Fickou cannot be stopped today. He makes a fool of the Stade defence again but his chip lands just outside the deal ball area. Medard was very close to touching down. Toulouse look like the could concede at any moment but also that they could score out of nothing. A good game here.

Dupuy shows he is human after all. His long range penalty lands just short.

Toulouse almost answer back immediately. Their pack drive incessantly at the Stade line but in typical Top 14 fashion they try to settle for a drop goal and Poitrenaud shanks it wide.

Another try for Stade, what a start we've had here. From a scrum on the Toulouse 22, once again Dupuy attacks the gainline with a clever diagonal run that pulls in two defenders. Plisson appears on his shoulder to receive the offload and touch down. 17-5 Stade and Toulouse look vulnerable.

What a response by Mcalister! Fickou once again makes good yards and beats a couple of Stade defender to take the ball near the line. Mcalister picks a great line of the ruck and thunders over. Great response by the New Zealander after being at fault for the Stade try.

Try for Stade. Plisson takes the ball into contact from the lineout and from the next ruck Dupuy spots a gap and sprints between two defenders to touch down under the posts. Very poor defence from Mcalister who let Dupuy glide past him far too easily. Dupuy slots the conversion and has all of his side's points so far.

Stade win a penalty at the scrum and Plisson puts them down near the Toulouse 22.

Toulouse once again put with on the ball with Hosea Gear and Johnston showing good skills but a knock on turns the ball over. Toulouse deserve more from their opening play.

A great kick by Dupuy clears the bar with ease and his side move into a 3-0 lead.

Census Johnston gets penalised for holding on and Julien Dupuy will attempt a very long penalty.
