Racing go straight up the field and earn a penalty at the break down straight in front of the posts. Easy chance for Sexton.

PENALTY CLERMONT. No mistake from Parra and it's 6-3.

Penalty to Clermont just on the 22 and should be an easy one for Parra.

Brock James almost puts Marc Andreu in for a try with a delicate kick but the bounce just beats him.

Wonderful attack from Racing as Sexton chips from his own 22 and Casey Laulala before breaking downfield. Eventually a penalty is conceded by Racing.

Second half is on!

Que aburrido

Just as Clermont put some phases together a big hit comes in and they spill the ball. Racing have possession and should see out the half.

The play has started to go scrappy as we approach the end of the opening period.

PENALTY RACING. A confident strike as the former Leinster man scores from about 10 metres in from the sideline and on the 22. 3-3
