Un Stade de France packed to the brim, fans ready to roar and sing to back their team, and 30 renowned players on the field: this Saturday 21 November 2026, the French XV take on the Argentina Pumas in a high-stakes rugby showdown. For 80 minutes, each side will chase as many tries as possible to secure the victory and rack up as many points as they can.
