The French Rugby Federation has announced that the friendly match of rugby between France and Japan will be disputed at the U Arena in Nanterre on November 25th.

 

The meeting between the Blues and the Japanese rugby team, the Brave Blossoms , was initially scheduled for September 19 in Lille, but the French Rugby Federation was forced to give up the Pierre-Mauroy stadium, because of the final of the Davis Cup Tennis. The match was postponed to November 25, in Nanterre.
