The traces on the lawn of the painting of the central round of footballers of Paris FC, present a week ago for their beginnings in Ligue 1 at home, attest that the Stade Français must now share its Jean-Bouin stadium. But that does not mean that he will let anything this season, like tolerating a feat of the promoted surprise for the start of the top 14 season. Montauban did not get there, and leaves in the Tarn-et-Garonne with seven tests in the suitcases (47-24).
Almost three months to day after a maintenance acquired in pain after a painful match against Castres (21-10), Paris found its lawn and supporters on Saturday afternoon in a much more relaxed atmosphere. Scheduled at the unusual schedule of 13 hours by the Canal + broadcaster to launch the championship, the Parisians offered a nice end of sunny meals to viewers and 11,441 people from the public who came for the occasion in the 16th arrondissement of the capital.
“We felt that they were more confident”
Seven registered tests, an offensive bonus to get started and smiles all over the enclosure. “It was very good, we saw a lot of games, underline Mehdi and Brahim, two supporters of the Stade Français. We felt that they were more confident than last season. “It is a will of the staff that we change our philosophy,” explains the third line Yoan Tanga. We want to be a team that marks tests. When we advance like that, here we take pleasure. »»

In the same vein, Louis Carbonel, recruited a year ago and put on the touch in the spring, was impressive against the Montalbanais on Saturday, with a test and also two assists. Still in the satisfaction department, two of the recruits, the half of the scrum Tawera Kerr-Barlow and the Tani Vili center also spun in the in-goal.
Everything shines for Paris then? Not really. The men of Paul Gustard conceded at home four trials against a promoted to the fairly modest means which had identified the video of weaknesses in the Parisian placement. “It’s a lot,” concedes Yoan Tanga. There is also this indiscipline, with 15 faults committed by the stadists and this yellow card by Romain Briatte (27th) in the first period.
And above all, you have to wait for a little more oppositions and other contexts to see if the Stade Français has the means of its ambitions of final stages. Like the two trips to come to Pau then Lyon, after a season without outside victory for the men of the capital.
“We will stay very humble and not take the big head,” promises Yoan Tanga. There was a big victory today, but there are 25 games left. With undoubtedly less sun, and probably sometimes less smiles.
