Welcome to the live broadcast dedicated to the match between France and England, as part of the last day of the Six Nations Tournament.
What is it about ? From the fifth and final meeting of the French XV in the 2024 edition of the Six Nations Tournament. The Blues, defeated by Italy (13-13 draw on the third day), returned to success against Wales, Sunday March 10, in Cardiff (24-45). Fabien Galthié’s men can still win the title, in the event of a bonus victory in this crunch and Ireland’s defeat against Scotland without bonus.
Or ? At the Groupama Stadium in Décines-Charpieu (Rhône), in the Lyon suburbs.
At what time ? 21 hours.
On which channel ? France 2.
Who hosts the live? Valentin Baudry and Oscar Korbosli at the back, from the Austerlitz cauldron, with Valentin Moinard in the front row (in the stands, not on the pitch).
