If the Blues began the Sevens Nations Series in Perth in Rugby at 7, with two victories in as many games, the pressure was on the shoulders of their female counterparts in the worst. Indeed, more than ever, we expected compensation with the performance of men. But think again, we have suffered the same fate.
French women have no gifts for rugby at 7
For their entry into these Sevens Nations Series in Perth, the French women's rugby team at 7 faced the Spanish. And facing our neighbors in the Pyrenees, how to say, there was no match. Well helped by the double of Alycia Christiaens, the French spent no less than five trials in total in Spain, and won 33-5. We knew better as a failed start.
But what is painful with rugby at 7 is that we do not even have time to pull ourselves that a new match comes just behind. In the same day. This time, it is the Chinese who meet the Bleues road. And if the first period seems tight, a tricolor test just before the break crucifies the Asians (and we, at the same time). France wins the 21-0 match, and signs an odious flawless. In total, the Bleues flattened eight tests, and marked 54 points for only 5 cashed in the space of a few hours. A day at work like any other with rugby at 7.
-This double victory allows the French women's team to qualify for the quarterfinals, even before facing the Australian locals tomorrow morning as part of the last group match. A disaster.
