Toulouse had not beaten the Palois at home since 2020. They finally put an end to this habit this Saturday, October 19, 2024 by winning (14-22) at Paufor the 7th day. Between the return of Jack Willis, Ange Capuozzo interrupted by a trainer, the technical gestures ofAntoine Dupont and a tenacious Toulouse defense, here is the summary of the match.

Toulouse gets into the match well

The meeting begins with a magnificent Honhada which wakes up the Stade du Hameau as well as with a try of Jack Willis to celebrate its big return and its recent extension. The team multiplies the passes and takes the defense at speed (4^e). The third line is at the conclusion of the work of Lebel, Arnold, Dupont and Costes. Blair Kinghorn converts the try then a penalty (10^e) to bring Toulouse’s serenity to life at the start of the meeting. The rear even failed to triple the lead at 51 meters (14^e).

The people of Palois see this as a sign that the Toulouse ogre is human. They besieged the Rouge et Noir at the edge of their line and ended up scoring, despite an initial defensive exploit from Antoine Dupont. It was therefore after a thorough shelling that Daniel Bibi Biziwu crosses the mark and flattens (20^e). Joe Simmonds transforms full axis, but then misses one (31^e). Julien Marchant widens the gap on the Toulouse side after a penetrating group (34ᵉ). Halftime score: 7-15.

Antoine Dupont resolves the situation

The beginning of the second act is marked by a grotesque situation. Ange Capuozzo rushes to score a try after a magnificent interception, but he is hampered by the trainer present on the field for Youri Delhommel, who clears the back illegally (51^e).

The score gets bogged down. The first spark of madness and efficiency will ultimately come from an impeccable chistera from the inevitable Antoine Dupont on the outside. Guillaume Cramont is recovering, it charges and flattens (64ᵉ). Kinghorn transforms. The Occitans believe they have done the hardest part. Before the locals revive the suspense thanks to Thibault Daubagna who makes the effort and marks the test of the hope of a crazy finale (76^e) and transform. In vain. It’s too late.
