FRANCE VS IRELAND | France HUMILIATE Ireland in Six Nations | 6 NATIONS 2026

Описание: France sent a thunderous message to the rest of the Six Nations by completely dismantling Ireland in the opening game of the championship. This wasn’t just a win — it was a humiliation built on speed, precision, and ruthless execution.

From the very first exchanges, Ireland struggled to cope with the relentless French kicking game, repeatedly being turned around, pinned back, and forced into poor exits. France controlled territory with ease, punished every mistake, and played the game at a tempo Ireland simply could not live with.

The contrast in speed was brutal. France attacked with pace, width, and intent, constantly stretching Ireland’s defensive line and exposing gaps all over the park. Whether it was broken-field chaos, rapid recycle at the ruck, or lethal counter-attacks, France looked a level above.

Ireland, usually so composed and accurate, were rattled. Their structure fell apart under pressure, their kicking failed to relieve stress, and their defence couldn’t slow France down once momentum built.
