France and New Zealand, a historical correction to be feared!
Blues shock, on September 8, during the opening match of the World Cup, New Zealand can expect the worst…
The French XV finished its preparations for the World Cup perfectly. Before taking a few days of “rest” with the family, the Blues succeeded in correcting Australia’s mistakes at the Stade de France (41-17). Success in a way that inspires confidence as the summit clash against New Zealand on September 8, the World Cup opener, looms.
Former France national team player Olivier Magne was particularly appreciative of this show of strength against the Wallabies, who had not won a game since last November. ” This game is reassuring. The first half seemed hard-working and practical, with the players focusing on order. Admittedly, they didn’t leave the frame to let go, but that reassured them to benefit from the result, even if the party struggled a bit during the first forty minutes. On the other hand, in the second half, this French team, following in the footsteps of Antoine Dupont, set fire to gunpowder. Thus he emphasized in the columns of Medi Olympique, adding: In short, this team was serious at first and gave it up in the second.“.
I worry mostly about this New Zealand team
For Olivier Magny, this success cements his status as a favorite with the Blues. ” For me, the “big three” are France, South Africa and Ireland. These are the three nations that have a lot going for them at the dawn of the World Cup. South Africa’s display against New Zealand is a big deal for world rugby. Now, isn’t this black team the weakest in history? I am wondering. truly. I feel New Zealand winning the rugby championship was a sham He completed.
The former Clairmontois even believed in the victory of the Blues in the form of humiliation against the blacks. ” I am particularly worried about this New Zealand team. When I see the level that France can perform over the course of 80 minutes today against Australia, with the “final players” who maintain the same level of performance, and the determination of these players, the opening of the match could be very difficult for the Blacks. It may turn into a correction. He completed. And I weigh my words. The French team really has the potential, just as it did in the Six Nations Championship during its match in England (53-10).»
