The huge blow: the feat of Castres at the Michelin
That masterful feat of Castres Olympique on the lawn of the Michelin. The CO won strong against Clermont (30-34). A prestigious success that the Tarnais snatched at the very end of the game (76 ′), thanks to a test from the third row Kevin Kornath. The other Castres test markers were Rory Kockott and Adrea Cocagi, during the first act.
This performance is all the greater as theASM had never lost his first match of the season at home and that it is carried out with a direct competitor in the top 6. With two successes during the first two days, the Castres are still surfing on their crazy dynamic from the end of last season and prove that they will still be formidable this season.

The performance of the day: Pau courage against Lyon
Reduced to 14 from 25e minute of play after the red card inflicted on the Fijian flanker Leak Back pain, the Section Paloise was heroic to get rid of the clutches of LOU (21-17). Driven by their Hamlet audience, the Béarnais, united and full of control, achieved an authentic feat by playing for almost an hour outnumbered.
Faced with messy and unruly Lyonnais, the gang Sébastien Piqueronies was able to stand up at the end of the match to obtain a success that truly launches their season, after their inaugural setback at Castres. A service on which Pau can resolutely build.
The Pau showed against Lyon what they never could show last year: strength, coolness after the red card in the 1st period and a certain control over the 2nd MT. It’s only the 2nd day but they can already build on this match #SPLOU

The box: Montpellier unfolds against Brive
Montpellier made a successful debut at GGL Stadium by making short work of Brive (39-17), during the 2e Top 14 day. the MHR scored six tries by Gela Aprasidze, Geoffrey Doumayrou, Arthur Vincent, Thomas Darmon and a hooker double Jeremiah Maurouard.
Other strongmen of the Cists include the bulk of the English rookie Zach Mercer. Omnipresent, the ex-player of Bath constantly put his team forward. A real good pick for the people of Hérault.
The player: Tristan Tedder (Perpignan)
Usap opener Tristan Tedder made a XXL service, this Saturday September 11, during the victory of the Catalans against Biarritz (33-20). Author of the second try of the Sang et Or at the start of the second period, the former player of the Toulouse stadium, loaned last year to Béziers (Pro D2), energized the Perpignan game and was in all the right moves, also addressing a decisive pass for Jean-Bernard Pujol. Author of a double, the Usap winger was also one of the great architects of the first Catalan success of the season.
