The XV of France, so brilliant offensively since the start of the Tournament, won Friday in Cardiff thanks to an iron defense.
Solidarity is not an empty word in this France team. It is palpable in the rows and on the lawn. “I can leave everything on the pitch”, says second row Cameron Woki. It is thanks to this abnegation that the Blues managed, in pain, to stem the Welsh assaults, Friday March 11, to sign a fourth victory in a row (9-13) in the Tournament and continue to dream of the Grand Slam.
With 91% success in tackles since the start of the event, the French are present in defense. A new identity that undeniably bears the mark of Shaun Edwards, the English coach of the tricolor defense for two years. “We want to follow this guy”, admits, admiringly, Anthony Jelonch, in the report for Stade 2. Until the Grand Slam? It is now quite possible, provided they beat England next Saturday at the Stade de France.
