The Toulouse lost 32-18 on the floor of Nantes and remained at the gates of European places (7th).
Like a festive air. Worse, a rock concert. Deafening, overheated, where the public does not want a first part but its idols on stage. And the H Arena was entitled to it: ten short minutes to wait (2-1 10e). Ten minutes to hold the pressure, with a defense closing ranks, a Feuchtmann coming to challenge a terribly robust wall in front of Nielsen, determined to celebrate his der Nantes. How often he set fire to an audience dedicated to his cause.
The very good start of his counterpart and former member of the Cantegrel house would unfortunately become insufficient for the Toulousains, carried away by an uncontrollable surge (5-1 14e14-7 29e). Because despite the efforts, the defensive upscaling of the Fenix no longer curbed the local euphoria that continued to grow.
After the break, the starters continued their goodbyes in euphoria: a Balaguer goleador appointed to the evening punished Cantegrel and Ferrier, Robin demonstrated once again that he had done well to put his retirement project in the closet (22- 9 40e28-11 47e).
And when Gilbert and his friends were hoping for a little breath of respite, Lazarov came to draw (30-15 54e). A torture in a furnace where the violet fever did not come down (32-18), ready to seize Bercy on Saturday…
