"They're going to get a real backlash": Aimé-Giral, the boiling stadium of Perpignan awaits the Stade Français
Paris is playing a crucial match this Saturday in Perpignan with a view to staying in the Top 14. A match played in front of a passionate and fiery crowd.
By Romain BaheuxPlaying for your place in the elite when you were promised the top of the Top 14 is not easy. Having to travel to a direct competitor with four matches to go, experienced in this kind of mission, is not easy. And when, on top of that, the match will be played in one of the hottest and most hostile stadiums in the elite, we can really call it a trap.
Sorry to Stade Français, but that's roughly the schedule for Saturday afternoon (4:30 p.m.) in Perpignan (Pyrénées-Orientales), the second-to-last team with the same number of points as 12th-placed Paris. Because whoever says they're facing USAP means they're going to have to travel to Aimé-Giral, their stadium, their home of 14,200 spectators and a bit more, with a well-established reputation. It's tough here, and we're proud of it.
