Qualified in the semi-finals of the Sevens Nations Series, the French women's Rugby team at 7 faced immense New Zealand, faced with which they had undergone a first 43-0 lesson in CAP. So in Perth, the question was whether we were going to live a tricolor reaction, or a new rugby butchery. The answer was final.
Rugby 7 smiles (finally) at the FFL
From the first minutes of the game, Michaela Brake does not register one, but two trials for Black Ferns. The French team has not even had time to enter her match that she has to go and collect the ball twice in her in-goal. The beginning of the meeting that we particularly like.
The score is 12-0, before this same Michaela Brake appears his third try, still in the first period. Zero valve. New Zealand leads 17-0 to the break, and condemns the Blue to a raising. But it will obviously be the opposite.
Michaela Brake, our heroine of the day
Ah by the way we forgot, as soon as the locker room returns, Michaela Brake plants a fourth essay, worthy of a jubilee where all her opponents let her shine. Unfortunately for the New Zealander, she will not be the only one to distinguish herself, her compatriot Jorja Miller also going from his little essay. At the same time, it is far too tempting in the face of a Gruyère defense.
-Then to top it off, the French team collects a 100 -meter test, the sixth of the match. 36-0. What do the people ask? Pure entertainment.
Happiness is total, before Anne Ciofani comes to pluck the atmosphere with her essay, and save the honor of the French (36-7). The Blues are eliminated from the semi-finals, but can still win the chocolate medal that is so much to our hearts. Even at the other end of the world, the tricolor know-how shines with a thousand lights.
