France winger Louis Bielle-Biarrey stunned commentators with a sensational solo score in the autumn internationals.
The Bordeaux-Begles flyer played for Les Bleus in their 48-33 win over Australia at Stade de France on Saturday evening and was instrumental in their victory. The try has been reposted across social media from various accounts in footage that exemplifies the 22-year-old’s mind-blowing speed and impressive skillset.
The scores were locked in at 12-12, with fellow winger Damian Penaud finding Bielle-Biarrey on the left flank to create something.
Being one of the fastest players on the planet, he backed himself on the outside before executing a perfect chip-and-chase to evade a defender.
After collecting the kick, he stepped the last man expertly before racing away from Max Jorgensen to complete a remarkable solo score.
The commentator for the Australian broadcast of the game was blown away by the try – “Oh, he’s electric!” Check out the try below.

“What a try, most dangerous player in world rugby,” wrote one viewer.
“Louis Bielle-Biarrey is truly awesome.. c’est magnifique,” wrote another.
It was a superb line break from Kalvin Gourgues through the centre of the field that set up Bielle-Biarrey’s second try of the match against the Wallabies – again using his stunning gas to beat defenders to the try line.
As well as bagging two tries, Bielle-Biarrey was able to tee up Nicolas Depoortere (who also scored two tries) in superb fashion. Check out that score below.

As well as Depoortere and Bielle-Biarrey, it was a special day for full-back Thomas Ramos, too, with the 30-year-old kicker passing 100 Test points this year as France finished their Quilter Nations Series on a high.
Summarising the tour, head coach Fabien Galthie spoke about needing more time together as a squad. “Three matches against very strong opponents, teams with very different profiles,” he told the press.
“We finished with a victory, with some very positive aspects and some less positive ones. But there’s substance to it. In the end, there are two wins, plus a first match against South Africa at home where we were up to the task for 72 minutes.
“But we need a little more time and experience playing together… That’s just how it is. So there were good points and not-so-good points.
