R.I.P, Domi. This match will always be your. In this match the French number 12 was Emile Ntamack aka Milou :) . The father of Romain Ntmack who also defeated ABs last night. And Fabien Galthié the current coach of the XV of France. What a match ! Great memories, as a French.
Sadly Christophe Dominici legendary french winger (number 11 on this game) killed himself in November last year. French legend gone too soon very traumatic event in french rugby. RIP
un souvenir toujours présent, le "petit" Dominici devenu un géant, il nous manquera toujours de même que Lomu, deux joueurs exceptionnels. un grand match qui restera pour tres tres longtemps dans nos mérmoires !
ce match est la représantation visuelle du "french flair". En un instant, l'équipe s'est mis à jouer comme un seul homme, à l'unisson. Et mème Jona Lomu le dira lors d'une interview: dit " on a pas vraiment comprit ce qui ce passait, mais les français ce sont emflamés !!". Un des plus beaux match que j'ai eu le privilège de voir.
Lamaison, man of the match, put all style of possible points, he permitted France to stay in the match when ABs were seeming to thrash France at 10-24... drop, drop, penalties X2, magic passesX2 which lead to 2 magnificent tries. One of the best flyhalf in french rugby History. without a doubt... He won the european cup with Brive in club few years before that match :)
I think it is the first and only time a team scored 33 unanswered points again the ABs. From 10-24 to 43-24 in the 2nd half. I vividly remember this game! Thanks for your reaction, you seem to genuinly enjoy the game!
I watched all of the world cup games on TV. The All Blacks were unpassable. It was unimaginable that they could be beaten. In this game it was clear to see that the French eventually solved the problem by kicking over the top or through the defence and that was it. We were all totally in shock. How could anybody beat the Jona All Blacks ... the French of course.
They played as one like the Blacks are known for. But we got lucky as well. I'd like to thank all the players who played that day. Sure I'm happy we won, but it's so magical against an All Black team that GOOD 🙏🏽
It's nice seeing how much you are getting into rugby, far and away the best American reactor to rugby. One day you should crowdfund and come watch a live game in South Africa, I'm sure folks will host you gladly.
France is the most interesting nation to follow during the World Cups because absolutely anything can happen with it and it has always been the only nation capable of producing huge surprises when it seemed impossible ...
France faced a hard period in rugby between 2011 (and their final lost by 1 point against the All Blacks in New Zealand), and 2019 where the weren't competitives and lost a lot of games. But since 2019 they are back on track with a golden generation (Dupont being the best example), and are easily in the top 5 best nations of rugby at the moment. The next world cup will be played in France in 2023
You should watch the try from the end of the world France vs All Blacks. Another one that tore out New Zealand hearts, and one of the greatest game winning tries you'll ever see.
I was at twickenham for this game and predicted the French win, France had beaten AB 3 out o last 5 games. And they played simple rugby, the Grubba, when opposition are that forward on defence. And AB never fell back, believed Umaga and Lomo would save the day, their weakness was exposed.
notice that the 8 AB at 12:40 do a block (illegal) on the French 10 and that's a penalty, meaning no try, if the referee was doing his job the same way with the AB than with all the other teams... that's something that happen too often and often in favor of the AB (who don't even need that, they're strong enough) another example was McCaw cheating the whole match in the final 2011 and never getting called for it by the referee (it was played in NZ so...) (btw, France won the previous game (vs Wales) with a try including an offside pass that wasn't called by the ref, so... not blindly supporting the Blues...) rules n°1: never let Joubert referee for an important match of France...
When I was a kid my heroe was (and still is) Christophe LaMaison (nicknamed) Titou. That day Titou Made a full house : scored a try, penalty drop goal and penalty kick. He played the match of his life.
how to get french comment on your YT video france- all black 1999 !!! je suis la ! j'étais la ! i'm here i was there ! when you said " top of the world " that was exactly that ! there was no better by far( like very far very very far ) than the all black ! especially this team ! yet they did it!! they freakin did it! this is why for the french this game is magical i was 13 now 35 still one of the best day of my life and yes french gave everything hey had that day look at the end, 1 second before the final whistle, 2 french on the ground, with one front all black poking them just to check if they are still alive lol
Je suis jaloux ! Moi, j'ai vu le match sur une petite télé à la maternité (ma femme avait accouché la veille) et impossible de hurler ma joie, vu que mon fils aîné dormait à côté de moi... Une torture quoi ! LOL Un match exceptionnel, sans doute le plus beau match de coupe du monde (je le compare en intensité au match de foot France-Allemagne, Mondial 1982).
France are the best team to watch, they focus on speed, ultra slick passing in the backs and basically want to run at the opposition, they and the All Blacks play the best Rugby to watch
I remember getting up early as a kid to watch this match it broke many kiwi hearts that year and they did it again in 2007 you can never count out the French you don’t know what team will show up.. But NZ learned and then went on to win 2 world cups back to back
They spoiled the All Blacks party again in 2007, this time in a QF. France is a bogey team for the All Blacks. Even in the 2011 final, the All Blacks scraped it by one point...and some in France have said a little controversially too. France is the one game the All Blacks don't look forward too.
"5 dudes and still went through them...that's called heart" nope, it's called bloody terrible tackling and defence! No disrespect to Lomu he was a genuine great of the game but half of his success came from people being too scared to deal with him.
RIP to Mr Lomuh and our loved Dominici, I had the chance to meet him and damn he was sweet and funky, always laughing, sad sad sad losses of great players and great persons 😔 This will always stay as the best rugby game I had the chance to see. Sure there are others but being french watching it a the day of the mariage of my cousin was mystical. The vibes were insane. Big out to our players and the Blacks, one team had to win but both made it FABULOUS 🙏🏽💯👌🏽
A thought for French Christophe Dominici N°11 who committed suicide 2 years ago, i hope he's proud from where he is of our team and gave us the winning spirit to hold the cup
You actually spot on with the similarities between the ABs and France. It’s because the French colonised Polynesia… it’s called French Polynesia and that place feeds both New Zealand and France.
You should watch Waikato vs Tasman in the championship final for NZ. It’s the third tier in NZ rugby but will give you an idea of the quality in the roots of NZ
At the time France was almost nothing. No one expected France to win against the blacks in semi final ! With that team anything can happened. The french flair can make a game so unpredictable.
@@reynaldparisel3852 true. Last play of the match. Very deserved. In fact, the Blanco's try starts woth a Campese mistake. Anyway, is my favourite player.
Some days France can show up and beat the best at their best -love seeing them play well. Generally a good side but can really swing between sublime and "gutter trash"!
Lomu was brilliant. Only team he didn't score against? South Africa. 1995 First Joost stopped him, then the rest followed. RIP to both those legends. ua-cam.com/video/NSFSBwITH_s/v-deo.html
People were more normal size back then...apart from a certain All Black number 11.When they went ahead 24..10 it was game over,no way the French can come back,and then history happened.
This was similar to 2019 England beat the all blacks to then lose to a well prepared SA Here France we’re ready for the all blacks just to lose to Australia afterwards, you really do feel bad for a team that gives it their all just to fail at the last hurdle
"Dominici c'est un génie"😂👍✌️Dédicace à Thierry Gilardy.... Gilardy, Dominici, et Lomu, sont partis😢.....C'était hier, et en fait ça fait 24 ans😢Ça passe trop vite.....
Lomu and Dominici are now deceased. Hard to imagine. Peace to their souls
thats was a tragedy for both
RIP Dominici and Lomu, both amazing player (France & NZ) in one amazing match. I hope those 2 guys are still playing together in heaven
I sure hope so, amazing humans!
I bet my grandma is cooking some old Italian recipes for them 🙏🏽

Monsieur Dominici, grand monsieur, qu'il repose en paix.
c'est ce match qui ma fait rentrer dans le monde du rugby pour de bien merveilleuses années !
I will never forget this game and Lomu and Dominici. Hope they are somewhere talking about rugby and sharing a drink! Regards from France!
Sadly Christophe Dominici legendary french winger (number 11 on this game) killed himself in November last year. French legend gone too soon very traumatic event in french rugby. RIP

Isn’t that the forward pass.. that doesn’t count 😂😂😂😂

france- all black 1999 !!!
je suis la !
j'étais la !

this is why for the french this game is magical
i was 13 now 35
still one of the best day of my life
and yes french gave everything hey had that day
look at the end, 1 second before the final whistle, 2 french on the ground, with one front all black poking them just to check if they are still alive lol

one of the greatest WC match...RIP Lomu and Dominici
Quel match et quels souvenirs, au moins j’ aurai vu ça dans ma vie !
2 grands joueurs sont morts 😪
Lomu et Christophe Dominici 😢
C'était une superbe Demi finale.
Ils nous manque ces grands joueurs ❤
RIP ❤️

"Little" ? When referee give you the win because you play at home it is not "little"

06:55 you made me laugh out loud and you were spot on about that. I mean, one of his nicknames was The Bus! I don't get in front of a speeding bus.
A thought for French Christophe Dominici N°11 who committed suicide 2 years ago, i hope he's proud from where he is of our team and gave us the winning spirit to hold the cup
France has been in a few World Cup finals 87’ 99’ and 11’ they sure are top tier
1999 world cup was one for the record books. Jannie de Beer from the Springboks kicking 5 dropgoals vs England.
Rip Christophe Dominici, tu étais un vrai.
I was in morning for a week after this game, felt so num like someone had died.
You actually spot on with the similarities between the ABs and France. It’s because the French colonised Polynesia… it’s called French Polynesia and that place feeds both New Zealand and France.
"the similarities between the ABs and France. It’s because the French colonised Polynesia…" ????? NO sorry... Aucun rapport ! (i'm french)
Wrong New Zealand is a Polynesian country 😂😂😂 our Polynesian population is like 800,000, Māoris are Polynesian…
Keep an eye out For England vs South Africa that’s going to be a banger of a game.
You should watch Waikato vs Tasman in the championship final for NZ. It’s the third tier in NZ rugby but will give you an idea of the quality in the roots of NZ
At the time France was almost nothing. No one expected France to win against the blacks in semi final ! With that team anything can happened. The french flair can make a game so unpredictable.
Loved this game.
fench flair my friend ! 😁
`@2:41 bro they definitely put in work they knocked us out of the 99 World Cup I was a young 20 year old crushed in the early hours of the morning lol
Check out the Tasman vs Waikato final game, both regions in NZ but it’s a good game
I was 31 y/o, I was jumping in my home, and have drink to much for one of the greatest games of all time
Jonah and Domi we will always miss you.
You should react to Christian Cullen highlights, specifically the video titled ‘the paekakariki express’, you’ll be treating yourself
One the best. Take a look about the australian David Campese.
The Campese's australian team was beaten by Serge Blanco's French team in 1987 (first RWC). But, YES, great champion !
@@reynaldparisel3852 true. Last play of the match. Very deserved. In fact, the Blanco's try starts woth a Campese mistake. Anyway, is my favourite player.
The nickname of Bernat-Salles was "fire legs" !
Some days France can show up and beat the best at their best -love seeing them play well. Generally a good side but can really swing between sublime and "gutter trash"!
Lomu was brilliant. Only team he didn't score against? South Africa. 1995 First Joost stopped him, then the rest followed. RIP to both those legends. ua-cam.com/video/NSFSBwITH_s/v-deo.html

Here France we’re ready for the all blacks just to lose to Australia afterwards, you really do feel bad for a team that gives it their all just to fail at the last hurdle
the french number 12 in this game son was the number 10 against the all blacks this year
had chicken 's skin merci !
You should definitely do a reaction to the 1999 Eng vs. SA World Cup quarter final. It was crazy.
See you in september 2023 to revenge 2011 NZ robbery. Never forget.
that wasn't the wing, thats the fullback
between SA and the all blacks, france have been in more finals but never won
Christophe Dominici (N°11) was so fast on the field rest in peace ua-cam.com/video/FR6fujIQPj4/v-deo.html
A le blue
lool commentator at the end..."France 43 New Zealand 12..." wtf ? he high? its 43-31 lmao
I think that commentator kicked himself in the nuts after he saw the end result haha
This is the World Cup that Australia won...
Yeah 😭
Lomu never scored against the bokke
There’s a fundamental problem here which is you obscuring half the screen. I for one would rather see the game than you, whoever you might be.
This a reaction channel bro. Watch the video by itself lol, it’s literally on UA-cam bro thanks for the view haha
@@RareSoulTV not your bro fella, you appear to be something of an arsehole frankly
