VIDEO. The incredible failed attempt by Tomas Lavanini (Clermont) against Stade Français

Its roughness is particularly expected on the side of Clermont, history of bringing muscle to an Auvergne pack connected to alternating current. Facing the Stade Français, Sunday October 10, 2021, the Argentinian Tomas Lavanini made his big debut with ASM. And the second line was especially marked by an incredible failure.

At the 69^e minute of the match, while his team was led by two small points (16-14), Lavanini managed to counter Joris Segonds at the level of the Parisian 30m. A boulevard opens in front of him, all he has to do is pick up the ball for the test… except that the second line becomes totally tangled when it is flattened. Let us note immediately the big return of Léo Barré.
