This Friday we will see France take on the Irish. The French had a shaky start when they went down against the Pumas. The Irish have also not had the best performances in the pool stages and have been seriously taken apart by the media.

All the past games will not matter on Friday night when these 2 great rugby nations clash in Paris. French captain Ibañez has told the media that he believes that the Irish will lift their game for Friday.
“Maybe they are suffering but that only makes them more dangerous. They still have world class players plus they have won their first two matches.” Ibañez told the press.

Ireland’s coach Eddie O’Sullivan has come forward and said that his players are ready to avenge their recent Six Nations defeat to the French.
“It’s a real motivation for us to know we had the beating of a French team in a big pressure situation, only to let it slip.” said O’Sullivan.

No doubt that Friday night will be a cracker of a game between these to great Rugby Nations. Looking forward to it!

Will Ireland handle Chabal?
