France reignited their Six Nations title hopes with a commanding 73-24 win over Italy at Rome’s Stadio Olimpico, marking their highest-ever score in the tournament.
In a ruthless display of attacking rugby, the visitors ran in 11 tries, with Antoine Dupont—named man of the match—and Leo Barre both crossing the line twice.
The emphatic victory puts France firmly back in contention ahead of a crucial showdown against defending champions Ireland on 8 March, a match that could prove decisive in the championship race.
