players from Toulouse and La Rochelle in the typical team of the 2nd day
Zapping World Fifteen Shield of Brennus, XV of the Rose, World Cup 2023…
The standard team for the 2nd day of the Champions Cup was revealed on Tuesday evening. And inside, there are three French players. The hinge of this typical team, first of all, is 100% French, with Antoine Dupont in the scrum and Antoine Hastoy at the opening. The third Frenchman is another Stade Toulousain player: winger Lucas Tauzin.
The presence of these three players in the standard team is quite logical given the performances of their clubs first of all, but also their individual performances. Antoine Hastoy scored 26 of his side’s 36 points against Ulster and missed none of his kicks. Antoine Dupont was, once again, monstrous against Sale, with his two tries in particular. And Lucas Tauzin also showed himself in his best light, with a test in particular.
