Paris – Top 14: end of scarcity for Clermont, Racing regia – L’Express

Toulouse (43 pts) must whip to try to join the Racing (48 pts) led the Top 14, since as his rival, he will have to win with the bonus, to La Rochelle from 8:45 p.m..

Previously, the Red and Black were joined by Clermont (43 pts too) who had not won in the Tarn since 1976 and was mired in a negative cycle after January missed.

The ASM strangely more comfortable outside than in his Michelin stadium this season, has won a fifth victory away from home (28-17). Auvergne experienced an air hole early in the second period but the contribution of the “ older “, namely flyhalf Brock James but also the center Aurelien Rougerie, tipped the balance in their favor.

James has scored 18 points with a fine decisive test five minutes from time.

Clermont and smile again after a painful early exit in the European Cup. To be confirmed at home to Oyonnax the next weekend.

– Private dessert Montpellier –

The successful performance on Saturday is to the credit of 92 Racing who won 39-35 in the field of FCG. He had to think unbuttoning jacket and pants to absorb orgy game proposed by the two teams in a more similar to Super rugby match at the arid Top 14.

The Parisians, who seem programmed to perform a great season, have even offered the offensive bonus (the second of their season) by scoring five tries in a match where everyone was bouncing a time by hand. This success was however marred by injuries and international Teddy Thomas Maxime Machenaud.

Behind Montpellier ate his black bread, bowing at her face to evil-rated Pau (16-19) after leading 13-6. It is a small feat for the Section had not yet imposed on the road this season and gritted teeth to the end and a penalty of Colin Slade to win.

The MHR, led lackluster for less than an hour by flyhalf Francois Trinh-Duc, gleans still a point that allows it to slip into the top six, but not convinced.

Finally, Bordeaux-Bègles is fed to the ordinary by winning 24-19 against a brave team of Agen.

The UBB and returned to Toulon (4th, 41 pts) which will move Sundays (4:15 p.m.) in Oyonnax.

On Friday, the French stage, champion title in France, took almost an hour to subdue Brive Jean-Bouin (32-17). The Parisian club still struggling, however, takes advantage of the defeats of Grenoble, Montpellier and Castres to return to “ only ” 11 points of the top 6.
