the essential
Against La Salvetat/Plaisance, a direct opponent for remaining in Federal 3, the Ariégeois suffered another defeat on their Moulin-Neuf pitch which hurt (22-27). The defensive bonus point collected is not enough to make the Ariégeois happy.
Union Sportive Tarascon Club La Salvetat/Plaisance. However, the Reds and Whites put their heart into the work, rewarded for their domination at the start of the match by two penalties from Charenton. However, with the wind, sometimes violent yesterday afternoon at Moulin-Neuf, the partners of Rivière, promoted to captain since Dumas' injury, never managed to cross the opposing line. On the contrary, La Salvetat/Plaisance, on each occasion, tried to start the game. It is quite logical that Gély, after a breakthrough from De Giusti, relayed by Garcis, runs between the posts, in the 29th minute. With Palloure's penalty, which transformed the try, it was the visitors who led the score (6-10). It's hard for US Tarascon who don't cheat, but make more mistakes, and don't manage to endanger a yellow and blue defense that isn't very calm. After a series of penalties, the players from Rescannières and Tourtoulou, new faces on the bench on this “chilly” Sunday, were rewarded. The red and white pack sends Gabin Colleoni to paradise (35th), a player returned to the “heel” in place of Robin De Macedo, who joins an already far too full infirmary. The locals are taking control again, not for long. On a final foray in the first act, the Haut-Garonnais put the canes on the wing opposite the stands: Dupuy runs off and finds Mercadier who dives into the Tarasconnais goal (11-17).
A defensive bonus snatched from the siren
From the restart, we think the match is over when La Salvetat does it again with its pillar Garcis, and the foot of Palloure. 11-24, mass is (almost) said! With the wind, visitors manage. They even had the opportunity to kill the match, but failed twice due to hand faults. In this game, the Ariégeois are not left out. The tumbles of Claverie on his wing, the rolls of the forwards, with the Colleoni brothers at the spearhead, and a second Alozy – Lapeyrigne line armed for the fight, are too often stopped by errors, faults whistled by Mr. Esteban. Just after the hour mark, Fernandez, exemplary in all areas of the game, as often, gives hope to the people of “Moulin-Neuf (16-24). The tension is palpable, the locals monopolize the ball, sweep the field, but do not make a difference. Charenton passes a penalty (19-24, 77th). The Stadium does not have time to believe in the return of its protégés, because Palloure imitates him in stride (19-27, 79th). On the siren, White offers the defensive bonus point to the Tarasconnais (22-27). Small consolation for a valiant group, which, even if numerous absences weigh on its performance, does not seem capable, for the moment, of offering a sufficient level of play to hope for maintenance at the Federal level.
Excellencies B. Tarascon-La Salvetat/Plaisance: 11-18.
In the locker rooms
Thierry Tourtoulou (coach of Tarascon-sur-Ariège): “We saw improvement in conquest and ball circulation, even if we couldn't get through. We find ourselves in tackles, in individual errors. It's infuriating. We take too many points. We're going to work. We are making progress and we must continue to fight, and reconnect with confidence. »
Michel Audabram (co-president of Tarascon-sur-Ariège): “I’m obviously disappointed. We leave a lot of energy on the pitch, but we don't make it happen. It's hard. »
Nicolas Lacroix (back coach of La Salvetat/Plaisance): “It was complicated, against a valiant Tarascon team. We need to make the game easier, but we make too many mistakes. We have to kill the match after our try as soon as the second half resumes, and we don't do it. Result, we keep Tarascon in the match. But we're not going to be choosy, we came for two victories, in “one” and “two”, and it's done. »
