In tribute to the former Japanese Prime Minister, Shinzo Abe, assassinated on Friday, a minute of silence will be observed by the two teams before the Japan-France test match at the Japan National Stadium in Tokyo this morning.
At the end of this meeting, the captain of the Blues, Charles Ollivon, will give the Japanese captain a wreath of flowers as well as a jersey of the XV of France bearing the name of Shinzo Abe in his memory.
The French Rugby Federation also sent its sincere condolences to the Japanese people.
