This Sunday evening (9:05 p.m.) at the end of the 7th day of Top 14, La Rochelle wants to react against UBB, a week after the slap received against Bayonne.
22:25
The Girondins are better (47′, 25-10)
Near the 22 meters of the UBB, Stade Rochelais is penalized on the ground. Scrum to come for the Bordelais who present a much better appearance at the start of the second half.
22:22
UBB test!! (45′, 25-10)
Uberti for the first Bordeaux try! Well offset by Garcia, the 3/4 Girondin center shows off his explosiveness to flatten the corner, powerfully. Garcia transforms! 25-10, Bordeaux Bègles comes back into the match a little.
22:21
Change for La Rochelle (43′, 25-3)
Replacing Favre with Danty, the La Rochelle center successfully completed his concussion protocol.
22:20
The Girondins imprecise (42′, 25-3)
The Bordelais had a throw to negotiate just in front of the opposing 22 meters but the throw was not straight, the Rochelais recovered the scrum.

Half time!
Stade Rochelais leads 25-3 against Union Bordeaux Bègles, reduced to 14 following the expulsion of Moefana. Danty (x2) and Dulin are the authors of the 3 maritime essays of this first period. The UBB is outdated, imprecise and silent for the first time this season in the first act.
21:57
La Rochelle test!!! (37′, 23-3)
Dulin for the 3rd try of the Maritimes! The Rochelais once again cracked the UBB defense. The Girondins are constantly overwhelmed by the speed and diversity of La Rochelle’s playing times. Hastoy transforms! 25-3 for the Yellow and Black who take off.
21:56
Change for La Rochelle (35′, 18-3)
Replacement of Danty by Favre, due to bleeding and concussion protocol.
21:56
Red card for Moefana!! (34′, 18-3)
The Bordeaux center is guilty of an unfair play on Danty, his head hits his opponent’s skull directly! Mr Trainini considers that Moefana does not make the effort to tackle. The UBB is reduced to 14 until the end of the match. The Bordeaux player will also be unavailable for the November tour of the XV of France because of this red card!
21:48
Bordeaux Bègles defends better (31′, 18-3)
New ball carried from La Rochelle but it does not progress at 40 meters, the Maritimes then retreat on impacts. The Girondins mount the carrier faster.

Dulin finds a 50-22! (28′, 18-3)
What a masterful kick from the La Rochelle back! Under pressure from UBB, Dulin found a very interesting 50-22. The Bordelais will be under pressure again.

Hastoy tries the kicking game (24′, 15-3)
The La Rochelle opener hits a mischievous kick, on the wing, in depth, towards Thomas. Garcia intervenes but finds himself under pressure.
21:38
UBB still in defense (23′, 15-3)
The Maritimes are back on the outskirts of the 22 Rochelais. The Yellow and Black put the pressure on and increase the playing time.

Cancoriet and Vergnes Taillefer return (21′, 15-3)
The two teams are again at 15 against 15.
21:31
Second try from La Rochelle!!! (17′, 15-3)
Thomas for the double!! A real test as a winger for the Rochelais who comes to flatten, in a corner, with speed and power. The Maritimes manage to overtake the Girondin defensive curtain in their playing time. Hastoy transforms! 15-3 for the Yellow and Black.

Danty very close to the 2nd La Rochelle test!! (13′, 5-3)
On a new maritime highlight, the 3/4 center is sent wide but is caught by the UBB defense a few centimeters from the Gironde goal! The people of Bordeaux were hot.
