Rugby: defeat for the Blues against Scotland, one month before the World Cup

On Saturday, the XV of France began their preparation for the World Cup at home with a narrow defeat in Scotland (25-21), less than a month from the opening match against the All Blacks.

The Blues, however, led quietly in the first period (21-3) before collapsing, conceding three tries in the last forty minutes against the Scots reduced to fourteen in the 55th minute.
