With three tries on each side, the match between Colomiers, who remained on the victory in Agen (21-22), and Vannes, who had beaten Carcassonne the day before (34-21), was spectacular.

The Bretons immediately scored with two tries from Hulleu (10th) perfectly served by a missed pass by Lafarge, and Tafili (27th) who finished a number of Zabalza still on the line, logically taking the 20-3 at the interval despite the expulsion of Pedemonte (25 °). Up front, Colomiers was too undisciplined (yellow cards for Granouillet and Javaux) and too imprecise against a great defense from Vannes.

Colomiers attacked the second period by camping in the field of Vannes which ended up bursting with the tries of Perrin (48 °) and Fepulea’i (52 °) and joined the opponent on a penalty from Girard per hour (20- 20). But Vannes, although outnumbered, will find the resources to take off with a goal of Percilier (74 °). Colomiers will be able to score a third try by Saurs (79th), too late to prevent the victory of the Bretons’ courage (27-30). A setback for the Columérins (3rd) who had obtained three wins in four days and were overtaken in the standings by Vannes, who arrived at Mont-de-Marsan in the lead of the championship before the other races on Friday.
