The Azzurri have kicked off their Pool A campaign with a seven-try win against Namibia in Saint-Étienne: Lorenzo Cannone, Paolo Garbisi, Dino Lamb, Ange Capuozzo, Hame Faiva – and Paolo Odugwu right at the end – scored the tries. Tommaso Allan was eight from eight off the tee, and kicked beautifully. Job done.
Torsten van Jaarsveld was sent to the sin bin for Namibia after just 10 minutes.
