To hope to qualify, the Lézignanais have no room for error against Villeneuve (4 p.m.). A success would allow them to maintain hope while a defeat would plunge them into depression.
After their defeat in Provence (22-18 in Avignon), everything has to be done again for the Lézignanais. This failure leaves regrets as Arnaud Hack the hooker analyzes: “We didn't miss much, but we fell back into our mistakes by making mistakes which kept Avignon in the match. The Vauclusiens didn't give up and we came up against their good defense without being in control. able to find solutions”.
This defeat put the green and white in danger for qualification: “We no longer have a joker and each match that follows will be decisive. But the season is far from over. Until the last match, I am convinced that the group will give 100% to wet the jersey and try to obtain the qualification”. Analyzes carried out, the Lézignan residents went back to work: “I think we need to focus on attack”adds Arnaud Hack, “and find more automatism so as not to play with the pressure to do badly. We need to have fun together, and move in the same direction”.
Spirit of revolt
If for a few years Villeneuve played at the bottom of the table, the hard work of this club ended up paying off. The Lot-et-Garonnais have a team of another dimension this season: “They are dangerous and made some nice shots. They showed themselves capable of catching big arms”. A good run which places them in 7th place just ahead of the Lézignanais. Even if the championship is only halfway over, this duel could be decisive for qualification.
Arnaud Kack is aware: “We must be wary of them and we must at all costs catch up and finish this last match of the first leg with a victory. We must revolt and finish the year well in front of our public”. To make the Villeneuvois bend, the Corbières hooker thinks he has a few solutions: “The basics will be to run hard and tackle hard. This can allow our experienced hinge to adapt and help us progress. We will have to have unfailing solidarity to revolt and reap this victory”.
