The loser of this match knew his fate for the final tournament would be sealed. It is therefore Lyon, beaten 46-27 Friday by the Stade Français, which is disqualified.
The Parisians, domineering from start to finish, imposed themselves with the manner, and connects a fifth consecutive success. Conquerors, they quickly led to the score and we managed to manage their lead to continue believing in their dream of qualifying.
Everything still remains to be done
Stefanai Naivalu was the great architect of this victory by scoring two tries (18th, 72nd) well helped by his teammates Telusa Veainu (48th) and James Hall (54th) also scorers. The proof of this success found in order to reach the final phase for the first time since their title in 2015.
Lyon on the other hand did not make the weight. Too undisciplined with 11 penalties conceded, the Lyonnais were not helped by Jean-Marc Doussain with little success in shooting (3 misses including a post), nor by the exits of Izack Rodda (17th) and Xavier Mignot (19th) .
