The coach of the XV of France Fabien Galthié has denied any responsibility in the fiasco of the health bubble of the Blues, affected by 17 cases of Covid-19 after their match against Ireland .

The boss of the tricolors took refuge behind the investigation of the French Rugby Federation, which exonerates him from any fault in these contaminations despite his exits from the health bubble.

A high risk crunch for the Blues.

A month after its last match, the XV of France is therefore aiming this Saturday for a third success in the competition, the only way to erase the inglorious episode of the Covid-19 cluster in Marcoussis.
