Highlights
The 22–8 victory on 26 June was the biggest win by France over New Zealand up to then. In the second test, on 3 July, New Zealand led 20–16 with three minutes of the match remaining. As they tried to run down the clock, Philippe Saint-André started a move in his own 22 which, 65 seconds later, ended with Jean-Luc Sadourny crossing the French line to score what became known as Шаблон:Lang (the try from the end of the world), giving them a 23–20 victory.[1] It was the first time a side from a northern hemisphere nation had won a test series against the All Blacks.[2]
