Yesterday in Toulouse, deprived of Razanamahenina and Vialaret (training with the France 3X3 team alongside Aygalenq the Lot-et-Garonnais from Toulouse, also absent for this return derby from the Garonne), they gave the impression that this maintenance would be almost a miracle.
The first two shots attempted at 3 points succeeded, counter-attacks carried out smoothly, aggressiveness in attack (4 fouls for the visitors in just over 4 minutes), aggressiveness in defense, skill (nearly 59% success on shots in the first period), Toulouse, even without its injured captain Sahraoui, very quickly took the lead (16-4, 6th when Matthieu Hubert asked for his first time-out) and overtook 20 lengths ahead at the end of the first quarter (27-6).
Young people show up
At half-time, even if Stéphane Dao chose to leave Anderson Jr on the bench for the whole game to give Solle and Yangué-Tankeu some playing time, the locals increased their lead (50-17) by all the more easily as Johnson was forced to come and wax the bench on his 3rd personal fault (16th).
