Zapping World Fifteen Rugby: Top 15 highest paid players
At the end of the first day of the Top 14, Union Bordeaux-Bègles received Stade Toulousain in what was the shock at the top of this J1. A match that was played in a den of Chaban-Delmas sold out and held in suspense until the end nearly 32,500 spectators present. But above all a match where the intensity was high and the contacts rough. But despite this, no injuries were counted on the Bordeaux side.
However, two players were spared at the start of the week. The first, Rémi Lamerat, author of the first try of the meeting, was left to rest on Tuesday due to a blow received at the level of the sternum. The center with 19 selections with the Blues was nevertheless able to resume collective training on Wednesday. As for the second, Antoine Miquel, omnipresent against his former teammates, he was left to rest this Wednesday afternoon due to fatigue still present.
to summarize
