The women's XV of France, totally overwhelmed in the first half, let the vice-world champions slip away towards a 12th Grand Slam.


A one-sided match, after a catastrophic first half.

The women's XV of France let slip its dreams of the first Grand Slam since 2018, after being outclassed at Twickenham by the English (38-33), on the last day of the Six Nations Tournament.

After a good but totally sterile start to the match, the French completely took on water in the first act, conceding no less than five tries (33-0 at the break).

Despite a big jump on the way back from the locker room - with tries first from Vernier (56th) and Escudero (60th) then from Gros (76th) and Banet (80th) -, the Blues can harbor enormous regrets.

Intractable on the Old Continent, the Red Roses, reigning vice-world champions, won a 14th title and signed a 12th Grand Slam.
