First match of day 3 of the Rugby World Cup this Wednesday September 20.
The French group is in the spotlight this Wednesday, September 20 with the start of the 3rd day of the Rugby World Cup and the match between Italy and Uruguay. A match which could prove crucial for the XV of France because in the event of an improved victory for the Italians against Los Teros, something that the XV of France failed to do, the Blues could miss qualification in the event of a defeat against Italy on the last day.
This will be the 5th meeting between Italy and Uruguay and if the Italians have 4 victories, the last one was quite short, 17-10 in November 2021, enough to promise a balanced duel? In any case, the Uruguayans are ready to fight and know they are expected, as explained by 2nd row Manuel Leindekar. “We were ready for the first match and it will still be the case for the second. We will be expected, but that’s normal. We know that what happened last week (against France) owes nothing to chance and we want to confirm it this week.”
The match will be broadcast unencrypted on M6, the official broadcaster of the Rugby World Cup.
The match kicks off at 5:45 p.m. this Wednesday September 20 at the Allianz Riviera in Nice.
