But neither the power of their hooker seilala lam, which had allowed them to take the lead just before returning to the locker room, nor the success against the poles of their rear International Melvyn Jaminet (5 out of 6) will be enough.

The Castrais, without always playing just, had the merit of not going down and their combativity was rewarded with a try, ten minutes from the end of the match, the Levan Chilachava pillar as a result of a Balloon worn well negotiated by Tarnis Advisors.
