The women’s XV of France has made an appointment with England

This is a good thing done for the XV of France women. After Italy (39-6), Ireland (40-5) and Scotland (28-8), Les Bleues recorded their fourth bonus victory in four games of the Six Nations Tournament. The latter still have to play Sunday against Ireland, but they have dominated their subject so much since the start of the Tournament that it is hard to see what could prevent the “Crunch” next Saturday in Bayonne from being decisive for the Grand Slam.

Privilege of programming, France, the third nation in the world, will have two additional days to recover after having sent a mixed message to the “Red Roses”, defending champions, on Friday evening.

Numerous handball errors after half-time

After having stammered their rugby during the first three meetings, having carried out a large review of the workforce, the French women gave the Welsh a new imperfect copy on the synthetic lawn of Arms Park. With this time their typical team of the moment, they largely dominated the conquest, defended with application in their weak times and offered some good offensive sequences, rewarded with five tries. Things were a little more difficult after the break, with in particular numerous handling errors, such as the try scored at the last minute by the Welsh. Dross not to be repeated next weekend in Jean-Dauger against the English, at the top of the world ranking.
