Whatever happens in the last five days, the ABC will have had a good season. She could even be called excellent with a few more wins. If tonight’s trip to Mont-de-Marsan seems quite within reach for the ABC, on paper, we must not forget that Stade Montois is playing part of its season in this match.
The Landais must, in fact, absolutely win in their room not to be among the relegated on Saturday evening. In this context it is advisable not to take into account the respective classification of the two teams (Agen 4th with 34 points and the Stade Montois 11th with 27 points) but especially to think of the fight which will surely be proposed to the Agenais.
A week off
What coach Fred Rocco confirms: “We absolutely must not expect an easy match or else we will be disillusioned. I hope the team will not go into ‘holiday’ mode. It is true that we had a week of break which, nevertheless, will have done the greatest good because the organizations were a little at the end of their rope. After this week of rest, the challenge will be to find the rhythm. For the rest, to With the exception of Adil Abbassi who is feeling some back pain, the team seems ready.”
On November 13 at the Stadium, the ABC had dominated Mont-de-Marsan with a score of 81 to 74. The Agenais present a completely different face but, once again, the challenge for the Landais will surely over-motivate them. Another great challenge for the ABC.
