From the 7th minute, Théo Attissogbe flattened in a corner to allow the Bleuets to lead 7-0. In the 21st minute, behind a maul, the powerful Catalan Tuilagi doubled the strength. And 14-0 thanks to the faultless scorer La Rochelle Reus.
In the 32nd minute, it was the turn of Clermont scrum-half Baptiste Jauneau to flatten an offering from Attissogbe. For a French team leading 21-0 at the break.
As soon as the resumption, the massive Posolo Tuilagi (1.92 m, 150 kg!) rages again. A double to allow the young Roosters to fly away 28 to 0 (44th), Hugo Reus continuing his faultless since the start of the competition (100% success against Japan in the opening).
The Baby Blacks finally revolt, finally manage to cross the goal line of the Bleuets. A New Zealand return immediately calmed down. A huge charge from Toulagi which takes everything over twenty meters and Liufau scores the 5th and last tricolor try. Which seals the victory, 35 to 14.
