14th day of Super XIII, Limoux who seeks to consolidate his place in the Top 6 receives Toulouse in search of his first victory of the season.
Passed very close to hanging Lézignan last week (18-22 defeat) Toulouse is still looking for his first victory of the season. It will not be easy in Limoux who seeks to create a dynamic at the end of the season in order to be competitive in the final stages.
Limoux and Toulouse in the elbow
Toulouse kicked off and from the first play chain, Limoux finds the breach. The former Toulousain, Justin Bouscayrol, escapes behind the outfit and gives Zachary Santo in support. The return of Tony Maurel stops the attack and causes the ball to be lost to the back Limouxin.
The two teams work well during these first minutes. Little by little Limoux wins the advantage of the field and on a classic attack well executed, Romain Puso beats his opposite to open the brand. Connor Broadhusrt misses transformation, 4-0.
Limoux continues its territorial domination but commits faults near the opposing line. Toulouse has trouble getting out of his camp but a brunel uprooting on Santo gives to a good ball. The offshore attack is well constructed, the Romeo Tropis Center Tony Maurel which scores against its former team. Transformation also failed, 4-4 in the 20th minute.
Toulouse who had just recovered in the match, commits a hand at the start. A few held later, Broadhurst will mark after a pass feint, 10-4. Limoux continues his work as a undermining. A release allows McWhirter to pierce. He cannot serve Zac Santo but on the following outfit, Bastien Ader marks in a corner. It is transformed, 16-4.
-In the last 5 minutes, Toulouse will benefit from several game channels in the opposing 20 meters. Stéphane Guillon will end up going through a mouse hole to extend the arm and reduce the gap on the horn, 16-10.
Limoux keeps the score
Limoux resumes his territorial domination but still commits too many faults to hope to mark again. Toulouse, invigorated by his test just before the break, has regained confidence and is more to its advantage than in the beginning of the first period. But as in the first period, it is Limoux who marks first by Justin Bouscayrol behind the held, 22-10.
The test has not changed anything and Toulouse continues to be offensive if not really dangerous. Limoux commits faults and Toulouse benefits. Justin Tropis, very in sight like his brother, since the start of the match, has erased three players and resists the return of Zac Santo to score. Tony Maurel transforms into a corner, 22-16.
There are 10 minutes left in Toulouse to come back. Unfortunately for the Olympians, several faults will prevent them from having a chance to score. Limoux will even end the match with a penalty following a delay tackle. Limoux finally won 24-16 in a balanced match and Toulouse left with the bonus.
