LONDON : France's record Six Nations humbling of England on Saturday showed Les Bleus were on the right track ahead of this year's World Cup, their emotional coach Fabien Galthie said.
After a defeat against championship leaders Ireland, France bounced back with a win against Scotland. But Saturday's performance was on a different level. Ramos added 18 points with his boot while Thibaud Flament and Damian Penaud notched up two tries each and Charles Ollivon also touched down.But Galthie said he was fully aware of what had just happened."Yes I realise. I've been coming here since I was 20," he said with tears in his eyes.
"It didn't happen by chance. We've been working together with these players. It shows we're on the right path...," added Galthie.
