The Toulouse team lost once again in Castres (28-23) this Saturday evening for the 5th day of the championship.
The curse continues. After the defeat suffered on its lawn last weekend (12-16) against UBB, Stade Toulousain has just suffered a second consecutive defeat at Castres (28-23) this Saturday evening for the 5th day of Top 14. Despite a good start to the match where Thomas Ramos notably stood out, scoring a try (8th) and two penalties, all punctuated by a powerful achievement from Peato Mauvaka (33rd), the French champions in title were overthrown by inspired and opportunistic Tarnais.
Toulouse damned in the Tarn
On a pitch where they have not won since April 2019, Ugo Mola’s players conceded three tries, through Santiago Arata (18th), Will Collier (49th) and Louis Le Brun (55th). Despite a last dangerous possession where the European Champions could have snatched victory, the Toulouse residents were unable to find the fault but still left Castres with the defensive bonus. With this new setback, the Stadium could be ejected from the podium in the event of an improved victory for Clermont or a simple success for Toulon. The two teams will face each other at the end of the 5th day this Sunday evening (9:05 p.m.). A meeting that you can follow live with commentary on our site.
