Bielle-Biarrey‘s 80-Metre Sprint Secures Bonus Point for UBB in Victory Over Lyon
Bordeaux, France – October 5, 2025 – Louis Bielle-Biarrey, the explosive winger for Union Bordeaux Bègles (UBB), delivered a stunning 80-meter try against Lyon this Saturday evening at the Stade Chaban-Delmas, securing a crucial offensive bonus point for his team in a 32-20 victory. The try, scored five minutes from the end of the match, ignited the home crowd and solidified Bielle-biarrey’s status as a Top 14 standout.
The UBB were already leading but focused on maintaining their advantage rather then aggressively pursuing the bonus point when Bielle-Biarrey intervened. Launched from a maul by scrum-half Valentin Hutteau, the winger executed a dazzling sidestep to evade Alexandre Tchaptchet before unleashing his blistering pace. He navigated the defensive line, outpacing Sam Simmonds and fending off Monty Ioane’s attempted tackle to touch down in the in-goal.
“All wingers like to play this kind of ball. It succeeded as I went to the end,” Bielle-Biarrey humbly stated to Canal+ after the match. His teammate, Nicolas Depoortere, praised his consistent impact, saying, “It has become normal for everyone. We certainly know that ‘Loulou’ runs at an indecent speed. This is really a plus for us and our team. I hope he will continue to give us the direction.”
The remarkable try also marked a significant milestone in Bielle-Biarrey’s career, making him the UBB’s all-time leading try scorer with 47 tests in a Girondin jersey. The win provides a much-needed boost for the UBB following a recent heavy defeat against Stade Français.
