Many Creuse supporters would have signed for such a big victory (37-17) for RC Guéret at home against neighboring Ussel, Sunday on the occasion of the 5th day of Fédérale 3.
Sunday October 20, RC Guéret Creuse largely dominated its neighbor Ussel, on its lawn at the Cher-du-Prat stadium (37-17), for the 5th day of Fédérale 3.
3-0, a penalty from Fraysse launches this Limousin derby (3rd). It will be all in the first period for the Usselois who are disoriented, overwhelmed, suffocated by the power and impact of Guérétos. The Green and Black monopolize the leather and camp in the opposing 22.
A penalty was well negotiated by Adenis’ partners who struck and fixed the opposing defense several times. Speed and precision, confiscation of the ball and Ric flattens it into a corner. 7 to 3 after Delfour’s transformation (7th).
The Creuse waves continue, the pressure is without downtime. A clearance attempt, from 22 m, is blocked by Delfour. Mairau, on his line, does not secure his pass and Benge, positioned for the first time at the opening, points into the goal. It’s 14-3 after the conversion and we’re only in the 11th minute.
The domination of the Guérétois is unchallenged, there is variety in the game of the locals who will again find the fault in the 32nd. New fixation points force the Ussellois to concentrate near the ball but a small diagonal from L. Fontaine finds Fanton on the wing: another try for a 19-3 in the 32nd minute.
The icing on the cake, just before the break, Benge scored a 55-meter penalty.
Guéret’s best match
For those who thought that Ussel no longer knew how to play Rugby, the resumption would put their ideas back in place. The Corréziens returned to the pitch with conquering intentions and took advantage of a surplus to go for the test through Rodriguez. Two more points for Fraysse and the score changes to 22-10 in the 49th minute.
Guéret with a try from Delfour takes off again (29-10, 61st). The Guérétois scorer passes a penalty, just to make it clear that victory will not escape his teammates (32-10, 64th). And it’s not over since after new work from his forwards, Benge goes for his double (37-10, 69th) before a burst of pride from the Usselois to explain Castiglione’s try, transformed by Fraysse to the 75th.
Guéret had his best match at the start of the season, this performance falls well before a schedule which promises to be daunting and clashes in Issoudun, against Argentat and Montluçon, then at Isle.
