The full-back was at his assured best in the epic Rugby World Cup pool clash with South Africa
Hugo Keenan's girlfriend could see just by looking at the full-back how nervous he was about Ireland's Stade de France return.
Still, as James Lowe mentioned, it was the chance for the world's number one ranked team to put down a marker. Apart from what the five point victory does in terms of putting Ireland in pole position to make the quarter-finals, it also takes care of that Stade de France hoodoo element for Keenan and the other World Cup debutants.
"The walkaround after the game was incredibly special, I saw some familiar faces which makes it extra cool." The Leinster star was annoyed that he didn't reach the try line in the first half, after racing onto a break by Garry Ringrose.The players are enjoying a few days off - he spent Sunday night in Paris before returning to the squad's 'home' city base in Tours.
