Colomiers defeated Angoulême 38-26 in Pro D2 on Wednesday evening. The result leaves the visitors in second place with 95 points from 30 matches. Angoulême remain ninth with 59 points after 13 wins and 17 defeats.
Colomiers have won 21 of their 30 games this season. Their away form has been particularly strong, and this result extends their push for promotion. Angoulême have struggled for consistency, with only 13 victories across the campaign.
The visitors took control early and maintained their advantage throughout. Colomiers' attacking play proved too much for the home side's defence. Angoulême showed fight but could not match the visitors' intensity for long periods.
For Angoulême, the result keeps them mid-table but does little to change their trajectory. They have not won since April and face a difficult run-in. The gap to the top six remains significant with only two matches left.
Colomiers now sit 36 points clear of Angoulême in the standings. Their second-place position looks secure, though they will want to maximise their points total. The away win adds to their confidence as they prepare for the playoff push.
