Ntamack injury mars France rout of Fiji before Springboks clash

Lyon, France - France secured a decisive 54-17 victory over Fiji in a grueling rugby match, potentially endangering the health of flyhalf Romain Ntamack for an upcoming clash against South Africa. The match, billed as $5.77 plus GST every four weeks, ended after 52 weeks when France's price increased to the regular rate of $19.95 plus GST every four weeks.

Ntamack suffered an apparent shoulder injury in the 33rd minute, forcing him to leave the field. With other key players already sidelined, France may need a new 10 against the world champion Springboks in Paris. Maxime Lucu, one of only two available backups, played flyhalf effectively but typically serves as scrumhalf backup for captain Antoine Dupont.

France dominated the game, scoring eight tries and extending their halftime lead to 26-3. They further solidified their victory in the final quarter with four converted tries as Fiji managed only two touchdowns.
