Bleus triumph over Fiji in final, secure place in Madrid showdown

Antoine Dupont and the French rugby sevens team have secured a historic victory in Los Angeles, claiming their first World Rugby Sevens Series title in 19 years. The Bleus displayed resilience and determination throughout the tournament, culminating in a thrilling triumph over defending champions Fiji in the final.

Dupont, who has been in scintillating form this season for both club and country, played a pivotal role in France's success. The scrum-half scored a crucial try in the corner to break the deadlock against Fiji, setting the stage for a dramatic finish. The Bleus held on for a nail-biting victory, securing their place in the final of the Madrid Sevens next month.

This victory is a significant milestone for French rugby sevens and a testament to the team's growing potential. With the Paris 2024 Olympic Games on the horizon, France will be among the favorites to challenge for the gold medal with Dupont leading the charge.
