TOP 14 Day 22
Against Lyonnais, the third best team in the home championship, our Green and White knew in advance how complicated it would be to bring a point back from Gerland. LOU made a great appearance from his hiding place and made all Pau’s hopes go in vain.
When possession is heavily in favor of Béarnais (64% against the match), the section has a lot of trouble realizing highlights. Conversely, Lyon took advantage of any opportunities they had, including recovering numerous balls from Les Palois. Couilloud (17′ 7-0) and Niniashvili (32′ 14-3) scored their first two attempts. However, Section is close behind Lyon thanks to a try from Lucas Ray (37′ 14-10), but this four-point gap will not last long. Ioane scores from a corner kick and LOU leads 21-10 at the break.
The Gerland residents continue to utilize minor ammunition like Kpoku after the ball carried (52′ 26-10). Lyonnais hit the nail on the head moments later when Jérôme Rey secured the attacking bonus (65′ 33-10). Undeterred, our Green and White scored twice in a row with Beka Gorgadze (70′ 33-15) and Samuel Ezeala (73′ 33-20). LOU’s sixth attempt didn’t take long and Tchaptchet got his team on target again with an attack bonus (76′ 38-20). It gets high marks for the extreme realism of the locals, which doesn’t compensate for the lack of precision and dedication of our Béarnais in meetings.
“It is a missed opportunity in terms of efficiency and pragmatism. The players fought but lacked efficiency. Today’s disappointment will not change our resolve. Let’s learn from this game so that you can receive Oyonnax within 15 days. » After the match, Sébastien Piqueronies explained: There are still 4 games left for Vert et Blanc to end the season on a high! Everyone gather at Hamlet in 15 days!
