France put on a masterclass of attacking rugby as they thumped Namibia 96-0 in Marseille, scoring 14 tries in a ruthless Rugby World Cup win on Thursday.
It was a record victory for Les Bleus as they cruised to a bonus-point success, with 54 points racked up in the opening half and 42 in a second in a canter.
Damian Penaud (3), Jonathan Danty (2), Charles Ollivon (2), Thibaud Flament, Antoine Dupont, Louis Bielle-Biarrey (2), Baptiste Couilloud and Melvyn Jaminet crossed on a fruitful night for Fabien Galthie’s men, with a penalty try also awarded in the final minute to rubber stamp their biggest ever World Cup win.
