TOP 14 Day 4
The scenario was very similar to that of the pregame against Bayonne two weeks ago. After a heavy defeat at home, Section had to look up from Hamlet.
The duel with the Parisians, who have had a poor start to the season, promises to be a tough one in front of the Canal+ cameras in prime time. After a rather sad first period, Vert et Blanc, not really against Palois, made a wonderful comeback. After trailing 3-13 at halftime, they opened with a series of mistakes: lost balls, pointless possessions, missed opportunities…
A new halftime, a new face, especially for the enterprising and determined men of Sébastien Piqueronies. Emilien Gailleton (53′ 11-6) and a powerful Beka Gorgadze (57′ 18-16) allowed Béarnais to take the lead for the first time in the match. An interception by Tagitagivalu allowed Manu to break through and set up a try for Attissogbe (68′ 25-16) and the section reversed the trend. As the icing on the cake, Joe Simmonds treats Hamlet as an attack bonus test. The second period ended 27 to 3 in favor of the sections. 30 to 16 win.
“I am very happy to get back five points. This is essential considering the rankings and we are very happy with this second half! Halftime was good because we were able to say nice things to each other, say the right things to each other, refocus and get moving again. “, explained Emilien Gailleton after the match. Two receptions gave the section 10 out of 10. The trip to Perpignan next Saturday will be a good test to assess the away progress, a black spot at the start of the season. It will be.
