Wales Under 19's Defeated
2 April 2004, 8:17 pm
By WRU
Wales under-19's took a 27-3 battering from their French counterparts in the second round of matches for the IRB Under-19 World Championship in South Africa.

France, who had already thrashed Scotland by 61-0, recorded their second win over Wales this year, having won 25-14 at Bridgend on March 5.

Though outside half Aled Thomas (Carmarthen Quins) opened the scoring with a penalty goal, France took the lead through a try by their captain, scrum half Fabien Cibray.

The talented French side ran in another three tries to gain a bonus point and will now meet South Africa in the next round of games, while Wales will be up against an Argentinian side who lost 29-6 to South Africa before defeating Scotland by 24-15 yesterday.
