Make way for the big oval meeting! The XV of France, male and female, will take part in this new edition of the Six Nations Tournament, a major event in European and even world rugby.
Fabien Galthié’s players will start their competition on February 6 at the Stade de France against Italy (4 p.m.) before facing Ireland, a week later, again at home (5:45 p.m.). Disappointed to finish in second position in the last edition, Antoine Dupont’s teammates will be keen to take their revenge, especially against the Welsh defending champions and the eternal English rivals.
The XV de la Rose will also be the last opponent of the French, on March 19 at 9 p.m. The XV of France arrives in full confidence on the Tournament after having beaten the All Blacks during its last match. The meetings will be followed live on the antennas of France Télévisions and france.tv.
