UBB Faces Injury Woes Ahead of Racing 92 Match in Top 14 Rugby

Union Bordeaux-Bègles must get back into the Top 14 after several weeks without a match, but especially after the pants down experienced at Matmut Atlantique, against Stade Rochelais. And for their recovery, the men of Julien Laïrle and Frédéric Charrier will travel to Lens to face Racing 92.

An early end to the season and a reduced workforce

This match against Racing, and all the matches at the end of the season, will have to be played, for UBB, without Antoine Miquel. As indicated by Sud Ouest, the third line came out injured in the neck during the said match against La Rochelle. And if the operation has not proved essential, the player’s season is already over.

This is not the only hard blow hitting the workforce of the UBB. Indeed, Sipili Falatea should not be in the meeting in Lens against Racing, due to an elbow injury. Vadim Cobilas is also very uncertain following a concussion.

Rugybrama also specifies that several second line players were preserved during Tuesday’s training: Jandre Marais and Thomas Jolmès. There is also the absence for several weeks of Bastien Vergnes who is affected in the cervical area, and especially that of Matthieu Jalibert, who is treating his ankle injury and therefore a return is hoped for but not before the very end of the season. .
