The Irish , double European champions (2006 and 2008) caught short in the first period and unable to do their second delay concede them their first home loss after 22 straight wins in the group stage and could take the bonus point.
With the win, the DSO (10 pts) took command of the Pool 1 before the Saracens (9 pts) and Munster (9 pts), that he will meet next Saturday at the Marcel-Michelin Stadium.
Review the over match
In their cauldron of Thomond Park, where they lost only three times in the group stage since the creation of the European Cup in 1995, yet they were waiting for their 100 th European victory. But Auvergne had prepared their case and have demonstrated a certain realism scoring two tries in the first 40 minutes (16-6).
Fritz Lee, enormous for 80 minutes, was and extract the first maul to flatten in the in-goal (1 th ) just after kickoff, before seeing one of his country passes arrive at Wesley Fofana, which overflowed the defense (20 th ).
If Camille Lopez had not missed both conversions and the first of his two penalties, albeit difficult, the match could even be folded well earlier. But the opener was beautifully taken through a penalty (30 th ) and a hard drop (34 th ), which outpaced the Irish.
