Kockott misses with a chance to get the first points of the second half.
Kicker and scrum-half Machenaud is forced off for Racing but his replacement is also an established player, Welshman Mike Phillips!
Try scorer Juan Imhoff makes a break but the support is not there and nothing comes of it.
The second-half is underway!
PENALTY CASTRES. Good way for Castres to finish the half, scrum-half Kockott landing the points. They'll now head into the break 14-6 down which is a decent result for them considering the balance of play in the half.
Castres just cannot get their hands on the ball here, Racing playing all the rugby.
PENALTY RACING. Immediately the home-side hit back with another penalty, through the boot of Machenaud again. 14-3 the score.
PENALTY CASTRES. Finally some action from Castres and they earn themselves a penalty. South African scrum-half Rory Kockott makes no mistake. 11-3.
Machenaud misses from 40 metres out, score remains 11-0.
This first half goes from bad to worse for Castres. Fabrice Estebanez chips through for the home side and is tackled off the ball by Karena Wihongi who gets a yellow card for his troubles. Another chance for Machenaud.
