The management of the French women’s XV revealed, this Thursday, the team composition which will challenge the United States on Saturday (9:30 p.m.), as part of the WXV. Two changes were made in the starting XV, after the inaugural defeat of Les Bleues against Canada (46-24).
Téani Feleu, substitute against Canada, is established in the third center line, Axelle Berthoumieu moves to the bench. The two Feleu sisters (Manaé being the captain) will therefore be on the pre-set. Romane Ménager is moved to position number 6.
The other change to note is the tenure of Cyrielle Banet on the right wing, in place of Mélissande Llorens.
The hinge Pauline Bourdon Sansus and Lina Queyroi is renewed.
