Good news for the XV of France.
The day after a new case of Covid-19 detected within the group, after two days of lull, all the tests carried out on Thursday were negative, said the French Rugby Federation on Friday morning.
"From this morning, the players return to their homes by individual transport," said the FFR.
Thursday, the organizing committee of the VI Nations Tournament announced the postponement of the match between France and Scotland, scheduled for Sunday and counting for the 3rd day.
Sixteen members of the France group have tested positive for Covid since the start of last week: twelve players and four members of the management, including coach Fabien Galthié.
The other matches of the Tournament this weekend, Italy-Ireland and Wales-England, are maintained.
