Dubaï 7s : l'Afrique du Sud décroche un cinquième titre consécutif

Selvyn Davids a tout donné pour que l’Afrique du Sud, championne en titre, batte l’Argentine 12-7 dans une rencontre très disputée, remportant ainsi son cinquième titre consécutif au Dubaï 7s et lançant sa campagne HSBC SVNS 2024 avec éclat.

Impi Visser avait déjà aplati pour les Blitzboks (3e) lorsque Shilton van Wyk, joueur de la finale en 2022, a de nouveau franchi la ligne à la cinquième minute pour porter le score à 12-0.

L’Argentin Mathias Osadczuk a réduit l’écart à cinq points en début de seconde période (9e), après que Ryan Oosthuizen a reçu un carton jaune pour un plaquage dangereux.

Rosko Specman était à deux doigts de marquer un essai spectaculaire, mais il a perdu le ballon – et a heurté un officiel – dans le coin, tandis que l’Afrique du Sud résistait à la riposte argentine.

La semaine prochaine, les Series mettront le cap vers l’Afrique du Sud, et dans cette perspective, le résultat de la finale de Dubaï ne pouvait pas mieux tomber. Les supporters espèrent que le week-end prochain, au Cap, les Sud-Africains feront un doublé.

Le sélectionneur par intérim de l’Afrique du Sud, Philip Snyman, a salué les « performances incroyables de son équipe tout au long du week-end ».

« Nous avons dit que nous voulions tout donner aujourd’hui », a-t-il déclaré. « Peu importe le résultat, nous voulons nous regarder dans les yeux et avoir le sourire. Même avec le carton jaune de ce soir, ils ont vraiment joué les uns pour les autres, ils ont joué pour leur maillot et ils ont redonné de la fierté au maillot des Springboks. »

Gagner des matchs serrés est une caractéristique déterminante des champions – et l’Afrique du Sud s’est préparée à tenter de remporter un cinquième titre consécutif avec une victoire de haute intensité 14-7 sur les Fidji dans le dernier carré.

Les champions en titre du Dubai 7s avaient entamé la journée des phases finales – après leur remarquable remontée face à la Nouvelle-Zélande lors de la première journée – par une confortable victoire 24-7 sur l’Australie.

« Nous nous sommes dit qu’hier ne comptait pas », a expliqué Selvyn Davids après cette première victoire de la journée. « Nous n’avons encore rien gagné. Nous savions que le premier match de la deuxième journée était le plus difficile et le plus important. »

Marcos Moneta – qui d’autre ? – a inscrit deux essais pour permettre à l’Argentine de combler son retard de 14-0 et de remporter son quart de finale contre les Samoa 21-14, ce qui lui permettait d’affronter la Nouvelle-Zélande en demi-finale.

En demi-finale, l’éternel Gaston Revol, 37 ans, qui participait à son 99e tournoi de rugby à sept, a été celui qui a marqué l’essai fatidique pour l’Argentine, laquelle a remonté au score pour battre la Nouvelle-Zélande 21-19 et se qualifier pour la première finale de son histoire à Dubaï.

Les All Blacks Sevens décrochent le bronze

Fehi Fineanganofo a passé deux défenseurs pour marquer l’essai victorieux de la finale de bronze. La Nouvelle-Zélande a battu les Fidji 17-12 à l’issue d’une rencontre tendue qui aurait pu donner lieu à une finale.

Les All Blacks Sevens ont une nouvelle fois connu un match très serré, cinq de leurs six matchs ayant été décidés par une marge de cinq points ou moins.

Le match semblait s’acheminer vers les prolongations, l’horloge égrenant les dernières secondes lorsque les All Blacks Sevens ont fait glisser le ballon vers Fineanganafo, qui avait encore quelques efforts à faire pour l’aplatir.

La première période, qui s’était déroulée sur un faux rythme, s’est animée juste avant la mi-temps, lorsque le capitaine fidjien Joseva Talacolo (7e) et le Néo-Zélandais Akuila Rokolisoa (8e) ont échangé des essais avant que Cody Vai (10e) et Manueli Maisamoa (1e) ne prennent la suite, jusqu’à ce que l’essai final de Fehi soit marqué (15e).

« Les garçons étaient un peu déçus de la demi-finale. Nous voulions simplement nous reprendre. Je pense que nous l’avons fait, et les garçons seront heureux pour le reste de la nuit », a confié Fineanganafo juste après le match.

L’Irlande remporte de précieux points

Levi Milford a marqué pour les Samoa sur la dernière action de leur match pour la cinquième place contre l’Irlande, mais cela n’a pas suffi pour remporter le match. L’Irlande s’est imposée 28-5 pour lancer sa campagne HSBC SVNS 2024 avec de précieux points.

L’Irlandais Harry McNulty s’est montré satisfait de la performance de son équipe à Dubaï, mais a déclaré qu’elle devait s’améliorer la semaine prochaine au Cap.  « Je ne pense pas qu’il y ait une quantité incroyable de travail à faire en plus – il s’agit de s’assurer que l’on soit constant », a-t-il indiqué. « Nous parlons beaucoup de cette régularité à chaque match, à chaque performance, on s’améliore un peu plus. »

Le sélectionneur de l’Australie, John Manenti, a admis que la campagne de son équipe à Dubaï n’avait pas été à la hauteur, après que les Australiens se soient emparés de la septième place grâce à une victoire 26-12 sur les Etats-Unis, mais il a estimé que sa jeune équipe avait encore des progrès à faire.

« C’est un début », a-t-il souligné. « Nous avons beaucoup de travail à faire. Nous avions quelques garçons qui revenaient de blessures assez sérieuses et c’était leur premier match depuis un certain temps. Ils seront meilleurs la semaine prochaine, et nous avons eu quelques débutants aussi. Il ne fait aucun doute que nous devrons porter notre niveau à un niveau plus élevé la semaine prochaine. »

La Grande-Bretagne n’a pas été en mesure de réitérer sa remarquable victoire sur les Fidji lors de la première journée, terminant 10e après avoir perdu le match pour la 9e place contre la France 22-0.

Le match pour la 11e place entre l’Espagne et le Canada, deux équipes qui n’avaient pas encore remporté de victoire lorsqu’elles se sont rencontrées à Dubaï, s’est terminé sur un score de 19-14 en faveur des Espagnols.

Les résultats de France 7 masculin :

  • Demi-finale pour la 9e place : France 6 – 12 Espagne
  • Finale pour la 9e place : France 22 – 0 Grande-Bretagne

Super Rugby Pacific's rebirth can finally restore the missing All Blacks edge

Like many crypto enthusiasts, My dad was initially drawn to the platform by its seemingly professional interface, an array of cryptocurrencies available for trading, and the alluring promises of high returns. The exchange looked reputable, offering a seamless user experience. Dad decided to deposit a significant amount of $50,000 to try his hand at crypto trading. Everything appeared legitimate, and after a few weeks, his account balance had grown to over $200,000. I remember how thrilled he was with his success and wanted to cash out some of his profits. However, when he tried to withdraw funds, problems began to emerge. The platform’s customer service team contacted him with an urgent request: to unlock his funds, he would need to deposit an additional $40,000. The explanation provided was that there were "processing fees" associated with large withdrawals, and that this extra deposit was required before the investor could access any of his money. That’s when I began doing my research and in the process, I found that this is in fact a common scheme. My brother in-law recommended a Tech company called GearHead Engineers, which has been helping victims like my dad to successfully withdraw their funds without paying the unfair fees. We did contact them through their email, gearhead(@)engineer(.)com and after a series of communication, they got back every single penny back. This only took them 4 days. I must admit that we were impatient but it turned out great. Reach out to them.

The Team That Reclaimed My Stolen Cryptocurrency/ Hack Savvy Tech


As an Australian student with a deep passion for studying law in the UK, I have always been committed to pursuing higher education and advancing my career. My dream was to attend one of the prestigious universities in the UK, and like many students, I was searching for scholarships to ease the financial burden of studying abroad. However, what began as an exciting opportunity soon turned into a nightmare.I came across an advertisement on Facebook for a scholarship opportunity, which promised to cover all my tuition fees and living expenses. The offer seemed too good to be true, but as a young student eager to pursue my dreams, I didn’t think twice. The scholarship application process appeared legitimate, and I was soon in contact with someone who claimed to represent a reputable organization. I was asked to pay an upfront fee as part of the application process, which I believed would be reimbursed once I received the scholarship. Excited about the possibility of studying in the UK, I didn't hesitate to pay the required amount AUD 15,000.The money I paid wasn’t just from my own savings; my parents had to borrow the money to help me fulfill my dream. They trusted that I was making the right decision, and they supported me in this endeavor, hoping that it would set me on a path to a successful future. Unfortunately, as the weeks passed, I received no updates, and all communication from the supposed scholarship provider suddenly stopped. When I tried to reach out, the contact information I had was no longer working, and the website I had applied through was taken down. Realizing that I had fallen victim to a scam, I was devastated. The money, which my parents had borrowed with great effort and sacrifice, was gone, and my hopes for studying abroad seemed shattered.Feeling helpless, I turned to various recovery services, hoping that someone could help me get my money back. Most services offered little more than false promises and vague advice, leaving me feeling more frustrated than ever. That’s when I discovered HACK SAVVY TECH. After extensive research and reading positive reviews from other scam victims, I decided to give them a try. HACK SAVVY TECH acted swiftly, gathering all the necessary information, tracking the scammer's digital footprint, and initiating the recovery process.
