The tournament got off to a bad start, after Les Bleus took a real beating against Ireland. Hopes of a Grand Slam were already gone, followed by those of winning the competition, after a draw with Italy. The French XV 's two victories over Scotland and Wales weren't enough, but for the sake of honor, the French will give it their all to win their last Six Nations 2024 match, thisSaturday, March 16, 2024, against England!
France will close the competition at 9pm, this time at Lyon's Groupama Stadium. Fourth with 11 points, tied with Scotland and just behind the English, the XV de France can hope to finish second, if they perform well on the pitch, bearing in mind that the Scots face Ireland, who are still certain to take the title! But we'll have to be wary of the Rose, as the English have produced some fine football this year.
Watch the match live on France 2 and in all the capital's sports bars!
