The Toulonnais, undefeated at the Mayol stadium this season, won again (36-24) this Saturday against the Ile-de-France residents, during the 14th day of the Top 14.
Against Toulon, Racing 92 was able to believe it a few minutes from time, but this season, Mayol is impregnable. In the wake of their official scorer Gaël Dréan, again author of two tries on Saturday (ten in total this season), they crushed the Ile-de-France residents who were too imprecise (36-24). For the Racingmen, the situation becomes even more complicated. The teammates of Nolann Le Garrec, author of two tries, have not won in the Top 14 since November 2, remaining with four defeats and a draw against Lyon last week. With a recurring problem: their chronic indiscipline.
At a press conference, Racing’s English manager, Stuart Lancaster, spoke about this recurring problem this season. “We receive a yellow card at a key moment (for Jordan Joseph in the 36th minute following a dropped ball, Editor’s note). We spoke with (former international referee) Mathieu Raynal this week to try to understand what we could do better in terms of discipline. We received 20 yellow cards in 14 matches! We have to discipline ourselves.”

“Even last season, I never had this problem”
And to continue: “So we are going to train with referees to try to discipline ourselves. It’s even stronger when a referee tells you in training that it’s forbidden to do certain things. The referee referees science, I coach the players and I can watch every detail of the players while the referee referees. Personally, I have never had this problem in my career. Even last season I never had this problem. But this year, it’s complicated.”
