French rugby coach Fabien Galthie is angry his captain Antoine Dupont may have suffered a potentially serious knee injury in their 42-27 Six Nations victory over Ireland in Dublin

French rugby coach Fabien Galthie is angry his captain Antoine Dupont may have suffered a potentially serious knee injury in their 42-27 Six Nations victory over Ireland in Dublin

9 March 2025

The halfback limped off the pitch just before the half hour after his knee buckled under pressure from the Irish defence at the back of a ruck.

Galthie says France have recommended the two Irish defenders who made contact with Dupont should appear before the disciplinary commission.

Scotland's warmed up for next weekend's final round clash against France by sinking Wales 35-29 in Edinburgh.
