If the victory of the Stade Toulouse against Leicester left feathers on the English side (80-12), the video analysis of the 72nd minute of the meeting risks giving terrible headaches to the Tigers. And the main culprit is obviously Antoine Dupont.
Antoine Dupont in bulldozer mode with Toulouse
The last performance of Stade Toulouse in the European Cup is not to be shown in any Rugby school on French territory. An 80-12 victory over the English Leicester, punctuated by twelve tries, and a lesson in rugby before the eyes of all of Europe. But the most humiliating part for the Tigers undoubtedly remains this filthy breakthrough from the Frenchman.
Indeed, Antoine Dupont is served after a ball out in a scrum, and instead of making his teammates shine as he knows how to do so well, this time he decides to play Jonah Lomu. The captain of the XV of France starts from the halfway line to find himself in the English 22 meters, like a third center line. Tom Whiteley and Izaia Perese throw themselves at him, but nothing happens, the scrum-half breaks both tackles with disconcerting ease. It takes the reinforcement of a third opponent for Dupont to finally decide to let go of the ball. The sequence is terrible for the pupils.
