Beaten last weekend, the Saudrunois hope to revive this evening with a sixth victory.
> La Saudrune – Quillan/Limoux, this evening, 6:30 p.m.
It will be dark when this confrontation between the runner-up of the Catalan leader and his immediate pursuer coming from the upper Aude valley ends. However, it is possible to hope for a new spotlight on the Saudrunois.
This second place, the protégés of Romain Pissinis and Yannick Lussac must preserve it while waiting to take, possibly, their revenge, in exactly four months, at the expense of the rivals of Rivesaltes, Baixas and Espira, those the same face to which they practically did not exist last weekend. “A poor match on our part, yes, let us recognize it with all humility because we had not planned to make a strategic impasse in order to prioritize the upcoming match at home,” declared the first named, not satisfied and even disappointed. “We lacked character, which the very large number of injured cannot explain,” he insists.
As you might have guessed, facing the coalitions of Quillan and Limoux who are having a very good run, there will be no more question than that of a blackboard and major tactical considerations. From there to saying that rugby starts up front and that the pack will have to give its full measure in the deep axis, there is only one step. Which neither Belinguier (the left-hander who passed through Saint-Sulpice), nor Chabrié, nor Bigot, nor Zago will cross. Likewise, Poux is suspended while Desbrosses and Melac are unfit for service.
