Rivière-du-Loup 3L and National Québec met in the LNAH on 10 October 2026, with the visitors completing a comeback to win 4-3. The result shifts the table dynamics after a weekend that saw both sides tested. To be fair, the home side had looked commanding for stretches, but the visitors refused to go away.
Rivière-du-Loup enter this match third in the standings with three games played, two victories and one defeat. National Québec sit seventh after a single outing, a loss so far. By then the away end knew they had to respond, and they did.
There were no goal scorers or timing details supplied for this fixture, so the narrative rests on the scoreboard and what followed. The hosts had built a lead at some point, but the visitors found a way back. And here's the thing — matches like this are rarely decided by volume.
Looking at the recent record, Rivière-du-Loup have been solid but not untouchable. They beat Sen-Jorge twice and Jonquiere Marquis, yet they also fell to Sen-Jorge 2-5. National Québec's opening day was wider, a 2-6 defeat to Mariners Manotik, though they had previously held Sorel-Tre and Bataillon Saint-Jacquot closer than the final score suggested.
The points gap remains tight at the top of the table. Rivière-du-Loup's three-point cushion after two wins is modest, and National Québec's single defeat leaves room for recovery. The visitors now carry momentum into their next fixture, and the hosts will need to recalibrate.
