This home meeting at Vidalie d'Arpajon-sur-Cère in the presence of a large audience who raised their voices and raised their voices until the last minute of the match saw the locals lose by 3 points in the term of a game upset by a violent wind.
In this game, it was the Lormontais who had the last word. It is true that there was cause for concern because after 30 minutes of play the RCAV, dominated, was trailing 19 to 0 following two tries scored and 4 long-distance penalties scored by the opposing scorer thanks to the complicity of the wind. Half-time was whistled with a score of 22 to 5 following a strong attempt by the Arpajonnais pack flattened by Bardet in the 40th minute.
Big delay at the “lemons”
The second act would show a completely different face of the locals who this time with the support of the wind camped in the opposing camp. This phase of domination gave them ammunition which they materialized with two tries and 3 penalties which allowed them to come back, at one point to within 7 points, of their opponent while there was half an hour to play.
But the match tipped in the 58th minute on a candle in the air recovered by a Lormont player who served his winger to offer him a hat-trick bringing the score to 29 – 21 in favor of the visitors. The end of the game ended with a try from Gosset in the 79th minute which allowed RCAV to earn a defensive bonus point which could well count at the end of the season.
Ranking
After 9 days, Arpajon is last (12th) in group 7 of Fédérale with 13 points, 2 points from the first non-relegation place.
Next match: Sunday December 8, 2024 on the Causse Vézère lawn (7th in the ranking).
