USAP scored seven tries against Castres this Saturday (43-12). For some of the bigger teams in the Championship, this is sometimes the house price. But for Perpignan, it hasn’t been in the Top 14 since 2010! Around the same time this year: it was March 27, 2010. USAP won against Stade Français (44-23) with a double from Jerome Porical and goals from David Marty and Farid Sid.

The stat is crazy and has been for a while. But it ended this Saturday, March 30. USAP hooker Victor Montgallard won his first career Top 14 match. As it stands, it doesn’t make much sense. But if we decide to highlight it, it is because the 21-year-old lost 16 matches in which he participated in the Top 14 since the beginning of his youth career, which began on May 22, 2022 in… Castres. . A statistic that still needs to be qualified, as there have been 13 away matches in particular and several trips where the USAP had no good intentions. But, that is, Victor Montgaillard, who made a good entrance, is no longer cursed!
