USON Nevers hopefuls dominate Rouen to remain unbeaten in second phase
By scoring from their first opportunity, thanks to the power of Kleynhans out of the scrum, the Neversois have always been in the lead. But Rouen did not lower his head and was able to resist the sequence of playing times, with a good redistribution on the width, even if Villequenault planted the second Neversois try on a beautiful movement. “We played well with the ball and we wanted Rouen to challenge the balls on the ground more. Seeing that they weren’t going, we decided to insist in the axis at the break, ”says Horacio San Martin, coach of the Neversois three-quarters.
We were able to manage the highs and lows and we finished the game much better.
Except that the USON misses the opportunity to take shelter after returning from the locker room, with imprecision in front of the opposing goal line. And this is where Rouen came out of the woods, to register a qualifying try on the ball carried, their only weapon on the offensive level and come back to five points (12-7). “We did not panic at that time. We were able to manage the highs and lows and we finished the game much better. »

With the significant contribution of substitutes, like Sanchez in front or Penglaou behind, the USON does not let Rouen ignite. The Nivernais find flaws in the defense and often only the last gesture is missing to finish the job well. By dint of patience, the USON took advantage of a big domination in the closed scrum to register their third try, on a small side well negotiated by Depoux for Barbouche. “We usually say that we have a team to start the match and another to finish it. All the finishers contributed something. We are working well, the guys are motivated and we want to win this championship,” concluded Horacio San Martin.
