Football. A match between New Zealanders and South Africans in Montpellier this fall

According to information from the New Zealand newspaper Stuff, the match between the New Zealand duo team against South Africa (also a repeat) will be held at the JGL Stadium next November. This meeting is part of the sponsorship of Mohammed Altrad with all the blacks since this year. In fact, New Zealand team meetings (under 20, women, etc.) should take place in France and especially in Montpellier in the coming seasons. In addition to honoring the terms of the contract, this confrontation comes at a time when New Zealand wants South Africa to remain at Sanzar (the organization of the largest countries in the southern hemisphere, running the rugby tournament), while the Springboks are turning more. And more towards Europe and the Six Nations Championship. A way to bridge the rift between the two peoples.

Football. It’s over, the cruiser is the new sponsor of Team All BlacksLeon MacDonald, the current head coach of the Auckland Blues in Super Rugby, with whom he reached the final of the tournament this season, will be head coach of the All Blacks XV, the name given to the New Zealand bis team. In addition to meeting South Africa, they will encounter Canada and the British barbarians. The Barbarians were trained by duo Scott Robertson / Ronan O’Gara in November.

The match in Montpellier is part of a strategy on the part of the New Zealand Football Association to maintain as many links as possible with its biggest opponent. The latter also attempted to stage a final between the winner of Super Rugby and the best South African franchise, the Christchurch Crusaders against the Cape Stormers. Due to the schedule inconsistency, the project remains in the pipeline at the moment. Further proof that New Zealanders absolutely do not want to see South Africa leave the rugby tournament.
