Dax, fell for the first time of the season on the last day, suffered a second loss of rank on Friday at home against Soyaux-Agoulême, which continues its full box outside while the Landes tumble in the standings. Mont-de-Marsan, winner for the first time at home, against Brive, continues, Colomiers, new runner-up, too. Valence Romans unlocks its counter. And give in the red lantern to Nevers.
The dense rain fell on the André-et-Guy-Boniface stadium this Friday evening is misleading. Because it is the good weather which is back on Mont-de-Marsan, large winner (33-11) by Brive and who at the same time chained a second row victory, also improved, while the Montois had not yet won on their lawn this season. After a good start to the meeting (8-0 in favor of the CAB), the Brivistes, leaders before the start of this 5th day of Pro D2, stalled in a very astonishing manner and no longer scored a point after the 11th minute of play, while the locals were able to take advantage of the unusual indiscipline of the Correzians to investigate the tests and fly to the score.
Second victory in a row for Mont-de-Marsan and second loss of rank for Dax. Remented unbeaten for three days, the Dacquois had broken the spine for the first time on the last day, on the lawn of Grenoble. This time, it was at home that the Landais, who had not lost in front of their audience since last October, drank the cup (16-10) and at the same time suffered a second blow on the head which makes them tumble in 9th place in the ranking. Soyaux-Angoulême, the Dax evening executioner, continues his full box outside and climbs in 4th position, on equal points with Brive and Montauban, who confirmed by pushing a team from Nevers completely upside down (worse start to the season for the Uson, now a red lantern) his feat last Friday against Biarritz.
Valence Romans finally holds his first victory
Colomiers is also in great shape. Winners in Nice (28-19) A week after having outlined Valence Romans, the Columérins are the dolphins of Biarritz, with a point behind the BO and two ahead of Béziers, also on the move to Aurillac but without succeeding in doing better than leaving with the point of the defensive bonus as a consolation batch (defeat 16-15). Many imagined that Valence Romans, still last and which had only experienced losses (four) since the start of the season, would not do much better on the occasion of Agen’s arrival. It was badly knowing the players of Fabien Fortassin. Thanks in particular to a very good first half, Kolinio Ramoka and his teammates, certainly well helped by the awkwardness at the foot of the Sua on Friday, finally unlocked their counter (30-25 victory). They also take advantage of Nevers new misfortunes to give them last place.
