Top 14: Bordeaux Bègles stumbles and gives up its leadership position, the ranking

Top 14 Bordeaux Begles stumbles and gives up its leadership

New leader in this French rugby championship after the defeat of Bordeaux Bègles this Sunday, October 20.

In today’s clash between Bordeaux Bègles and La Rochelle, the European champions won 32-22 and are almost level with the Bordeaux team in third place in the ranking. “We got into the match very badly, with a lot of timidity in the collisions. We lost a lot of balls against the Rochelais who we knew would attack furiously. The first half hour was catastrophic in terms of engagement, so the technical mastery was weak” analyzed Yannick Bru after the match.

In the ranking, it is Stade Toulouse which takes advantage of this setback to regain the leading position in the Top 14 thanks to its victory on the Pau field. This day offered river scores with Clermont who crushed Vannes by scoring 55 points, Racing fell heavily on the Bayonne field, just like Stade Français in Castres. At the bottom of the ranking, Montpellier is once again in the red zone after its scathing defeat against the RCT which has finally noticed tests.
