RUGBY XV – Check the scores of Toulouse-Clermont, Bordeaux Bègles-Montpellier, Lyon-Castres, USAP-La Rochelle, Stade Français-Pau, Toulon-Bayonne and Montauban-Racing 92

Seeing Stade Toulousain and Union Bordeaux Bègles lose at home during this 22nd day of Top 14 was certainly not expected. But facing Clermont and Montpellier, the last two finalists of the championship were outplayed. The Auvergne team won (24-27) at the Stadium and the Hérault team (21-23) at Chaban-Delmas.

La Rochelle and Racing 92 win against lower-ranked teams

By beating USAP (29-31) and Montauban (10-59), Stade Rochelais (9th) and Racing 92 (7th) have positioned themselves for the final phases. Stade Français defeated Pau (34-32) to come within two points of their opponent, second to Stade Toulousain, while Lyon dominated Castres (26-21) to equalize with their opponent of the day, in 10th place. Toulon outclassed Bayonne (52-26) and prepared ideally for their Champions Cup semi-final against Leinster. The team from Var is 5 points behind UBB, in 6th place. Aviron is in 12th place, 15 points behind 6th place.
