Taking advantage of the suspension of the Champions Cup and the European Challenge, the Top 14 is catching up and playing several matches at the start of the season postponed due to the coronavirus.
Counting for the fourth day of the championship, the duel between UBB and Clermont gave rise to a good confrontation and ended in a draw (16-16) and strong tensions between the staffs. Christophe Urios even bought a Clermont coach a few minutes before the final whistle.
“Don’t be smart, shut your mouth, I’m telling you, dropped the Bordeaux coach towards the bench of Jaunards. Shut your mouth! Yeah, yeah, yeah…”
Clermont staff targeted twice in a month
Captured live by the broadcaster Canal +, the words of the UBB manager were quickly eclipsed by the return to live and to the match.
According to the elements reported by the site Rugbyrama, Christophe Urios would have had Didier Bès, Franck Azéma’s assistant in charge of Clermont forwards, in the viewfinder.

It remains to be seen whether the hot Girondin technician will see the disciplinary commission of the LNR take up this file. At the end of December, the Toulonnais Patrice Collazo was blamed for indiscipline and nervousness after having launched a “shut up” to Franck Azéma.
Back to back this Saturday, ASM and UBB are provisionally fourth and fifth in the Top 14 with the same number of points. But the Jaunards will still have a game overdue against Lyon.
