Biganos-Pandas, today Saturday, at 3 p.m., in Biganos (glassworks gymnasium).
The Pandas first team continues its second meeting of the French championship, with a second consecutive trip, this time on Gironde soil, in Biganos. A resident of the Elite 2 championship last year, Biganos approaches this meeting against Montauban with a certain confidence. Indeed, they achieved the surprise of the first day, by winning on the field of the Lions of Saint-Jory, accustomed to the Elite games in recent years, allowing them to nourish some hopes with the reception of the Tarn- and-Garonnais. But, on the Montauban side, the inaccuracies in attack during the victory at the Toulouse Olympic Stadium were reviewed and corrected during training, and this move comes at the right time to perfect these automatisms. A match where we expect to see the Ricardo Pereira/Mostefa Abassi combination again, very prominent when they entered the game, 15 days ago. Victory is essential, and this time in style, before hosting the Basques of Aingirak Euskadi, on Sunday November 17, at 4 p.m., for the first shock of the season.
The composition. The Montalban squad for this trip will be made up of Lionel Alazard, Ricardo Pereira, Nicolas Lemaître, Yannick Martin, Vincent Rose, Jérôme Seixas, Miguel Duran, and Mostefa Abassi.
Tribute. There is no doubt that the team will pay tribute to their former partner Benoit Farges, who died yesterday, in this match, or on November 16, for the first shock, against Aingirak Euskadi.
Hen is. Team 2 is exempt this weekend, and will return to Fobio, also on November 16, against Toulon (2 p.m.).
