N’en déplaise aux supporters du Stade de France très majoritairement derrière l’Argentine, l’Angleterre a remporté la finale de bronze en battant l’Argentine 23-26 vendredi 27 octobre.

Jamais encore le XV de la Rose n’avait terminé à la troisième place. L’Argentine se console avec la quatrième pour la deuxième fois (après 2015).

Toutes les stats et les données

Sur une pelouse détrempée par plusieurs heures d’une pluie fine, les joueurs ont eu du mal à enchaîner les longues séquences de jeu sans que l’arbitre australien Nic Berry ne siffle un en-avant, une perte de balle, une pénalité.

Longue entrée en matière de l’Argentine

Menée de 13 points après 12 minutes de jeu, l’Argentine a pris le temps avant de rentrer dans son match. Il aura fallu aux Pumas une pénalité d’Owen Farrell (2e) après deux minutes de ping pong, puis un essai transformé du numéro 8 Ben Earl (7e) après une passe de son ouvreur relayée par Marcus Smith et encore une pénalité anglaise (12e) pour que cette séquence à sens unique ne provoque un électrochoc.

Joueurs, les Argentins visaient la touche plutôt que de prendre systématiquement les points comme leurs adversaires. Mais un coup de pied rasant un peu trop long de Santiago Carreras à Emiliano Boffelli les privait d’une première occasion d’essai (16e) au cœur d’une domination de 20 minutes.

Peu amènes sous les ballons hauts, les Argentins, subissant un ballon particulièrement glissant, l’ont joué frontal pour marquer leur premier essai par Tomas Cubelli (35e). En face, les Anglais ont maintenu la distance grâce au jeu au pied de Farrell, officiellement le joueur le plus hué de toute cette Coupe du Monde de Rugby (10-16 à la pause).

La seconde période a confirmé que l’Argentine ne passait pas à côté de son match comme ça avait été le cas la première fois que les deux équipes s’étaient affrontées en match de la poule D à Marseille le 9 septembre (27-10).

Retour à trois points

Dès la 41e, les Pumas prennent le score pour la première fois grâce à un superbe franchissement de Santiago Carreras qui échappe à trois défenseurs pour marquer entre les poteaux. Mais le même Carreras verra son coup de pied de dégagement contré une minute plus tard par le talonneur Theo Dan qui ira aplatir à droite des poteaux.

Les deux équipes se lancent alors dans un faux rythme pendant une trentaine de minutes, tout juste ponctué par une pénalité de Farrell (63e) et une de Nicolas Sanchez (67e).

Portés par une grosse partie des 77 674 spectateurs, les Argentins savent qu’avec trois points d’écart tout peut basculer. Mais à cinq minutes du terme, Sanchez manque une pénalité cruciale. Celle qui aurait pu lancer les deux équipes en prolongation. Les Anglais ne semblent pas très pressés d’en finir alors que le public boue.

Un tampon de George Ford pour stopper net Matteo Carreras et une mêlée deux fois refaite plus tard et l’Angleterre bouclera son mondial par une très honorable troisième place alors qu’on lui donnait peu d’espoir quelques mois avant France 2023 (23-26).

'Matches between Les Bleus and the All Blacks are rarely for the faint-hearted.'

Do you hear yourself? Do you have any concept of world view? Have you tried looking into why people call Ireland ‘arrogant’? Obviously not.


We started calling you arrogant when you called our captain a ‘shit Richie McCaw’. In New Zealand. On our turf. Don’t think that kind of behaviour really calls for respect, does it.


NZ don’t really talk ourselves up, if anything the rugby does it for us. No kiwi goes in the media and says: ‘We are gonna win the RWC’. However, I have found many instance of IRISH media saying that the Irish should win, without a doubt. THAT is disrespectful.


The All Blacks have played good rugby, even some of the best rugby ever, at many points in history, but I don’t think you could find a single instance of one of those players, or the NZ media, saying that they should whitewash their opponents. Ever.


Now, onto your analysis. Ireland DID choke the QF. They beat the champions, they were ranked first coming into it, a lot of players at the peaks of their powers. Its hard to say that they didn’t choke. Obviously, their preparation was just not as good as NZ, and thats all there really is to it.


If Ireland had repsected that ABs team and that QF more, maybe they would’ve prepared properly for it and won. But they didn’t.


Maybe if Ireland had won their QF last RWC, they wouldn’t have to be in the same pool as SA and Scotland. I mean, its called a draw for a reason. NZ got third last RWC, so of course they should get a reasonable pool, and they were ranked pretty highly too. If you want to talk about easy pools, look no further than Pool 3 with England, Australia, Fiji, and Georgia I think?


Now, obviously you don’t remember how that QF ended, so I’ll go ahead and rectify that. Ireland reclaimed the ball off kickoff and marched for 20ish phases into the opposition half. Savea then won a turnover, but the referee refused to give it, so play went on. Finally, at the NZ 22, after not giving up a single penatly in 25 phases of hard defense, Sam Whitelock, the most capped All Black of all time, wins the game with an incredible steal.


Now, NZ players having a go at Ireland. Do you cry when you get hit after making the first swing? We all know Sexton is a prick on the field, its just the truth. And Ioane never backs down from a clash, so he thought he should humble a player who has never won an international knockout game who thought he was all that. Don’t really see the issue, its poetic justice really.
