Making Rugby History - Ange Capuozzo

Ange Capuozzo has completely galvanised Italian rugby. Since the famous against Wales in the last minute, he has been the new face of the resurrection of the Italian rugby team. He has recently signed a contract with the Stade Toulousain and scored two tries in their historic win over Australia.

un PRODIGE!!!!!! je suis heureux pour l'Italie Bravo!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@maxabbrescia]

The speed, the size, the joy while playing and the courage of this young guy are astonishing. He's pretty smart as well: he could easily score that try vs Wales but at the corner so, after 79' he's still alert, pass the ball (and the try) to a better placed teammate who scored under the post. Brilliant.

And he is already playing in the best club in Europe, he is gonna be something special to watch.

And for your information, Ange was born and raised in France, tailored by the french rugby system, he choose Italy because of his grandparents from his father’s side, the ones from his mother’s side being from France and Madagascar.

Being small, light, quick, and manoeuvrable can be a real advantage on a rugby field especially when lots of players are getting bigger and heavier. Which can be good but makes it harder for them to change direction quickly on defense.
