What a reaction from the Union Bordeaux-Bègles!
A week after its rout in the Top 14 against La Rochelle, UBB qualified for the quarter-finals of the Rugby Champions Cup by beating the English Bristol (36-17) on Sunday at the Chaban-Delmas stadium.
Authors of a match full of self-sacrifice against one of the best teams in Europe, the Bordelais scored three tries by Jalibert, Dweba and Ducuing.
