Sport The opener of the French rugby team Romain Ntamack looks back on the victory against England as well as on his performance in the 6 nations.
6 nations. 15 from France. Wilkinson compares Romain Ntamack to Dan Carter before the CrunchThe 15 of France dominated England head and shoulders in the 6 Nations on Saturday. Behind conquering fronts, the hinge composed of Antoine Dupont and Romain Ntamack played in an armchair. We could also see their complicity when the scrum half played a small over the defense for Flament’s double in the second act. An action that stems not only from the work on the video before the match but also from the perfect understanding between the players. “We communicate a lot, so I knew he was going to hit that kick there. I projected myself. And as I saw Thibaud in my blind spot, I tried to touch the ball to put him in his arms“, commented the Toulouse opener via South West. After a November tour where he was criticized, thehe number 10 of the Blues believes he is doing a good 6 Nations. If some would like to see him try more things, a bit like Jalibert when he entered the field at the end of the game, Ntamack knows that he is doing what it takes for the team to win. “I don’t see what you can blame me forhe comments.I think I made a very good start to competition in what I had to do. And having raised the bar compared to the November tour. My Tournament is quite successful.“
6 Nations. With this sensational match, did France seriously hurt English rugby?The opener is often at the center of the debates when the team runs less well or when certain things do not work. This is not new in the France team. Romain Ntamack was able to see it in the past with his predecessors. And he now experiences it under the tricolor tunic. A jersey that he believes he deserves through hard work. “We have a game framework that I think I have respected properly for four years. If it wasn’t, I wouldn’t be here today. What I do is pretty good: the shirt, they don’t give it to me, it’s not a gift. I fight every weekend.“Of course, if he feels there is an opportunity, he seizes it. He has enough talent and experience despite his young age to take on his responsibilities. Nevertheless, he also considers that the group has elements “able to do extraordinary things” on the meadow. Ultimately, his job is simply to put them in the right conditions to shine and make the team win. And if that was ultimately the main role of an opener?
