Improved victory for the French team. The Blue largely dominated the Italians (38-15) this Sunday for the 3rd day of the Six Nations Tournament. Kondé (2nd), Deshaye (23rd), Escudero (31st), Llorens (38th), Khalfaoui (44th) and Fall (63rd) all scored a try. The Italian D’Inca, for Italy, scored a double. Thanks to this success, the players of the Mignot-Ortiz duo maintain their second place, one point behind the English untouchables.
The French women were quick to put themselves in order. It took two minutes for the girls of Gaelle Mignot and David Ortiz to take the lead thanks to a Konde try transformed by Queyroi. The French opening half was not imperial on foot (4/6). If Rigoni reduced the gap by scoring a penalty (7-3, 21st), the French steamroller moved forward again. Deshayes (22nd), Escudero (30th) and Llorens (37th) all managed to flatten the ball into the Italian goal.
Returning from the locker room, the Italians were once again stung from the start of the second half. Elected player of the match, Khalfaoui tried before Fall hit the nail on the head. With the match over, both benches were emptied. France and Italy made their 8 respective changes. There were then 10 minutes of play left. The French relaxed and conceded a second Italian try. Part of his camp, Inca made a crazy race to score the try (76th). His second after that which occurred in the 54th minute.
Next Sunday, France will meet on Welsh soil to face the last of the tournament.
