PARIS (Reuters) - Winger Damian Penaud has pulled out of France’s squad for Saturday’s test against Argentina in Lille due to injury, the French Rugby Federation said on Monday.

Penaud, who was picked in the starting line-up ahead of Gael Fickou to face South Africa in Paris on Saturday, hurt his ankle in the first half of the 29-26 defeat by the Springboks but completed the match.
