And an Irishman, for me the highlight was Dupont holping up Mack on the line. That's what the 6 Nations is, that desire!
Honestly you could go 10 more years and not see a more impressive try saving tackle. Especially great when you consider size difference.
The body mechanics he used were so clever it's the only way somone of his size could have stopped him in that particular position but you also still needed insane strength.
I'm Honestly so so impressed with it, just like you.
Helluva tackle. Rugby at the highest level.
great tackle, but not a massive difference in terms of weight between them
o(8
I totally agree about Mack Hansen getting held up
Even in defeat France gives rugby fans some incredible moments, Penaud's try and Dupont's anti-gravitational tackle! One of the history books.
Strength of Dupont to take Hansen (No. 14) down before the line that time! -- Great stuff!
Quelle mn
Embarrassing for Hansen that
@@epicchess2021 how would he? He had just picked up the ball and had no momentum.
@@RazorMouth by hitting the gym, he doesn’t take his S & C serious enough for an international in my view
I’m so proud of our Lad’s ❤️🇮🇪
France 🇫🇷 wow hold your heads up high. Fantastic display of rugby. Truly one of the best Game’s I’ve seen 🇮🇪🇫🇷❤️❤️
Congratulations to Ireland from France
Can’t wait for the next game between our teams
World Cup final in Paris !
@@djharto4917 I didn't think that was a possibility? I thought if both teams went as far, neither could meet at a world cup final game?
No we can meet, Ireland could get nz in quarters then we would meet
bonne chance en le coup du monde!
I enjoy watching France as they play beautiful rugby- greetings from Ireland!
Irish absolutely unstoppable against an outstanding french team. What a game!
100%!

Even if I don’t share 100% of the point of view
referee man of the match
@T C he took 7 points away to France and gave 7 to Ireland, France were better, France lost to 15 players
@T C Hey
"Only yellow".
It's a joke ?
He goes alone kiss the shoulder after the schock because he forgot his seatbelt....
The shoulder don't hit the head at first.
However this match was really good time.
See you soon at the world cup.
As a neutral Englishman this was one of the best games of rugby I have seen in many years well played to both teams and congratulations to Ireland. Everyone involved should be proud.
I think the referee helped keep the game alive. Had it been Carl Dixon, or Andrew Brace, to name but two, I doubt it would have been half as much fun to watch.
Yes incredible game, doesn't get much better .
Irish = one forward pass,, one foot out of play = reff and tmo sleeping as usually every game globally so,, go figure
@@johnnyholtzhausen3493 Ah the salty Saffa. The same things have happened in games for SA, you dont hear the other countries complaining. Take a few months off will you!
@@johnnyholtzhausen3493 Looks like you placed a bet on France 😂👍 lol
Watched it in a bar in Portugal. 3 Irish and 10 or 12 English. All the English were cheering for Ireland. Fair play. Deadly game!!
Congrats to Ireland the best team in the world without hesitate now do the grand slam from a French fan 🇨🇵🤝🇨🇮
see you for the Rematch in the Autumn :)
@@kurtpunchesthings2411 without Barnes and with good picture for thé outline
hmm
South Africa is the best team in the world
Great game by Ireland. But Dupont's quality as the French #9 is unbelievable. That tackle!
Ringrose has been playing out of his skin for Leinster, it was so deserved that he scored the incredible try at the end. The same could have been said about Doris. Both sensational!
put him on the wing. he's a strike runner
dude i was fucking screaming my head off when he got that Try GARRRRRRY RING ROSSSSSE
man beat 2 tacklers to get that try
The commentator's line after the Penaud try "escargot he is not" is pure gold.
I thought the 'blood' and 'vampire' comment was pretty funny too
The commentator had some serious gems.
Ireland a fair crack for world cup glory. As an AB fan I wouldn't be disappointed. Love coach Farrel, love the team.
A hell of 1st half, what an intensity !
Unbelievable game. Seems like we have a new rivalry in the 6N the last 2 years.
Toulouse is my 2nd favourite team after Leinster 👍
I spent about a month in the south of France in 2019, a lot of it in Toulouse and Monauban.
@@RazorMouth You should visit Albi ;)
@@funnydrop5686 I was there for a day.
France and Ireland are two evenly matched teams and the last two Six Nations matches between the two have been immensely enjoyable for the neutral. Not being neutral, I preferred this one! But that French team is quality and Dupont is unplayable at times. That tackle to deny Ireland a certain try was jaw-dropping.
Watched it in a bar in Valencia with a good mix of Irish and French fans. What a game, respect to both teams. Hopefully, Ireland can carry this form into the WC.
Yup indeed lad
So far so good hey
It's fair to say this game was memorable also because the commentator is pure class!
Quelle belle équipe d'Irlande! Un honneur! On a là les deux favoris pour la Coupe du Monde! Quel spectacle, merci! Up The Republic!
Merci Jose.
Up BOTH Republics !! IE + FR. 😁💚
France are an amazing team
Finally a French fan respecting the spirit of Rugby. Up both Republics my friend
@@ruairiodonohoe2533 i already won the World Cup, if Ireland, France, New Zealand or South Africa win. I find it a litle easy for England to get to half final. Merci for the Republics!
Yup. Been playing and watching for almost 50 years and this is the highest quality game I've ever seen. Including the great era of the 70s.
You must have missed SA v France in the WC quarter final last year. Watch it, it was THE ultimate rugby match.
I don't think so because SA wasn't perfectly playing. The french did but SA was really relying on the ref
What an incredibly display. As a proud kiwi, we know for sure we are in for a rough night against these amazing teams! Respect!!!!! Cant wait!
Watched extended highlights of Eng vs France and then this. Ireland’s defence is so unflustered and organised, which made all the difference. France searched here for the chaos, but Ireland rarely gave them it. Can’t wait to see these two teams at the WC. Awesome teams both of them. A jealous England fan, deeply worried about Saturday.
Been watching the Nations for about 50 years - that was just amazing. Two great teams and Ireland showing why they are Number 1.
You must be no spring chicken then. The six 6 nations has only been going since 2000. But I get your drift. 😅
Number 1 in the north. Also, what a boring game, no powerful runs, no good hands, no good balls, the south had their off year, back to 5th place for ireland 2023 and quarters will be your end. Nice try though, try do it again in another 100 years.
@@KiwiPepega still bitter?
@@KiwiPepegachildish comment .how old are you kid. Grow up .letting side down mate .from aussie
@@barrykavanagh_about what? The hammering you guys got In the quarters? Win all you want but keep counting your wins with 1 🤚🏽 😂
Well done France, always a pleasure and inspiratione to play , your friends from Ireland
the pace and quick thinking of hugo keenan is absolutely unbelievable, just what the team needed
Dupont save was some of the best defensive plays in rugby. It was awesome
After each game of the 6 nations, I come here and delight from the comments of these two gentlemen. Who are they? They are fantastic! Greets from France! And congrats Ireland.
What a game. And let's not forget how great commentary adds so much more, including humour.. "Trying to shove a rhino into Lycra".. 🤣🤣
Netflix could just show this game and that’s it.. that was absolutely insane!! Best game I’ve ever seen and I’m not from a rugby country or even close to one but it’s converted me to watch and some of my friends
Just a roller coaster of emotions for both set of fans! An incredible game of rugby with both teams showing why they are the best in the world at the moment. Both teams will learn a lot from the game itself, going forward!
Thankfully a quite comprehensive highlights package, one fitting to what was one of the best test matches of the last decade. Epic, barnstorming stuff boasting 4 brilliant (and 1 workmanlike) tries. A shining example of how brilliant this game can be.
I come back to watch these highlights every few months, it was that good. Currently it’s the day before Ire play South Africa in the WC group… Can only hope it delivers as much as this game did.
Update: it did 😅
Update they Goin home
Update - Ireland did their usual - left the tournament at the quarter final stage - nothing new. Most 1/4 final exits on record??? I suspect so.
why so quiet now ?
I think I have watched Hugo Keenan's try 10 times. It must be one of the greatest tries in terms of deception, speed and attacking lines. He is becoming one of my favourite players!
Yes I too have watched it many times - searching for a clue to how the player knew he was coming from nowhere.
It was a great set move BUT the prop's pass was forward
"You never give a vampire a taste of blood" is such a great line!!
I hope so much France and Ireland will win their group in WC tu give us a fantastic final ! I m French with Irish soul.
Let's hope we meet in they final not they quarters viva la france
I'm irish with no soul at all ! Eire abu, come on ye boys in green!💚🇮🇪👍🙂
@@Irish780 as in don't sh*t on your own door step!
@@saoirseclarnimhuiris7910 If we don't win it I hope France do ... them southern hempshires are really pissing me off
Hee hee , from one Irish person to another (I assume), the South Africans call themselves "the bomb squad" ah f*ck the irony- come on the North!🇮🇪🇮🇪👍
Epic game! 🇮🇪 & 🇫🇷 definitely do provide the most thrilling clashes.
One of the best games of rugby I've seen in a while
Best game ever then recently when we beat SA in their own back yard 💚🇮🇪💯🇫🇷
Sometimes in rugby you get a match that showcases how truly amazing the sport is, this was one of them. What a day for Northern Hemisphere rugby, if either of these teams show up against the Kiwis or the Saffas, we will have a great world cup!
If they show up is the question? Let’s face it France have never won a World Cup and Irelandgod forbid they have never made it past a quarter final.
@@aarongreen674 lets face it Ireland never beat New Zealand let's face it. History is there to be broken let's face it
Well well well. Look who never showed up!!!!
@@aarongreen674both France and Ireland showed up, they were beaten by better teams on the day (and as far as history goes, better teams full stop).
That's certainly one of the greatest rugby match. Even if we expected a great fight from two of the world best teams, we couldn't imagine that incredible intensity.
Wouaw ! Thank you all for that rugby demonstration.
Ireland has been more effective, especially in their kicks.
Besides, I think Mr. Barnes did a great job. Antonio's tackle on the head wasn't intentional, so yellow card. About Lowe's try, there's no clear evidence his foot touched the ground and the ball was clearly, but from very little, on field before touching the line.
Let's meet again in quarter final of the rugby world's cup !
And the forward pass to Lowe ? No clear evidence.... You gotta be kidding! Ball on the line as well. So 3 objective reasons not to award this try. And the tackle on Ethan DUMORTIER ? Completely one sided referring... 2 weeks in a row for France. IRB keeping it in the family.
@@jeanlucwillequet8292keep crying 🤣
@@fionnmaher9327 keep lying !
But surely one of the best spirited matches ever.
what a game, 8th time I've watched it. Had everything you want from a sporting encounter of 2 teams at they're best
Think it's my 5th too maby more I can't stop its best game of rugby I ever seen and I'm 56 years old
a Game to watch over and over again…Man, it brought some intense joie⁉️⁉️👊
Even if we lost, it was still a great display of rugby. Irish boys, we'll see you at the WC for a rematch
wouldve been nice to see France vs Ireland agajn
@@JinxRugby yeah but Penaud couldn't stop kolbe.
a shame
Hope we get the 2027 or 2031 one
Dupont deserves one
Reminds me of Ali v Foreman. That first half was sublime. If you want to showcase the talent of two rugby teams at their pinacle, this was the match. France were unreal in their ability to shake the defense of Ireland. Right up to 3/4 of the match, I was expecting the French to overcome the onslaught and win the day, a absolute joy to watch. The war is not won but this battle is.
The subs made the difference in the second.
Irelands subs freshened up the team, Frances subs didn't make much of a difference.
@@RazorMouth it is true that ireland dominate us, but still an average arbitration, how the try of Lowe despite being incredible could be granted
Despite this, Ireland deserves the victory
@@ManInBlackNight
And what about the tackle on James Lowe for that try?
No arms tackle.
@@RazorMouth ok then we can go back just before, the pass that Lowe receives is forward
@@RazorMouth so we potentially have 3 reasons to refuse the try, the forward, the foot in touch and the ball which touches the line.. that's a lot anyway
Great game boys. And got the double.
Great stuff 💪🇮🇪🏉. Thanks lads. 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Wow !
Not enough superlatives to describe this phenomenal showcase of a game.
Amazing first half and then an interesting 2nd half as Ireland contained France. The ref was outstanding. Can't wait till Ireland vs Scotland.
Such an incredible game of rugby. Two great teams playing at the top of their games. A joy to watch ✨💥👍😊
Love how much respect all the other teams have for Ireland. Its the only sport where we are up there with the best in the world!
You're obviously not a golf fan.
Stop the vid at 2. 45d and look at hugo keenans running back to his full back position , you never think he would be the try scorer, wonderful,
As an ABs fan, scary looking Irish and French team. I would not be surprised if the RWC champions are NH this year, solid and fast paced rugby. Sheeesh
You're one of the few SH supporters who give any NH team a shot at the WC this year
Certainly France and Ireland are in with a shout, so I wouldn’t be surprised, but you can’t ever count out SA and NZ. You wouldn’t put it past Jones to pull something awesome out of the bag fir the Aussies either 😂 think it’s great that both hemispheres have genuine powerhouses. Can’t wait for the WC.
@@paulmulryne8405 always have faith 😅 however, SH rugby is in recovery mode and have a hard time dealing with gameplay like this. Props to you lot over there. This is awesome rugby to see.
@@ocodeskamcdbsm A first RWC for either team is great for the sport. It’s nice to see ABs win but going off the results of recent matches (in the last year) the harsh reality is the heavy contenders for this RWC are the two teams here imo.
@@gc4610 it would be great and at this point in time, Scotland are also a team to keep an eye on. Having a NH team win the WC especially a team who hasn't won before would be fantastic for the sport
Peneauds try has got to be the most French try in rugby history
This first half will go down in the history of the game, breathtaking during 40 min both team were throwing punch at each other. Just watching it I was exhausted by the intensity.
The second half was very frustrating for us (french team), despite that Lowe try and the sneaky angle ignored by the ref and Atonio high tackle that could have been red, I feel that we had the momentum for 15 min from the 40 min to the 65 min and the ref wasn't blowing anything for us.
I'm probably biaised as every fan should be ahah but that late shoulder tackle on Dumortier not being reviewed on a try opportunity ?? a clear forward on a kick ignored by the ref and nothing given on the ruck phases when we put so much pressure on the irish 22m.
We were 6 pts behind and should have started the money time one point ahead at least, for me the game was decided at this moment.
Still the better team won I think we struggled so much to attacj this amazing Irish defense, no space on the wing and a stuning coverage from the backs with our kicks. Ireland also putted a kick clinic on the last 10 min to keep us on our half of the field.
I feel like we will need time to adapt to the new way of refeering the rucks that take us away a big part of our game, with so much penalty and turn over won during those phases.
Congrats to the Irish I'm willing to give you this one if we manage to win the world cup ;)
Very proud of getting the 2 best team in the world in the Northern emisphere atm.
La bise
If the highlights were this breathless, the whole game must have been outstanding!
Just looking back on highlights . What a game . One of the best in last few years
What a beautiful game Eire brothers ! France love to Eire !!!
That 2nd try was awesome, he litteraly flew through the air and still managed to press down.
How has Sexton’s burst up the left side not in the extended reel ???
Just shows how good this game was!
Best match ive seen in years and well done 🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪
I loved the way Johnny Sexton's son shouted at him "Dad" and Sexton gave him a big hug. His son then looked around as if to say. "This is my Dad!"
C'est toujours agréable d'entendre des commentateurs calmes et impartiaux, valorisant le beau jeu d'où qu'il vienne. Cela change de nos commentateurs/supporters français !
What a try saving tackle!! Legendary Heart for His Team 💪🏆
Brilliant match; brilliant commentary.
2 amazing teams both at the top of their game, fantastic tries. Will be an interesting WC
Both peaked too soon?
oof
Just love Bundee Aki @ 6:14 - passion for the team and cause
This game was as close as....a blade of grass. One of the irish try could have been disallowed because of it (but it would probably have been quite unfair for the spirit of the game). Well done Ireland, from a frenchman.
French very little time in the Irish 22 though in fairness.
@@johnmc3862 sorry I tend to have very selective memory of these things 😅
@@fredt3727 Haha same as. 😅
@@fredt3727 Hahaaa.... love your spirit. Looking forward to the WC where Ireland and France meet in the Final - hoping!!! Up the 2 Republics !! 👍💚
Ya a foot in touch for a irish line out after Lowe played the ball forward france got out of jail with a scrum a lot clearer than if Lowes foot hit the grass
That penaud try is wonderful
Proper old school France try 👍
Rugby of the highest order. Sensational!!
@Louis104 he's such a class act, great player
Ireland are just on a level no other country is. They deserve a golden cup this year. Good luck.
Amazing for such a small population, where rugby is the 4th most popular game. Mostly played by guys who went to fee-paying schools. An elite.
Ireland 🇮🇪 is the best right now. France can eat snails and croissants. Rugby is not for them.
@@chulopapi812 shut up. Just look at the stats of the 6 nations : we won it 26 times (ireland 24) , and 10 Grand slam (Ireland only 4 now), and all of that while France has nearly 40 tournaments less than Ireland...
@@chulopapi812 well France best team in the world right now, check what they did to England when Ireland struggle vs 14 of them at home. No one will ever win France for years. Get your snails meal ready and go back watching football ( where France is also the best team )
@@zenshulighting8887 you are an arrogant person
Dupont is a wizard!!
I have been moved by his performance. And so was Hansen.
He really is one of best all time players.
People talk about his height.
But that's a benefit in some respects as he has a low center of gravity.
He is one determined little fker 🤣
He kept France in it!
Massively overrated
It’s always that extra special when you beat such an amazing team❤️☘️
The strangest thing is not the controversy surrounding James Lowe's try, but that Jerome Garces is now a part of the French coaching set-up.
I agree, the James Low try should not be accorded. So many controversial ref decisions one more time.
Agree, had to do a double take when I saw him in the coaching box.
@@dww2024 Unfortunately, it is not enough to have ref decisions impartial for France :( Need one more experimented English Sax referee in the staff maybe.
I thought the same and have asked and he has been there since 2022
@@bluemaverick4268 Yeah instead it should be a penalty try for the no-wrap shoulder charge on James Lowe.
Even better than the rugby, was the delight on Johnny Sexton's kids' faces as they jumped up and down for a hug from dad.
A beautiful moment. His kids are just adorable.
7:29, the assistant referee's reaction to Wayne Barnes' decision 😂
Yes, he felt it should have been a red. However, as an Irish fan I'm happy to have been able to beat France at full strength and not just 14 Frenchmen. Otherwise we would not now be able to measure our team's true form.
@@helenaville5939 good point! It was a great performance.
Forget about Lowes try and the drama around it and the tackle, neither is the fault of the Irish team, the French team nor Wayne Barnes. This match should be remembered for, not just a grwat match for the first time in the 6N history between the top 2 ranking teams in WR, but because of Keenan's try, Penauds try and the absolute outstanding try save by DuPont. That try save was, for me, the moment of the entire 6N . I have watched it so many times, i have lost count. I'm an Irish supporter and actually stood up woth so many Irish supporters and applauded DuPont for that tackle. Young rugby players should all be shown this to show that height and the size of the attacker isnt everything and tackle technique, strength and determination can overcome anything.
On a separate note, I loved the expression by the commentator after Porter's try, "squeezing a rhino into licra", brilliant
Dupont is built like a brick.
Actually for that tackle his height may have even helped him with the lower centre of gravity.
A tall fecker may have just fell over.
What a fantastic game of rugby 🇮🇪☘️🏉
The first try was so good , Lowe catches the ball then starts fixing his hair 😆
Crikey!! The first half was dramatic enough for a whole game!!
My new favourite highlight from this match is Wayne Barnes having a laugh with Hugo Keenan about nearly getting in his way during the first try around 3.30
YOU NEVER GIVE A VAMPIRE A TASTE OF BLOOD
As a Kiwi, congratulations to Ireland, and DuPont is the French Ritchie McCaw with desire and will.
It honestly seems that teams will have to modify their goal line attack 5 meters away so as not to get held up. The Irish were so close so many times. Love both of these teams and their different styles.
Can we get this commentator more often he is so good
This & Eng v NZ in 2019 semi best games of rugby I’ve ever seen.
lol
A la première interception j'ai vu qu'on y était pas, et que tout le match allait etre comme cela, c'est le genre de match où rien ne va correctement, où tout va de travers...bien joué de la part des irlandais, c'était un beau match.
et comme Barnes étaient myope côté Bleu, cela ne nous a pas arrangé
Yes he was myopic, or perhaps just colour blind, card should have been red.
You never give a vampire a taste of blood 😂 brilliant game
Great Irlande... in my opinion, the Best. Enven if im french just Great regular game
The Penaud try was incredible, the highlights do not do justice to this superb match. 5:35
great game from both teams. the 1st half was one of the best played in the 6 (5) nations history. Ireland was not so superior than france, but played smart during key moments. I can't wait to see see them play scotland.
go france!
Ireland was much more superior than France because in they second half France were beaten...... they first half Ireland took there pressure and gave it back absolutely knowing the had them nailed in they second
Congratulation to Ireland .The best of the world.But mind In france it will be a another story .
An advise of a french friend of ireland.
FOR ME RINGROSE TRY THE BEST OF THE CHAMPIONSHIP ! HIS STRENGTH WAS IMMENSE
Incredible defence by France in the first half
The tackle by Dupont on Hansen in the 37th minute of the game was completely illegal. He tackled Hansen before Hansen had possession of the ball. While I don’t think that a penalty try should have been awarded there, it should have been a penalty.
Bon, va te faire cuire un oeuf... La mauvaise foi est présente, j'le sens mdr
Like trying to fit a Rhino into Lycra ! What a line by the commentator ! CLASS!
As an All Blacks supporter, it will be a northern hemisphere team to win the World Cup this year.
Watching the six nations hasn’t been this exciting in a very long time. Well done to both teams. Quick fast pace footy.
NZ look dangerous
Hope these teams contest the WC final later in the year
Scotland vs Ireland is gonna be amazing
What a good win for them, well done Ireland.
Irish absolutely unstoppable against an outstanding french team. What a game!. Irish absolutely unstoppable against an outstanding french team. What a game!.
you can see that a lot of the French team have experience in either judo or jujitsu by the way they are able to tackle, something other teams could do with.
They still lost..... so maybe they need to spend time getting fitter instead of learning judo.
Like trying to squeeze a Rhino into Lycra ! What a one liner from Robbo!
once a Lifetime performance spectacle 🔥👊⁉️
Thanks for posting
What a perf by Ireland. Bien battu les Français
We made our revenge
Thank you La Rochelle 😈
