Some desperate defence brings down Rawaca just as he was about to break away and score under the poles. The ball is then lost forward at the ruck and France have the ball again,
French defense holding strong early on. They win a penalty at the ruck after being under immense pressure.
France penalised for not releasing the ball at the ruck and Fiji have a chance to go the length of the field.
France seem to have perfected the tap-back as they make ease work of regathering the ball once again and are on the attack near the Fijian 22m.
What a start! Candelon gathers the ball after a tapback from the kickoff and makes a break down the side to score in the corner.
The teams make their way onto the field.
