Since the pool draw in December 2020, this shock match as the opening of the tournament between French and New Zealanders is expected by all rugby fans.
“The closer we get to it, the more we feel the excitement and the fervor that rises, advanced this Wednesday Antoine Dupont, the best player in the world 2021. We see it everywhere this match, between the supporters, the media and the social networks. But I don’t feel any negative or insane pressure in the team. »
For this shock, Fabien Galthié established a third line without surprise, composed of François Cros, Charles Ollivon and Grégory Alldritt. The hinge is unsurprisingly trained by Captain Antoine Dupont and Matthieu Jalibert. The Bordelais, convincing against Australia, is therefore unsurprisingly the holder designated for the position of ten after the package of Romain Ntamack.
Jonathan Danty will not be able to take his place. Affected in the hamstrings during the last preparation match against Australia, the three-quarter center of La Rochelle is replaced in the starting XV by Yoram Moefana.
The meeting will be followed on the TF1 channel, after the opening ceremony presented by Anne-Claire Coudray and Isabelle Ithurburu, from 8 p.m. The kick-off will be given at 9:15 p.m. on the lawn of Saint-Denis. The competition will continue until October 28.
