the XV of France ends on a good note by winning against England at home

A Crunch in the pocket to finish well. Less than a week after their encouraging victory in Cardiff, the Blues confirmed to win a crazy match and end their Six Nations Tournament with a great success against England (33-31), Saturday March 16, at Groupama Stadium from Lyon, and a second place in the general classification. Authors of an almost perfect first period, they broke down and conceded two tries in quick succession upon returning from the locker room, before hanging on to catch up.

Thanks to this stunning performance, the Blues won their first victory in front of their home crowd in this Tournament, in the stadium where they won for the last time on their home soil. Above all, they have a third success in a row against the XV de la Rose, something they have not managed to do since the mid-2000s.
