Two defeats conceded in Toulon and against Racing on a gap of three points slowed down the dynamics of the UBB. A weak moment as in any season assures Christophe Urios who has endeavored this week with his staff to work in quality and precision to regain victory.
France Bleu Gironde: After two defeats, is there any doubt?
Christopher Urios : We lost twice. Defeats that hurt us because we can win these matches with a little more control. Today, we are well aware that we do not play our rugby well. We need six actions to put one. We are no good. We seek to improve, to progress. It is not a question of revolutionizing everything. We are always first with a little lead. I don’t see what we should be worried about. We’re going to find the spark that makes us turn around. We have our eyes wide open. We are in a phase which is not the best. I asked the guys and the staff to be the best possible, to be square. We are not today. There is no doubt.

Is this match in Toulouse a match that you checked off?
We have two good teams but they are lame. In any case, it will be a great battle because I know the house opposite so well… It will be somewhat the same spirit as in Toulon. We did not position this match as a very important match as it was the case in the first leg (editor’s note: 17-7 victory). We are taken care of. It is important to meet on what we have to do. We were taken care of because we need it and we have work.
Was the idea of pushing Toulouse a motivational lever?
We don’t care. I know how the game will go. Toulouse is a club with a great winning culture. They are in trouble but it won’t last long.
