relive the Black Ferns haka

Les Bleues met the Black Ferns on Saturday, November 20, in Castres, on the occasion of their last match of the autumn tour. The New Zealanders, who had a revenge to take on the Habs after their stinging defeat in the last match, started the match with their traditional haka and thrilled the Pierre-Fabre stadium in Castres. In response, the French started a Marseillaise.

But despite this haka, the New Zealand women could not respond to the French fury. The players ofAnnick hayraud stifled the five-time world champions with an iron defense. Despite a rejuvenated workforce, the Blue pocket their fourth consecutive victory against the Black Ferns (29-7), the second in a week. The haka did not impress them.
