Vannes and Aix reach the semifinals of Pro D2

” We’re in the semi-finals! We’re in the semi-finals! » La Rabine Stadium, sold out for the eleventh time this season, sang at the top of their lungs. And the bagpipes blew long into the night while the leader rolled: eight attempts and a heavy score for Rouen (52-14). A largely improved win for RC Vannes, synonymous with qualification for the Pro D2 semi-finals. Vannes will have the opportunity to arrange these semi-finals on 31 May or 1 June. Hoping for an eventual final to reach the Top 14 on June 8 at the Ernest-Wallon stadium in Toulouse.

Aix-en-Provence also did well by winning (43-8) against Valence-Romans (43-8) who conceded seven tries. Thanks to this new improved success, Provence Rugby (2nd, 86 points) confirmed its place in the semi-finals after the loss without bonus from Béziers to Grenoble (34-19). FC Grenoble signed their seventh victory in a row against AS Béziers (34-19). As well as being dominated by the Isère pack, Biterrois who had rotated his squad was punished by his indiscipline and his mistakes. Price: 24 to 7 at the break (a double from Javakhia 6th and 39th, Sarragallet 14th). The punishment continued after the dressing room with an attempt from Couiloud.

CA Brive won their derby against Aurillac (45-13). An improved victory that allows the Corréziens to return to the top 6. This promises for the last two days of the championship.

In the opponent’s Landes derby, Dax went for a historic victory (13-18) on the Mont-de-Marsan field. Finally, Soyaux Angoulême achieved a great achievement on the 28th day by winning against Nevers at the Stade du Pré Fleuri (15-16). A win that ensures the Charentais remain in Pro D2. Colomiers won 24-20 against Montauban.
