Team emblematic of France's elite league, the Flash will participate in its sixth consecutive Diamond Helmet. Despite a difficult start to the season, players from La Courneuve are vying for their ninth league title in France (a record at this level). Real bugbear of Flash in the regular season with two wins, the Black Panthers Thonon-les-Bains bow in play-off score of 28-7.
For the third time this season in the elite championship of France, the Flash and Black Panthers clashed, and Savoyards may have many regrets at the end of this meeting. Indeed, during the regular season, the men of new coach John Allanach, inflicted two severe defeats in Flash (28-16 and 31-26). But in this game knockout, the Courneuviens did not tremble like the Thonon. While Jimmie Russell opened the scoring, his team was heard against a clearance kick 2 minutes from the end of halftime. The penalty dropped immediately and the lyrics just came back to equality before returning to the locker room (07-07).
Upon resumption, the Black Panthers, however, best attack in the championship, lost the ball three times on two fumbles and an interception. The Courneuviens, trained by the French head coach Bruno Lacam Caron, did did not pray to enjoy the excitement of their opponents. Transforming each of these opportunities to score touchdowns, the Flash flew to the score (28-07). Although Thonon do not give up scoring two touchdowns, they saw them aside by the arbitrators on two mistakes. Despite the influx of young American players in their workforce this year as runninback Fred Wells Jr., the Black Panthers could not avoid, for the 4th consecutive year, a play-off defeat in front of La Courneuve. One of the players under the team, Christophe Sirouet had probably imagined a different scenario for the end of his career. After 22 seasons in football, his title hopes come to an end, unfortunately, the gateway to the final. Flash
the side, the statistics are impressive. Crowned 8 times champion of France, the club president Julien Luneau holds the record of domestic securities tied with the Argonauts and is unbeaten since 2005. But before you can add another prestigious Diamond Helmet to their collection and become the most successful team in France, the Flash will face during its 18th final in its history, the formidable Spartan training. Players of Amiens, authors of a magnificent regular season completed in the first place, were eliminated in the other semi-final the Cougars of St. Ouen Alms (20-12). Despite numerous injuries to their star players such Marc-Angelo Soumah or Laurent Marceline and began their league complex, the Flash was able to raise its head at the right time. This mind, a hallmark of great teams, will once more put to the test, Sunday, June 27 at Hidalgo stadium Michel Saint-Gratien. The battle promises to be hard and beautiful.
