L‘Arin Luzien and the rest of the contingent compete in the penultimate day of the championship without further knowing the exact number of effective descents in fifteen days. Indeed, at the end of this 25th day, the formations of the two pools know only two things: the first of each pool qualifies for an accession dam towards the N3 and the last four of the two pools descend in R2.
Arin in maintenance mode
The Luziens receive Saint-Paul-lès-Dax, already assured of his maintenance. Thomas Tapia’s players must keep their destiny in hand before the last day and for that, only one goal, the three points and nothing else. A success would assure them mathematically to avoid one of the last four places. We would have to wait for the last day to find out if it is also necessary to avoid tenth place. Everything in its time.
Rowing in accession mode
In R2, things appear easier to access the highest regional level. The first of the six hens accesses in R1. In Pool F, the Bayonnais rowing reserve has two points ahead and the favorable particular Goal-Everage (8-1 and 4-0) on the Brède, the only direct competitor. The players of Quentin Tarbes receive the promoted Martignas who has the head of the condemned to return to R3 with his place of red lantern. The Bayonnais remain on four victories in a row and fifteen goals scored. If the logic is respected …
In R3, Tarnos and his eight victories and a draw during the return phase still resist Mauléon, seven victories, a draw and a defeat. The AST receives Belin to take the three points and mathematically ensure its return to R2. Mauléon, for his part, must win in the face of the Arin Luzien reserve and hope for a misstep of the Landes to believe it again.
Biarritz, Ustaritz et L’arin B in Sursis
In R2, the JAB, by winning at Arlac B, did the job by taking up the reins of its destiny but still remains relegated. The players of Hervé Loubat must win on Saturday against Brède who plays the accession with Bayonne B to offer a maintenance final in three weeks in Audenge.
In R3, to keep his destiny in hand, Ustaritz must win against the neighbors of Saint-Pierre-d’Irube, assured of maintaining themselves. Same objective for Arin Luzien B, in danger in Mauléon. The Beltzak must not lose in pain under penalty of falling back into the relegation area.
The “without a pressure”
In R2, Saint-Pierre-d’Irube welcomes Saint-Bruno and the Genêts reserve welcomes Arlac B, both insured of their maintenance. The Crusaders of Bayonne, beaten in Bazas in a late match on Thursday (2-0), receive Lescar to keep their second place. In R3, Hasparren welcomes Cadaujac to finish well in Xapitalia, the reserve of Saint-Pierre-d’Irube serene in Ustaritz. These two teams will leave one more season in the league and will be joined by Boucau who returns to the league two years after leaving it.
