Corrected by PSG just before the break, Limoges, astonishingly promoted, resumed its forward march by dominating Toulouse (30-26) on Friday evening during the 8th day of Lidl Starligue. At the same time, Chartres beat Ivry (32-28) and thus leaves the red zone.
The slap of October 31 at Coubertin against PSG (42-20) did not cut Limoges’ legs at all, nor his momentum. For many, this drop inflicted by the six-fold reigning French champions at Limougeauds marked the beginning of the end for the promoted, promised, in particular by his detractors, to a return to rank as fast as the speed at which the former resident of ProLigue had made a name for himself among the elite, with in particular this victory last month against Nantes (32-31) which confirmed that the second place of Limoges was anything but undeserved or usurped. It was still necessary to know for the second in the championship to immediately regain its cruising speed, Friday night at his home on the occasion of the arrival of Toulouse on behalf of the 8th day of Lidl Starligue. Dragan Gajic, still dazzling despite his 36 years (10 goals Friday) and his teammates worked perfectly there, and added at the expense of Fenix a fifth victory to their already well-filled counter by dominating with a lot of seriousness (30-26 ) their evening visitors.
