FT! Stade Francais produced a master class in the second half. One could not attribute it to one player alone, a real collective performance by a group who are even missing a few starting players. Pace power and precision, they ticked all the boxes. Morne Steyn marshalled his back line in attack and took full advantage of his mobile pack. Truth be told Castres may have had a bit more grunt up front, but Stade had the legs and they quite literally ran them off the park. 3 try's to 0 in the second half and the visitors failing to score a single point tells the story of the match. Castres didn't seem up to it tonight. Thanks for following this evenings game with UR, till next time.

Hugo Bonneval runs a marvellous line cutting the Castres defence in two. 3 trys, one more needed for the bonus!

Stade still need two more try's for the bonus. The substitutes are on, can they do it?!

Once again Stade build the phases and then put the ball through the hands for another easy try in the corner.

Magic try by Stade! The ball went the width of the pitch going through at least 5 sets of hands before the left wing dotted the ball down in the corner.
