Captain Baptiste Serin as well as debutants Antoine Frisch and Theo Attissogbe crossed for tries for Les Bleus.
FRANCE COACH Fabien Galthie said his side “ticked a lot of boxes” after a much-changed team eased past Argentina 28-13 in Mendoza on Saturday in Felipe Contepomi ’s first game in charge of the hosts.
Galthie handed debuts to seven players in his starting lineup including Montpellier flanker Lenni Nouchi, who was called into the side on Friday to replace the sick Judicael Cancoriet. Argentina drew level three minutes later as Santiago Carreras, who was Los Pumas’ first-choice outside-half at the World Cup, slotted a penalty.
