Fédérale 3 – Left with the firm intention of achieving a result at Lacapelle-Marival on Sunday November 17, the Cassagno-Réquistanais missed out (19-13) and only brought home a defensive bonus point…
One point and that’s it: this could be the report of this meeting between the two poorly classified in group 8 of Fédérale 3. A point which allows Lévezou Ségala to retain the penultimate place in the ranking ahead of Lacapelle- Marival who, despite the victory, remains at the bottom. But then, this is really the only positive thing to put to the credit of the Lsanais, as they completely missed the meeting. If against Rodez (14-41 defeat at home), it was possible to find excuses for the yellow and green who had fallen against a team a tone above, this Sunday that was not even the case. Indeed, the Marivalois were hardly better than the Aveyronnais. Only a little extra touch of realism allowed them to win at home. We often tend to say that the best wins, but this weekend in the Lot, it was the least bad who did so.
In this meeting where mistakes followed mistakes, the LSA players combined everything that should not be done in a rugby match. Bad hands, forwards, dropped balls, almost non-existent kicking… Not to mention the bad choices! Whether in the first period, during which they were more or less equal with their opponent, or in the second, where they dominated territorially for a long time, the Lsanais were never able to materialize their highlights, so which they should have scored on numerous occasions.
Of course, everything is not to be thrown away and there were some nice movements, like a 40m casserole or some well-constructed attacks, but they never succeeded, with the exception of the attempt full of determination of the scrum half Hugo Bascoul (47th).
Does Lévezou Ségala still have his place in Federal 3? This is what we have the right to ask ourselves after Sunday’s match. “We must straighten our heads“, we heard after the match. But does this LSA still have the means? First elements of response on Sunday in Réquista, during the reception of the undefeated leader, Le Bugue, where it will be necessary to convince, while trying to overcome, even if the task promises to be very difficult.
