Mathieu BASTAREAUD a été reconnu responsable de « Brutalité » et plus particulièrement de « Frapper avec le bras ». C’est le degré « moyen » de l’échelle de gravité qui a été retenu, soit une suspension de 6 semaines (la tête de l’adversaire ayant été touchée, le point d’entrée correspondant est fixé au minimum au degré « moyen » de l’échelle de gravité). Après prise en considération des circonstances aggravantes (casier disciplinaire du joueur), la sanction a été augmentée d’une semaine.

Sont entrés en jeu : Fourcade, Gabriel Robez, Benoit, Dubuy, Taponard, Balconnet, Contardo. Carton jaune : Guidot (59e ) et Beqa (84e ). Les Messins, intransigeants en défense et omniprésents en attaque, ont maté le quinze jurassien. Et pourtant c’est Lons-le-Saunier qui a lancé les hostilités : Raoma a récupéré un long ballon donné au pied à un mètre de la ligne, mais au moment d'aplatir, a commis une faute de main. Secoués, les Messins. Mais sur une touche de Bivert, le ballon a voyagé entre les lignes pour parvenir à Kimmel, qui leur a offert les premiers points. Perrin a transformé pour le RC en tête (7-0). Neiceru manque deux pénalités faciles Meynier, pour Lons,a répondu en s’échappant pour servir Neiceru.
