Ejected from the Top 2 on the last day and a defeat in Perpignan (22-15), the UBB did not have time to ruminate on their frustration. She went back to work to prepare a roadblock which should attract the crowd to Chaban-Delmas.
Despite its inconstancy in recent weeks, the Union hopes to succeed in remobilizing to dismiss an opponent who snatched his ticket to the finals by defeating Toulon (21-16) last weekend.
Beat Racing in a cleaver match, UBB has already done it. It was April 11, 2021 in the quarter-finals of the Champions Cup (24-21) on a final and distant penalty from Matthieu Jalibert. This season, if the players of Christophe Urios won largely (14-37) at the Arena, they lost (13-16) at home in February.
The winner of the play-off will stamp his ticket for Nice where he will face Montpellier on Saturday June 18.
UBB-Racing 92 is to be experienced in full on France Bleu Gironde and francebleu.fr this Sunday from 9 p.m. with Arnaud Carré and our consultant Vincent Forgues.
