Friday evening, the French rugby team faces Scotland to try to win the Six Nations Tournament. Even if the Blues start favorites, the Scottish press intends to see their own make a big blow at the Stade de France.
It’s a highly anticipated match: Friday evening, the XV of France faces the XV of Chardon at the Stade de France. A meeting that would allow the Blues, with a victory of at least four tries and 21 points differences, to win the Six Nations Tournament, which has not happened for eleven years. The stake goes back to the block of the Blues already very in shape, and the pressure begins to rise across the Channel. In the Scottish press, Friday night’s rugby match against the France team is omnipresent. The Edinburgh daily announces that online betting sites even give the Blues favorites. For The Herald beating this French team in top form is “a colossal challenge”.
“Fight fire with fire”
The daily quotes Scottish coach Gregor Townsend, who promises to “fight fire with fire” against the Blues. Even if he recognizes that “the victory of the XV of France against Ireland, demonstrated the quality of this team which today has all its best players”.
The Scots are nevertheless far from admitting defeat. The Scotsman title on the hope of a victory like that of 1999: it is the last time that Scotland beat France in Paris. A match that is in the pantheon of the best Scottish performances, according to the daily.
