Monaco Rugby Sevens lose final of first tournament of the season to Pau

The Monegasque team, who were unstoppable in defence all day on Saturday, collapsed in the second half, conceding five tries in the end (29-5).

While they had not conceded a single point during the first three games of the day, the Monegasques were struck by lightning in the second half of the final of the first qualifying tournament for the final of the French In Extenso Supersevens championship, this Saturday evening in Perpignan.

MR7s had opened the scoring before keeping it level (5-5) at half-time despite a temporary expulsion.
