While Paris was affected by snowfall this Thursday, the match eve training of the French XV was slightly disrupted by the falling snowflakes. Some Tricolores have equipped themselves to avoid catching a cold.
Funny “Captain’s Run” for the Blues. On the eve of its meeting against the Argentine selection, the XV of France carried out its last training on a pitch at the Stade de France which turned white. The reason? It's snowing in nice flakes in the Ile-de-France region. The latter has even been placed on orange snow-ice alert until tomorrow noon.

While the Argentines were the first to set foot on the lawn of the Dyonisian enclosure this Thursday, without being really bothered by the weather conditions, the Tricolores for their part inherited a pretty white coat on the Stade de France meadow.
Among the players, the equipment was out to resist the cold. Captain Antoine Dupont, for example, took out his hat and neck warmer to protect his head, leaving only his eyes visible. As the AFP images show, other players had also had their heads covered and very few ventured to train in shorts. A few snowballs were also thrown. Necessarily.
