the essential
This Sunday, at 3:30 p.m., the 4C XV host Sainte-Bazeille on their lawn in Castillonnès, and hope to achieve success.
A week after their defeat against the leader, Le Passage (13-34), the 4C XV must absolutely return to victory or face a dark future.
The men of Xavier Renaudin and David Marty, who will play tomorrow at the Henri Moret stadium in Castillonnès, will have to put their heart into the work, play eighty minutes, avoid approximations and mistakes of all kinds, otherwise they will miss out of their match. On the banks of the Garonne, however, there were positives: the 4C XV held off this Passenger team for a good hour. They will therefore have to repeat this first period, where the Agen suburbs were dominated in numerous sectors by a team with a remarkable state of mind, coming to shake up the predictions.
“If we can put these ingredients in, we won’t be far away”
Tomorrow, against Sainte-Bazeille in Castillonnès, the locals will have to do it again and not just contain the visitors, but actually take the game into their own hands and score as quickly as possible in order to hope to break this negative spiral. Xavier Renaudin declared: “We want to stay on the line of conduct of the Passage, to hold the line high in Sainte-Bazeille until the end. Last week, the commitment and the desire were very good. We must now let’s be a little more precise about the discipline and the game system. In any case, that’s what’s most important. If we manage to put these ingredients together, we won’t be far from the goal.”
Tomorrow, this group will have to roll up their sleeves again to finally unlock their counter. It’s a complicated start to the season for boys who are not far away, of course, but who have to grow. This group is tight, and a hierarchy is already being established. So why not shake it up tomorrow? For this, the men of the Bastides du Haut Agenais will still have to put on the warming blue. Sainte-Bazeille is solid: a team that has always been difficult to play against, a formation that carries the ball, a robust pack and inventive back lines. In short, an adversary built to be a revealer. The “plum and white” are warned.
The group: Magnanou, Céra, Viratelle, Gauthier, Cadiou, Bouscaillou, Paillé, Chignac, Richard, Capelli, Gilbert, Garcia, Bergamo, Saint-Hilaire, Eynard, Bournac, Darini, Imbert, Capelli, Teixeira, Benne.
4C XV – Sainte-Bazeille to Castillonnès at 3:30 p.m., curtain rises at 2 p.m.
