After a good first half, Villefranche beat Saint-Gaudens 16-12 this Sunday afternoon and confirms its good start to the season.
Padlocked start to the match between two fairly imprecise teams. We had to wait until the 27th minute of play to see the first points with a penalty from Morgan Andral. The Wolves take the lead in this meeting.
Just before the break, Jérémy Ginestet allowed the Wolves to take the lead with the first try of the match. It's transformed, 8-0 at halftime.
Villefranche stays ahead
Returning from the locker room, the Aveyronnais make a breakthrough thanks to their Australian fullback Jordan Kempnich who scores a good try, Morgan Andral converts. This new realization awakens Saint-Gaudens who reacts with an essay by Thomas Lucas. Christopher Hellec transforms, 14-6.
Five minutes later, that devil Thomas Lucas scores again and scores a double. Christopher Hellec converts and the match is restarted, 14-12.
But the last word goes to Villefranche who adds two points on a penalty shortly before the horn by Morgan Andral. The Wolves won 16-12 and won a third consecutive victory. For his part, Saint-Gaudens leaves with the bonus.
