Despite the victory Ireland on Sunday (25-22), the France team has not satisfied the terms of the game, mainly because of "mismanagement" by Marc Lievremont. But players want to retain the positive, namely the state of mind beyond reproach they have shown.
Okay, the overall benefit was not yet convincing. Despite the victory, the first reaction from Marc Lievremont Sunday criticized "one begins to say the least disastrous and management of the match the same level for 80 minutes. However, if the coach lights gave his players a little 4 / 10 for their copy delivered to the Aviva Stadium, the Dusart their captain Thierry for his part bestowed a "10/10 in the state of mind." That's is what the Blues wanted to insist after the game. "There was a tremendous solidarity and that's very positive, says the Toulousain. The group has experienced difficult trials in recent times but there reigns a very good mood. We are trying to build small by little. "
quickly led 10-3 after a poor start to the match, the team found the resources to come from behind and Aviva survive in a hostile stadium and resonant. "This is what we must remember, Yoann Huget advance, which has suffered in Dublin for his fourth selection. It was very bad start but nothing dropped." This victory, the Blues have won the mind, like the penalty gained over the last Irish scrum five meters from their line. "Even when they pounded around the in-goal, we have not given up, falls, meets, Lionel Nallet. What I remember most is that we defended well and we do has not been at fault. For that, we had a great team spirit and solidarity. "
"We will not sulk our pleasure"
So too bad if Lievremont has played the "killjoy" in the locker room as he confess himself. Certainly, the waste was still great, with no attack power and defense that conceded three new trials. The group has not made reference that he hoped the match but the players believe that "it was better than against Scotland." And when Francois Trinh-Duc says that their performance was worth "more than 4 / 10", Lionel Nallet insists his joy at having won. "This is the main," he adds. "We will not sulk our pleasure! Concludes Aurelien Rougerie. The group need these moments to win, have a drink and eat together, savoring the victory."
Thursday, players of the team from France will meet in Marcoussis to prepare a trip to England which looks far more complicated. At Twickenham in a fortnight, solidarity and team spirit glimpsed in Dublin will be needed more than ever ... but probably insufficient. The Blues know.
