Castres are penalised following a high tackle in a very kickable position. Iribaren opts for the posts and makes not mistake with the attempt, bringing the gap back down to 7 points.

We are underway with the second half!

Castres win a penalty from the resulting play thanks to Montpellier being offside. Kockott makes no mistake with the attempt on goal which turned out to be the last play of the half. It is Castres that go in at the break as deserved leaders following a highly impressive opening half of play. Consistent ill-discipline however has been a major problem for the visitors and has been truly punished by the boot of Kockott. However, with only 10 points separating the sides, it is very much all to play for.

Castres put in a very clever kick through and the ball is spilled forward by Artru. Castres have a scrum on the 5m line.

The ball is turned over and Castres clear the lines.

Montpellier are on the attack, they find themselves just outside the Castres 22

Kockott makes it 3 from 4 in successfully slotting the ball between the uprights.

Poor tactical kicking from Montpellier sees the ball fall straight into the hands of Rory Kockott. The Montpellier defence are offside and a penalty is awarded to Castres.

Castres launch a promising attack once again and force a penalty. Kockott makes no mistake with the attempt on goal and extends the lead to 4 points.

Montpellier hit back straight away thanks to the boot of Teddy Iribaren. There's now only 1 point separating the sides.
