Ten months after their last championship match, Balma and Blagnac started the season off the ground, confirming their place among the favorites.
At the end of a well-conducted performance, the Balmanais dismissed Fabrègues (2-0), also intended to play the leading roles. Same feeling for the Blagnacais falling at the same time from Albères-Argelès (3-0). “We had to make a good start, we did it by putting the automatisms worked. The group gives off a lot of serenity” satisfied the coach Alain Bénédet.
TFC and Narbonne beaten
Promoted and surprise leader last season before the final end of the competition, Castanet also managed to enter the running by taking the best from the Nîmes reserve (2-0). “We have regained our automatisms and consistency in our game” analyzes coach Cyrille Lacombe.
Big performance also for the reserve of Rodez who confirmed his excellent preparation by going to win on the lawn of Alès (1-2). Deeply changed during the offseason, Muret for his part brought a point from Aigues-Mortes (0-0).
As for TFC and Narbonne, they experienced more difficulties. While the new Toulouse generation had a complicated baptism of fire in Agde (2-1), Narbonne lost at home against Beaucaire (1-2).
