Zapping World Fifteen Shield of Brunus, XV of the Roses, World Cup 2023…
Dominators from start to finish, Ronan O’Gara’s Rochelles masterfully handled this second day of the Champions Cup, with the Maritimes facing a burst of pride from the Northern Irish in the second half but not faltering to win.
In the first period, three-quarters Bryce Dulin and Antoine Hasteau scored a try each, while in the second, Pierre Bergerit distinguished himself. The La Rochelle opener capitalized on a pack of ultra-dominant forwards in the first half following a lack of discipline from their opponents on the evening to score points (21 points) on foot.
Les Rochelles continue their fine run in the Champions Cup with a second win. With 9 points already in Pool B’s provisional classification, they took a big step towards qualification.
Ulster- La Rochelle : 29-36 (BD)
In short
Ronan O’Gara’s Stade Rochelle put on a good show in the first half, scoring two tries, but clearly rested on their wide lead in the second half. This is still a fresh win for Maritimes in the Champions Cup.
