VIDEO SUMMARY. TOP 14. A splendid Section Paloise suffocates Toulouse at the Hamlet
It is a partition in two stages which took place this Saturday, September 17 on the lawn of the Section Paloise. Against Stade Toulousain, the first part of the match was padlocked (an expression to say that we hesitated to go to bed), but the rest showed a number of more important twists. With a double from Maddocks at the end of the first half and around the hour mark, the Pau held the barracks against an experimental XV of the reds and blacks. Particularly aggressive in defense, the Greens regularly pushed back Ugo Mola’s men while his last attacked. Jordan Joseph’s teammates will also have benefited from a marked approximation of Toulouse. Sofiane Guitoune’s splendid laser pass for Dimitri Delibes, followed by a forward from the winger, remains the action that could have restarted the match. We also think of the sequence where Mr. Trainini interferes with a ball played after contact a few meters from the Bearn in-goal. The home defense seemed overwhelmed and the try seemed inevitable. Fortunately for the reds and blacks, the colossus Meafou scored a try in the action that followed. Richie Arnold’s red card in the 52ᵉ minute did not help Toulouse to recover.Top 14.

After the match, the players and staff members are presented to the press. In comments reported by South West, the Pau player Beka Gorgadze spoke. In particular, he made a point of honor on the work in the ground game. Indeed, the Palois often make the task complex in the rucks for the Toulousains. We had to wait for a little fatigue on the green side and the entry of Antoine Dupont into the Hauts-Garonnais to review cleaner ball exits for Toulouse. In a press conference, the Georgian describes this: “The ruck zones were one of our common threads. We knew they wanted to scratch a lot. We were expected. We are very proud of this result and to make so many supporters happy. We felt carried. It wasn’t a perfect match, but we did what we said during the week. Rugby is easier when you move forward. We put a lot of effort into the duels. This game kicks off our season.”TOP 14. ”I’ve played 80 minutes and I’m going to put out the fire”, Thomas Ramos clarifies
