The blue illusion is over when the Parisse drop went off not far from the poles, in plenty of time expired, while the whole of France was able to breathe a sigh of relief watching the scoreboard that marked 23-21. ( THE TABLES )
Italy rugby has touched the firm in the first day of the 6 Nations in a Stade de France back to life three months after the terror of November 13, when three Islamic suicide bombers tried to wreak havoc among the spectators of the friendly football France-Germany. President Francois Hollande was then in the gallery, which was evacuated in a great hurry. Passionate about rugby, is also back today to drive away the nightmares of the past, along with about 65 thousand spectators who won the fears and waited patiently to reach the stands between tight security.
once sitting as it seemed that, in a moving ‘Marseillaise’ and tricolor choreography, saw that there was great confidence in a French XV renovated but quality, called to redeem suffered a disappointing World against an opponent historically loser. The game, however, were a pain for the fans, for Hollande but especially for Les Bleus new coach Guy Noves. Italy redesigned by Jacques Brunel, with four newcomers in the field and two on the bench, a first line of kids and an unprecedented median, driven by Captain Parisse forced them long on the ropes, taking the result in the balance until the last. The Azzurri have made it clear right away that they are different from the usual team in France has always lost substantial gaps.
With a head start, already 8 ‘Cane has continued Italy with a drop of thirty meters. It seemed the usual flash in the pan, since the 15 ‘the highly anticipated Vakatawa went in goal, turning the enthusiasm, but the Blues continued to attack every ball, often less than half the French camp. Just the captain was on target at 26 ‘by exploiting the work of the forwards, wetting so his 115 / or cap. The score remained low, partly because the players did not see the poles, and France has set on 10-8 in the 40 ‘thanks to Chouly goal at 33′. Shooting, historically point dolens Blues, saw them rather perky. Canna has become the protagonist, first with a kick, then with a goal that has transformed bringing Italy on 18-10 at 60. France was suffering, but driven by the public who sang the Marseillaise is back on with half each of Bonneval ( 15 ‘) transformed from Plisson, who then signed the passing of 20-18 to 28′. Italy has not given in, continuing to fight for every ball and Haimona, recently entered, exploited a punishment for controsorpasso to 34 ‘. Again Plisson has given breath to France, however, forced in the end to undergo certain blue attacks until missing drop Parisse. The captain wanted to apologize in the press room not for the mistake ( “I took the responsibility, if it came I was a hero, but great performance of the team”) but for a blasphemy that had run before the race as he loaded his companions , captured by a camera snuck into the locker room. And ‘bad start, but only in the result, the 6 Nations for the Brunel team. In a week, the Olympic Stadium, there is’ England and there you will be able to give a value to this Saturday in Paris St. Denis, but the coach said he was pleased: “The team has had a good attitude, players were not afraid. I liked the will to go on, – he said – although sometimes we were wrong in defense and had little possession. Now we have to repeat ourselves. “
