The XV of France brilliantly won against New Zealand on Saturday, November 20, with a score of 40 to 25. The biggest French victory against the All Blacks.

The spectators of the Stade de France and the fans of rugby spent a beautiful evening, Saturday, November 20, with the impressive success of the XV of France against New Zealand, on the score of 40 to 25. The actions of the young French people are marked with nerve and undermine the All-Blacks, like the crazy revival of Romain Ntamack, symbol of an uninhibited team. Actions full of character that hit the mark in the face of the best in world rugby.

During the first period of the meeting, the French were relentless and chained the trials, including Peato Mauvaka, hooker of the Blues and author of two registered trials. A moving moment for the player, facing his father’s favorite team. “I could not describe my emotions”, adds the player after the match. In the second half, New Zealand picked up the score, before being cooled by a test from Damian Penaud. A performance that had not been seen in France for 21 years.
