Try Lyon! After conferring with the video referee Bonrepaux is awarded a try from the bottom of a ruck. Good work from the Lyon pack to get themselves up to and over the Racing try line. Porical misses the conversion. Racing still lead 10-8.

Brugnaut wins a penalty at the scrum fro Racing. Goosen makes no mistake with his effort from distance to extend Racing's lead out to seven points. A well taken opportunity from the outhalf.

Both packs have been struggling with the scrumming conditions this evening. The soft ground is not making it easy for either side and is leading to a lot of resets at scrum time, which is breaking up the flow of the game.

No changes at half-time as Brett gets the game back underway for the second forty!

If Philipe Saint-Andre had any doubts whether Dulin would be fit for the Six-Nations I think he now has his answer. Superb from the small man.

Try Racing! Brice Dulin crosses for the first try of the game. A superb individual try from the full-back sees the Racing 15 run 80 metres to go over untouched. Incredible try. Goosen adds the conversion to put Racing into the lead just before half-time.

Lavanini returns to the field. Lyon were unable to take advantage of the extra man advantage as the score remains 3-0.

Ultimate Rugby Jan 1

Goosen can't make the most of the opportunity to level the scores following some good attacking play from the Racing Metro back line. Lyon hold onto that slender 3-0 lead for now.

The ref pings Nallet for being offside following Laulala's break. Penalty to Racing.

Casey Laulala makes a superb break in midfield, but is chopped down by the Lyon defence eventually. A territorial gain for the visitors as they keep the ball on the attack.
