Grâce à sa victoire dimanche face à Saint-Raphaël-Fréjus, Millau a retrouvé le sourire. Stéphane Sécail

En proie aux difficultés depuis le début de saison, Millau a relevé la tête, dimanche 15 décembre, sur sa pelouse face à un cador de la poule (33-10), dans le cadre de la 11e journée de Fédérale 2.

Smiles on the edge of the field at the end of the match, smiles in the locker rooms, smiles in the stands… Undeniably, the Somistes, authors of a remarkable and authoritative game on Sunday against Saint-Raphaël-Fréjus (Carf), have decided not to give up this season and are getting back into the championship.

Faced with a very physically dense Var team who had come to Aveyron with big ambitions, the Millau players produced their best rugby on Sunday, something we had rarely seen this season, and above all converted their opportunities, whether by hand by scoring three tries, all magnificent, or by foot, with Bastien Zerouali who had a clean sheet in front of the crossbars, with four penalties and three conversions. The latter having also been impeccable in his role as a full-back.

A great start to the match

Beginning with the wind at their backs, the Millavois opened the scoring in the 3rd minute, before Rorato, on a masterfully played counter and with finally a favorable rebound, scored a try between the posts allowing his team to lead 10-0 after less than 10 minutes of play. The visitors, very strong, will react with their forwards.

Chatin scored a try which, converted, allowed Carf to come back to three lengths. Millau will then put its game in place, to the great delight of the public, and score a superb try by Roques at the end of the line, after multiple playing times. The end of the half will be more messy with a few clashes and fouls which will allow the Varois to catch up to 17-10 at the break.

A decisive month of January

In the second half, the Somistes will put in a lot of defensive pressure and counter the heavy opposing forwards on the touchline, and Zerouali will convert all the penalties offered to him to bring the score to 26-10 after the hour mark. Before the young Gabin Pipy, only 18 years old and trained at the club, scores a magnificent try after a great acceleration in the defense following a combination, thus completing his team's victory.

This is the success of a group that does not give up, as proven by all the substitutes who contribute their stone to the building for the benefit of the collective, which rediscovered, on Sunday, playing ambitions for the greatest pleasure of all. Som is not dead, and, benefiting from favorable scores in the other matches of the group, can consider the future more serenely, with in particular a month of January which could prove decisive.
