Castres finally gain a bit of field position with a scrum on the Brive 5 meter line. However an excellent show of character from the Brive defensive line marches them back and leads to a turnover.

Koyamaibole plays a key role in the lead up to the third try of the first half. The referee was unsure of the grounding but with the help of the TMO the try was awarded.

Brives pressure finally shows with some excellent play once again by the No 8 Koyamaibole giving the winger Radikedike the opportunity to weave his way through and allow Germain to add the extras.

Brive are now dominating comfortably up front but are failing to capitalise on their advantage.

Lack of discipline around the break down leads to c cheap penalty for Brive which Germain should have converted.

A series of pick and go's by Brive lead to Koyamaibole crashing over for the first try of the evening.

Castres start the more enterprising side with considerable territorial advantage in the opening minutes.

Welcome everyone to Ultimate Rugby's coverage of this evening coverage between Brive and Castres. Both teams will be looking to improve on their mid table position this evening.
