On a very full of water, the game was difficult for the two camps which still made a lot of errors and did not obtain many test opportunities. The Cassipontines marked the first with a penalty from Hugo Tolot (3-0), but their advantage was short-lived since Thibaut Malter, the USVL opening half, equalized a few minutes later (3-3). Shortly before the break, the locals launched a beautiful offensive, but it was countered on the midline in a dazzling manner by the unionists who obtained a penalouche which led by a dazzling attack on the left wing where the back Lilian Lassaigne was Completely set aside before going to flatten (3-8).
In the second period, the Cassipontines resumed a little hope with a second penalty by Hugo Tolot (6-8). At the time of play, the rear and captain of the COP XV gave a layer with a breakthrough in the opposing defense, but the support arrived too late. A few minutes later, the Valley-du-Lot was sanctioned in a closed melee, but Tolot lacked the penalty that would have enabled the premises to pass in front. Ten minutes from the end, the Cassipontines went back to the attack, but still underwent one against visitors who were pursuing the foot until the in-goal and narrowly lacked the second try since the ball was out of the field. The COP XV was still very hot, but still bowed on the second penalty of Thibaut Malter (6-11).
“We have burned our joker”
“We conceded our first defeat at home, facing a beautiful Fumélo-Tournnaise team well in place in defense and attack,” noted Hugo Tolot, rear and captain of Cop XV. We lacked automatisms and precision, conquering and on the balloons torn off. The outcome of the match is played out much, but our opponents were more realistic than us in brand zones and they deserve their victory. We burned our joker at home, but I am still proud of the intensity that our boys have shown that put a lot of valor and motivation. »»
“We had come to Régadous to try to keep our first place,” said Michel Estrada, manager of the Lot 47 valley. At the exit, we made the Cassipontines back from 6 to 9 points from us in the ranking. It's a good thing for us. I also think that with the previous match against Bon-Encontre, we had a little more pace than them. The first half was balanced but, thereafter, we occupied their camp well and we were very efficient in defense and our conquest was better than last week. This allowed us to take the ascendant to win the victory and take our revenge from the first leg where the Cassipiltins had beaten us with 3 points. »»
