021.
Antoine Dupont lifted his first trophy with the French rugby team on the evening of Saturday March 19. The XV of France has indeed won the Six Nations Tournament. “We think back to all the sacrifices, all the training, everything we have endured for weeks”was moved Antoine Dupont, captain of the team, at the end of the match which opposed him to England.
All those who rubbed shoulders with him on a rugby field say it: Antoine Dupont is starving. In 2017, he joined Stade Toulouse, before becoming captain of the France team. “He is someone who has a great knowledge of the game and who is not only able to read situations, but above all to anticipate them”, explains Laurent Labit, coach of the backs of the XV of France. Crowned best player in the world in 2021, and now courted by the media, Antoine Dupont has changed in dimension.
