Day 2: the summary of Union Bordeaux-Bègles – Bristol
. – (.)
With a three-quarter line still radiant, Bordeaux-Bègles clearly dominated Bristol on Saturday. The ticket for the eighth grade is already almost composted.
UBB is a hit in the Champions Cup and once again showed itself to be imperial against Bristol (36-17), with an offensive bonus on Saturday December 16. In line with the great success the previous week against Connacht (41-5), the internationals once again shined, like Maxime Lucu, author of the first try (5th) after a comeback very spectacular ball. Served on a jump from Damian Penaud, Louis Bielle-Biarrey dove into the goal (17th), before the inevitable winger of the XV of France went for his try (33rd).
9 tries in 5 matches for Penaud
In resplendent form, the former Clermontois has a blast in the movement game advocated by coach Yannick Bru. Damian Penaud has scored in each of his five starts with UBB and has already scored a total of nine tries in Gironde. In a more disjointed second period, Australian recruit Ben Tapuai (56th) and newcomer Théo Nanette (67th) increased the score, even if the Bears saved the honor in the meantime. Halfway through, the Bordelo-Béglais, the best attack in the competition (77 points scored), are almost guaranteed to compete in the round of 16.
