L’Afrique du Sud s’est adjugé la médaille de bronze du tournoi olympique de rugby à sept en battant l’Australie 26-19 samedi 27 juillet au Stade de France.

Revenue du fonds d’une saison cauchemar qui l’a vu changer d’entraîneur en cours de route, l’Afrique du Sud fait mieux que Tokyo 2020 (5e) en égalisant son résultat de Rio 2016. De son côté, l’Australie réalise sa meilleure performance olympique en ayant terminé 8e à Rio 2016 et 7e à Tokyo 2020.

C’était la quatrième rencontre entre les deux équipes sur la scène olympique, l’Afrique du Sud l’emportant désormais 3-1. Elles se sont rencontrées deux fois à Rio 2016, l’Australie a remporté leur match de poule 12-5 avant que l’Afrique du Sud ne prenne sa revanche en s’imposant 22-5 en quart de finale. L’Afrique du Sud s’est à nouveau imposée à Tokyo 2020, en remportant une demi-finale serrée pour la cinquième place, 22-19.

World Rugby Guide to Rugby Sevens – French

Olympic Rugby Sevens kicks off in Paris on Wednesday. Here’s your full explanation of how it’ll work!

Après avoir ouvert le score avec Nathan Lawson, l’Australie n’a pu empêcher l’Afrique du Sud de marquer avec le capitaine Selvyn Davids juste avant le break, mais conservait un avantage à la pause (5-7).

L’arbitre français Jérémy Rozier, ovationné par les 69 000 spectateurs chauvins du Stade de France, a eu recours à la vidéo pour confirmer le carton rouge – seul de la compétition – à Nick Malouf suite à un plaquage haut à la 10e minute. En supériorité numérique et avec un essai de Zain Davids (11e) en plus, les Blitzboks ont pourtant été mis en difficulté face à des Australiens héroïques qui ont marqué coup sur coup (Corey Toole et Henry Paterson) pour égaliser juste avant que ne résonne la sirène. De quoi sonner l’alerte de l’Afrique du Sud, libérée une minute plus tard par Shaun Williams.

Match pour la 5e place

Nouvelle-Zélande 17 – 7 Irlande

La Nouvelle-Zélande a mis fin à un tournoi olympique un brin frustrant avec une 5e place (la même qu’à Rio 2016) alors que les All Blacks Sevens figuraient parmi les favoris après avoir gagné la médaille d’argent à Tokyo 2020. En revanche, l’Irlande s’en sort plutôt pas mal à la 6e place, soit quatre de mieux qu’à Tokyo 2020. Avec son doublé (comme il l’avait fait contre l’Afrique du Sud), Moses Leo devient l’un des meilleurs marqueurs d’essais en un seul tournoi des Jeux olympiques (6).

Match pour la 7e place

Argentine 19 – 0 Etats-Unis

L’Argentine a terminé à la 7e place en battant les USA 19-0 après avoir terminé à la 6e place à Rio 2016 et avec le bronze à Tokyo 2020. Le carton jaune de Perry Baker, meilleur marqueur d’essais de l’histoire des Jeux olympiques (6) en fin de première période n’a pas arrangé les choses. Los Pumas Sevens ont inscrit trois essais sans réponse par Matías Osadczuk (2) et Rodrigo Isgro. Une conclusion un peu décevante pour le vétéran Gastón Revol qui vivait là ses troisièmes Jeux olympiques et qui met fin à sa carrière monumentale.

Match pour la 9e place

Samoa 5 – 10 Kenya

Le Kenya termine à la 9e place après avoir remporté sa deuxième victoire du tournoi en venant à bout des Samoa 10-5. Un retournement complet alors que les Samoa leur avaient passé 26 points à rien en match de la poule B deux jours avant. Si les deux équipes ne se sont pas économisées sur le terrain, elles se sont retrouvées à la fin de la rencontre pour former un grand cercle et prier ensemble.

Première victoire en revanche pour l’Uruguay qui boucle sa toute première participation aux Jeux olympiques à la 11e place après une victoire contre le Japon 21-10. Le Japon est la seule équipe qui repart avec aucune victoire en cinq matchs.

Former All Blacks on whether Jordie Barrett should be a guaranteed selection

I cracked up when Wheeler and Donald disparaged the northern competitions quality, a very pertinent point in this regards. But it only really matters if NZR have improved on their policies, with a sabbatical no longer meaning what it does/did, after the likes of Ardiea Savea last year and others before him showing that allowing someone to come straight back into the team after a lack of quality rugby is just too detrimental to AB performances. AB’s on sabbatical should need to do more than the incumbents (than they would have) back at home in Super Rugby, and currently Jordie is not doing that.


I would also bring him straight back into the team and give him the best possible opportunity as the 23 though. With Leinsters management of him and star studded team it sounds like he’s pretty fresh. His form, and fitness, over the next 6 or so weeks could change that either way. On previous protocol however, he is straight back in as the starting 12 against France.


Form and fitness at home will also play a factor, as will Razor’s past stubbornness to play anyone else in midfield. Of that group there is only ALB that could be considered as the other option to start in the jersey, but at least one to have started the season in good form, though that it had been at center and more recently has been injured, two other performers have shown much more of a case for having that jersey. And Havili has still not shown any improvement from past good seasons to suggest he can do more than ALB, it would take an extraordinary return to his first couple of breakout seasons to change that picture.


AJ Lam and Timico Tavatavanawai have been the hot 2nd five options so far this season and you can’t really see their contributions changing as seasoned pros by now, through the 2nd half of Super Rugby. Both are of course uncapped (I believe) All Blacks, so while not without precedent of Lam being chosen to start the season there, certainly Big Jim as a first season midfielder is a very long shot to be given the jersey. Also in that category would be any other other ABXV players and hopefuls from last year, Higgins now has 5-7 games to show his case, will Poihipi, McLeod, or even the form Umaga-Jensen brothers (now that others are fit and firing) get that same chance? Higgins looked like the layoff wasn’t going to stop him showing his best, he just has too much class on his pass for that to happen, I have him in a four horse race at home to see if someone deserves to make Jordie earn his jersey back.

Crusaders prepare for 'dangerous in all elements' Chiefs game-breaker

After months of meticulous research, I cautiously invested $188,000 into a binary options platform that promised steady returns. At the time, I lived in California, where I’d worked tirelessly to build my life and savings. I monitored my account for weeks, reassured by the platform’s professional interface and seemingly legitimate operations. Encouraged by initial gains, I grew optimistic until the day I attempted my first withdrawal. The transaction stalled, and panic surged as I realized my funds were trapped. I immediately contacted customer support via every channel listed: emails went unanswered, calls rang endlessly, and live chat options mysteriously vanished. Days turned into weeks, my anxiety deepening with each ignored plea. Then, an unsettling email arrived: to “unlock” withdrawals, I was told to deposit an additional $50,000. The demand felt predatory, a glaring red flag. Refusing to comply, I confronted the grim truth—I’d been ensnared in an elaborate scam. The aftermath was crushing. Nights were sleepless, my mind racing with regret and anger. I replayed every decision, tormented by the loss of hard-earned savings meant to secure my family’s future. Friends urged me to accept the loss, but resignation felt like surrender.Months later, while scouring online forums for solutions, I stumbled upon a thread praising Tech Cyber Force Recovery. Skeptical yet desperate, I devoured countless testimonials stories mirroring my own, with endings I scarcely dared to believe. With trembling resolve, I reached out. Their team responded within hours, radiating empathy. They requested transaction records, communication logs, and platform details, guiding me through each step. Though doubts lingered, their transparency starkly contrasted with the shadowy operators who’d stolen my trust. Then, the impossible happened: 32 hours later, I received confirmation that my entire $188,000 had been recovered. Tears of relief blurred my screen as I verified the funds in my account. Tech Cyber Force Recovery hadn’t just restored my savings, they’d restored my faith in justice. This ordeal taught me harsh lessons about vigilance in the digital age. Yet it also revealed the power of resilience and the critical importance of seeking help. To anyone trapped in the nightmare of financial fraud, I urge you: act swiftly, document everything, and trust in experts like Tech Cyber Force Recovery. They are beacons of hope in an increasingly complex world, turning despair into redemption when it matters most.visit they teamsWhatsApp +.1.5.6.1.7.2.6.3.6.9.7

Conor Murray: French giants weigh up shock move for Ireland star

Email: prowizardgilbertrecovery(@)  engineer.comWhatsApp: +1 (920) 408‑1234Telegram: https://t.me/Pro_Wizard_Gilbert_RecoveryI never imagined I’d become a victim of a scam—especially in the fast-moving world of cryptocurrency. When I was offered a chance to appear on a popular crypto podcast, I was excited. It seemed like a golden opportunity to gain exposure, connect with industry professionals, and build credibility within the crypto community. The podcast appeared legitimate, complete with a sleek website, professional branding, glowing testimonials, and an active social media presence.After a few exchanges with the supposed host, I was asked to pay $9,500 to secure my spot on the show. Trusting the apparent professionalism of the platform, I went ahead with the payment. I envisioned the new doors this would open—partnerships, recognition, and new opportunities. But everything changed once the payment was made.Suddenly, all communication stopped. My emails and messages went unanswered. The podcast’s website vanished, and so did their social media presence. That’s when reality hit—I had been scammed.I was devastated. Angry, embarrassed, and desperate to find a solution, I began searching for help. That’s when I discovered PRO WIZARD GILBERT RECOVERY. At first, I was skeptical, but with nothing left to lose, I decided to reach out.To my surprise, their team responded quickly and took my case seriously. Using advanced investigative tools and digital tracking techniques, they began tracing the scammer’s digital footprint. I watched as they worked tirelessly, putting the pieces together.Amazingly, PRO WIZARD GILBERT RECOVERY was able to recover 95% of my lost funds. The relief I felt was indescribable. Not only did I get back most of what I lost, but I also walked away with a hard-earned lesson about the importance of due diligence and caution in the digital world.While I wish I had never fallen into the trap, I’m incredibly thankful for the support and professionalism of PRO WIZARD GILBERT RECOVERY. They didn’t just recover my money—they helped restore my peace of mind. I’m sharing my story in hopes that it helps others avoid the same mistake and encourages them to stay vigilant in the ever-evolving world of cryptocurrency.
