The dust is beginning to settle on France’s 30-24 win over Ireland rugby this weekend but a new controversy has emerged following the top of the table clash between the league favourites.
Guinness Six Nations revealed a new camera angle of France’s first try scored by Antoine Dupont and it has since caused an uproar on social media.
This new, previously unseen, camera angle was not shown in the stadium during the clash on Sunday.
The try that this covers was the first of the match as France ran a slickly-executed move down their right flank.
The ball passed between a number of Fabien Galthies men before ending up in the grasp of Antoine Dupont who ran in for France Rugby and their first try of the match.
In such a close contest, this really was a pivotal score.
Here is the angle that was posted yesterday.
