The pass of three for the XV of France U20. Les Bleuets played in the U20 World Cup final against Ireland on Friday, July 14, in Cape Town, South Africa. Already crowned in 2018 (generation Romain Ntamack, Cameron Woki, Arthur Vincent) and in 2019 (generation Matthis Lebel, Leo Coly), the XV of France managed the hat-trick only achieved by New Zealand, which had won the first four editions of the competition, slapping the Irish (50-14).

To achieve this feat, Sébastien Calvet’s players spent seven tries against the young Irish who had beaten them by two small points during the last Six Nations Tournament.
