Rugby: France beat Fiji 54-17, but lose Romain Ntamack to injury
Published
The French rugby team comfortably beat Fiji by 54 to 17. The Blues showed an effective attack throughout the match. However, this victory was also marked by bad news for the coaching staff.
Indeed, Romain Ntamack had to leave the pitch due to an injury. This absence is a major problem for the team, as the player is a key element of the kicking game and the organisation of play. Before this match, the Blues were already without Matthieu Jalibert, who cannot play at the moment. The head coach therefore has to find new solutions for the fly-half position.
After the match, Fabien Galthié, the head coach of the team, explained the situation to the press. He declared: "We have six days to do something unimaginable". This sentence shows that the staff has little time to prepare for the next match and to adapt the squad to the players' absences.
For French supporters, this success is positive on the sporting level, but the health condition of Romain Ntamack will be closely monitored in the coming days. Official information about the length of his absence has not yet been released.
