Les Bleus du sept ont réalisé une prestation magnifique en quart de finale du tournoi olympique contre l’Argentine, ce jeudi 25 juillet. Ils sont qualifiés pour les demi-finales !
They had calculated everything! Well seen by the French… Hiding their game for three matches and keeping everything for the quarter-finals, that was well played. What a match by Jérôme Daret's men against the Argentinians, won 26-14.
In the first half. The Blues rolled out. In the wake of Andy Timo and Aaron Grandidier, although not starters at the start of the Tournament, they crossed the line three times. They were especially rewarded by Swan Rebbadj, impressive when he converted the tries in a difficult exercise.

Dupont sinks the Argentinians
In the second act, we started to tremble. The Argentinians had nothing left to lose and came with new ambitions against the undisciplined Tricolores, even reduced to six. They came back to within one score (21-14). But the French solidity spoke, rewarded by a sly try from Antoine Dupont to sink the Pumas.
France will face South Africa in the semi-final, Saturday July 27.
