In the extra-sporting turmoil following the complaint of sexual violence against two of the players of the XV of France, Oscar Jegou and Hugo Auradou, and the exclusion of Melvyn Jaminet for racist remarks, the Blues are trying to stay the course on the field. Fabien Galthié’s players will end their tour in South America with a third match, Saturday July 13, the second in a week against Argentina. The context is heavy, which has not for the moment had any impact on the results of the French, winners against the Pumas and Uruguay on Wednesday, each time by 15 points (28-13 then 43-28).
The Tricolores have the opportunity to make a clean sweep in Buenos Aires, starting at 9pm. Captain Baptiste Serin’s teammates will have to show seriousness against a vengeful Argentinians. The semi-finalist of the last World Cup will want to take down the XV du Coq for the first time since June 19, 2016, already as part of a summer tour.
