video. France – New Zealand: “We were denied the match!” Was the blacks’ second attempt correct?
Early in the second half, the All Blacks scored a try that looked controversial after a clear forward pass from Rico Ioane to his winger Mark Tilia.
As in the first half, the Blues were dealt another blow to the head on Friday night against the All Blacks, conceding a try as soon as they returned from the dressing room via an ‘electric’ Mark Tilia. Shortly before the French 22-meter line, Rico Ioane threw his winger down the left. The latter recovers the ball before scoring his second attempt.
A decision that immediately aroused incomprehension from French fans, but also from the audience at the Stade de France. In fact, this attempt could (and should) have been canceled out by a striker from Rico Ioane. But that wasn’t the case, Jacko Bieber decided to check it out.
What’s the point of organizing a World Cup if it’s for New Zealand to have in-house arbitration? #Franzel

On X (formerly Twitter), netizens expressed their annoyance at this new arbitrator’s decision. One person even commented, “We were robbed of the game so much.” An event with important consequences since this attempt allowed the All Blacks to regain the advantage in this second half.
