Following the defeat of the 4 Cantons-BHAP in Tyrosse, Lionel Girardi was nevertheless satisfied with the behavior of his team.
Lionel, what is your analysis of this meeting?
We were very weakened. We were also decimated with the last minute injury to Valentin Pistore, which forced us to sacrifice a player and be 22nd on the scoresheet. But we put a lot of heart and energy into it. We were even quite successful against the best team in the group. We really knew how to push them to their limits, because we worked hard on their offensive launches this week.

Are there any regrets at certain moments of the meeting?
We made a lot of small errors, and they scored two or three times on recovery balls, where we were disorganized. We’re a little frustrated. Around the 70th minute, we camped in their camp for ten minutes, without scoring, with a disputed try refused. If we had scored, we would have come back to 38-28 and the ending could have been different. But we sent each other collectively.
Was there something that clicked after the last two victories?
Of course. Mentally, we knew it. It did everyone’s head good, even sion never doubted. Now, we will have to pay for ourselves on Sunday against Peyrehorade. We want to validate this beautiful year 2024 experienced by the club. We will have four or five comebacks for this match, and we will want to put pressure on the clubs in front of us.
