Confluent 39 – Issigeac 16
For this top-of-the-table match, the Confluent hosted an ambitious Périgord team, promoted from the year, which remained on a good series of four victories. The Lot-et-Garonnais wanted to mark their territory from the outset and immediately came to put pressure on the visiting camp. After a great conquest beyond the 22, Brunetaud took the interval with a nice acceleration, crossing with Dulong, launched, who found Bousquier outside for the first try of the match (7-0, 3rd). A quarter of an hour into the game, Dordé added three points from a penalty before, gradually, Issigeac got his hands on the ball and in turn came to weigh on the local defense. This highlight will be immediately rewarded when after a series of close percussions, the ball will be pushed aside and, with a beautiful skipped pass, Moulinier will be shifted to the wing to bypass the defense and score a try which will revive the team visitor (10-5, 17th). If, in the 22nd minute, Dordé will give some breathing room after a penalty, it is a complicated end to the half that the Confluent defense will have to face, still managing to keep its line clean and reaching mid-point. time without conceding points on this big highlight for the visitors (13-5, 40th). At the start of the second period, Issigeac will obtain three points from a penalty (13-8, 41st). The CRC A few minutes later, it was Antonin again who found the space on a restart from his 22 to serve Londéro who flattened into the in-goal (25-11, 50th). Almost ready to go, the men from Confluent will continue to follow. Corentin Brunetaud will recover the ball and serve Londéro for his second personal try (32-11, 53rd). Stunned by these twenty points conceded in ten minutes, the visitors will not have finished their ordeal since, on a penalty, the ball will be captured by Fourteau who will launch Correia, pushed by his forwards, for the fifth try of the Confluent (39-11 , 66th). Courageous, the visitors will try to react in the last ten minutes and will be rewarded with a try which will not take away the offensive bonus point for CRC XV (39-18, 78th). With this excellent result, the Confluent takes advantage of the misstep from Sainte-Foy to Sainte-Livrade to take the leadership chair.
