Toulouse Stadium Wins Third Title | UBB Defeat – Liberation

And at the end, it is still the Toulouse stadium that wins. The Red and Black managed, at the end of an extension, to be unpleasant from the Union Bordeaux Bègles (39-33), this Saturday, June 28 at the Stade de France, to offer a 24th title of champions of France. Above all, the Toulousains – who had already defeated the Girondins in the final of the Top 14 last year, on a different gap (59-3) – succeeded in an unprecedented series by winning three years in a row the Brennus shield.

The Stade Toulousain was able to count on his scorer Thomas Ramos, author of two decisive penalties, only points registered in overtime. Sufficient to decide between two teams that went blow for blow, reaching a 33-33 parity score at the end of regulation time.

At halftime already, nothing was done since the two teams had left on the score of 20 to 16 in favor of the Toulouse. It was first of all a scorer case, with points registered at the foot, before Jelonch and Willis for the stadium, peanned for the Union, came to flatten the ball in the promised land during a very disputed first period.
