THE FIRST TRY OF THE SEASON FOR PERPIGNAN!! (8′, 5-0)
CROSSDALE ESSAY – What a launch from USAP. After an initial fixation point in the center of the field, Franck Azema’s men launched the game with two passes behind and a pass on a step from Veredamu which made the difference. Behind, Allan played well the surplus number for Crossdale who only had to finish. 5-0 for USAP.

Bayonne with success (1′)
After a ball lost in contact in front of the 22, Aviron gives possession back to USAP who spreads and plays with their feet. But Orabé recovers and finds indirect touch in the Perpignan camp.
14:32
Here we go! Good game to all!
The kick-off is given by Aviron. Perpignan through Mc Intyre gets out of it and finds the touchline just in front of his 22 meters.

Minute of applause in honor of Medhi Narjissi
Having passed away this summer in South Africa, Medhi Narjissi is honoured with a minute’s applause by all of Jean-Dauger, as will be the case on all the pitches in France this weekend.
14:29
The players enter the pitch!
What an atmosphere at Jean-Dauger where, as usual, the players enter the field a few moments after a Pena Baiona echoed by the entire stadium
14:27
Weather report
A bright sun and a perfect temperature for a rugby match. It promises to be a spectacle

14:19
The beginning of the end for Camille Lopez
Having become a figure of Aviron Bayonnais in the space of two seasons, Camille Lopez (35 years old) is preparing to play his last season as a professional. And it starts with a start against USAP for the first day. He will still be essential this season despite the recruitment of Joris Segonds.
14:15
USAP wants to get off to a good start
In difficulty at the start of last season with 4 defeats in its first four matches, Perpignan has one goal in mind when arriving on the Basque Coast: to start its season with a victory and take points already. Captain Jeronimo de la Fuente has announced it: he and his teammates want to put USAP “back in the top basket”.
14:11
Germain in the starting line-up, Segonds on the bench… the recruits already on deck for Bayonne
Aviron’s star recruits should, with the exception of Manu Tuilagi (injured), all make their first appearance at Jean-Dauger today. While Joris Segonds will be on the bench with Habel-Kuffner, Baptiste Germain, who arrived from Stade Toulousain, will start with the number 9 on his back.
14:03
Two teams that want to create a surprise
After a successful 2023/2024 season for today’s two opponents, during which survival was achieved without too much difficulty, Perpignan and Bayonne aspire to greater things this season and see themselves as party poopers in the race for the Top 6. A victory today would ideally launch the season for one or other of the two teams.
