For this derby of the Lagoin valley, the municipal stadium of Ger was to fill up on supporters of the two camps. It is the only regional final between two Béarnais clubs, separated by less than 10 km from each other. Well clever one who can make a prognosis, as the confrontations during the regular phase were tight.
Indeed, on October 27 Pontacq won 20-16, on February 9, Bénéjacq took revenge 15-10. With 4 and 5 points difference, as much to say that the two teams are equal, even if everyone has arguments to assert: “It will make a nice derby”, announces Laurent Toujas the president of Pontacq, while on the side of Bénéjacq, Guillaume Collet refers to the regular season: “it will be as in the championship, a tight part”.
The strengths of his opponent? For Laurent Toujas: “Bénéjacq has a large package of forwards, a third mobile line, three -quarter full and a good rear”. Guillaume Collet has targeted certain points on the Cape side: “Pontacq knows how to be opportunistic, they are good against and they have three quarters that run and hold the road”.
In short, as we have understood, in both camps, the danger can come from everywhere. In conclusion, Laurent Toujas launches: “It is our second final, we know that we only remember the winner”. For Guillaume Collet: “It remains a final at 50-50, but I have confidence in my guys”.
