Vincent Moscato spoke about the upcoming match against Argentina, scheduled for this Friday evening at the Stade de France.
He explains that he fears this meeting against the Pumas.
According to him, the Blues could lose this match if they do not take the Argentines seriously. Extract:
“Over the last 20 years, you have lost 7 or 8 matches against the Argentinians. So you know you can move on to the camera operator. When you see their match against Ireland, you wonder how they lost to Ireland. This match is decided by refereeing! They gave Italy 55 points! And I don't remember when we gave Italy 55 points! You have a team that plays in the Southern Hemisphere, which is tough and you can fall by the wayside! Not because you're worn out, not at all.
By being too playful you can lose! There is no catch. Everyone knows who the Argentinians are. The French have been warned! Everyone knows and the week was studious, as much as the week before the Blacks!”
Denis Charvet fears this match enormously. Extract:
“It's not a trap at all because Argentina has progressed a lot. They are among the best today. I have the impression that they have no weakness because they have quality in all lines. They weren't consistent before. Now they last 80 minutes and they only finish Ireland! They beat the Blacks this year in the Four-Nations. An incredible match.
This match, I fear! Because there are a lot of Pumas players who play in France and they know us perfectly well. They know us and we have everything to lose against them, there is everything to fear. And they are in good shape! They are impressive! We need a big fight, we have to take them in the rucks! They impressed me in Ireland because they won the ruck battle and the Irish are incredible in this area. So the referee didn't want to give them the penalty at the end. But they were formidable even in closed scrums. They have quality everywhere. We know what to expect!”
