Half time! We've reached halfway here at the Stade Marcel Michelin and it's the home side that lead by 11-3. A well worked team try by Clermont, scored by Jean-Marcellin Buttin has been the big difference of the first half. Brive have struggled at the scrum so far in this half, and if this continues there could possibly be another yellow card shown. This is still anyone's game as we enter the second half and with Brive scoring on the stroke of half time, they will come out ready to attempt the comeback in the next 40 minutes of play. Live updates of the second half to follow.

Clermont penalised and fail to retreat the 10 metres, Germain goes for the posts again from a similar position.

Yet again, penalty to Clermont from the set piece. This is a serious problem for Brive, with another half still to play.

Clermont put in to the scrum just inside their 22.

@ConallT Damien Jourdain was brought on to replace Kevin Buys while he was in the sin bin.

Buys makes his way back onto the field. As the front row is back, Murphy makes his way back on in place of Jourdain.

TRY! Clermont go over for their first try of the game. Parra picks from the ruck and offloads to the full back Buttin and he crosses over to extend the lead to 11-0. Lopez misses the conversion.

Great play by Jonathan Davies to break the first tackle and offload the ball. Clermont force their way up to the 5 metre line, with a penalty advantage.

Scrum replacement ?

Very scrappy maul by Brive, but Neveu manages to offload the ball before they lost it.
