Is this success at Murrayfield nine months after conceding your only loss of the year there, a sign of the progress made since then?
Charles Ollivon:
Somewhere yes.
We played a consistent match for 80 minutes.
There was real adversity in the face and we held on.
We built our victory over time.
I am very proud of everyone.
Everyone stayed in the frame, not a guy gave up.
Honestly, it's really fun this successful service.
Are you happy with the way against Scotland?
It's just the victory that counts, it's won and it does everyone a lot of good.
We were keen to have a good match here.
It's done.
It's good to finish with a win.
It was a magnificent year 2020.
Everyone would have signed at the beginning of the year, with this group.
We finish with only one defeat (
for six victories, editor's note
) and we knew how to cultivate victory.
With eight changes at kick-off, did you lack cohesion early in the game?
No.
The France group has been the same for five weeks.
We work well together, we have automatisms between us all.

To end with a positive note like that, it is only happiness

How did you experience your first months as captain of the XV of France?
At first there was a little hesitation in the group, some were a little shy.
Now, we are at the heart of this adventure and we are living it well.
We don't want it to stop anymore.
We enjoy ourselves together in the French team.
We just want it to last as long as possible like this ...

We will enjoy it after five weeks together.
