Because if the Girondins led a large part of the meeting and who had made a first gap at the end of the first quarter of an hour (6-10, 18), the Anglo-Biarrotes knew, at first, to play their collective solidarity to get back into the game by scoring a 4-0 in eight minutes which seemed to put them on the right path (10-10, 26th).
“More in the regional league”
It didn’t happen. Because while the Girondins took the score, the local players lost their temper at the end of the first period, confusing speed and precipitation in a terrible first period finish. The guests fed on Basque mistakes galore, ending up with a 0-5, which ended up freezing a room in the Saint-Jean a little more, already cooled by the weather (10-15, 30°). Once again, Anglet-Biarritz deceived for just over a quarter of an hour in the second half. Not really reducing the gap but preventing it from increasing (18-22, 47°), to then fall back into the traps at the end of the first act. Infuriating when one remembers that in their room the Basques came close to feat against the current leaders of the chicken (Tardets and Narbonne).
