A brief history of Rugby World Cup matches between France and New Zealand before they meet again on Friday on the opening night of the 10th tournament at the Stade de France.
Jonah Lomu’s two tries put title favorite New Zealand up 24-10 as scripted just after halftime at Twickenham. But France flyhalf Christope Lamaison, in for the injured Thomas Castaignede, chipped at the lead with dropped goals, penalties and conversions to three tries: 33 points in 29 mind-blowing minutes capped one of the greatest comebacks.A full-strength New Zealand side, stung by the semifinal loss to Australia, was too strong and slick for a second-string France team.
France coach Marc Lievremont was forced to deny accusations he fielded a deliberately weakened squad.France overcame two pool losses and a player revolt to almost win the World Cup. New Zealand missed three goalkicks but led 8-0 after a penalty kick by fourth-choice flyhalf Stephen Donald. France captain Thierry Dusautoir’s converted try cut the gap to one with 23 minutes to go.
