Maxime Lucu (scrum half of Bordeaux-Bègles, after the victory against Stade français 22-20 in the Top 14 semi-final): “This is a first for us, something new. To think that we are going to play a French championship final, that’s what we prepared for. We managed to break this spectrum, it’s something big for the city, for the club. This is happiness. We are happy, we are enjoying the moment but, behind, in the locker room, it was a return to calm. The reaction from the guys was incredible. We looked ahead to what happens on Friday: Stade Toulouse is a big player, a regular at winning titles. We don’t.”
