The XV of France, which raised its head in Wales, faces the English who are also invigorated this Saturday evening in Lyon (9 p.m.) at the close of the Rugby World Cup. The scenario to achieve this would be above all surrealism.

We would indeed have to crush England in the same proportions as a year ago at Twickenham (10-53) while this team no longer presents at all the same clumsy and resigned profile. The arithmetic is clear: Grégory Alldritt and his gang can still vie for first place.
