00:00Leading Clermont by 24 points away those three tries to one and I think that's
00:08pretty much a fair reflection of the way the first half has been just here we
00:17will hear from someone at halftime BarnabĂŠ Massa the man with the bandage
00:24making his way off but Stanford will say we'll be pleased enough with the way the
00:31first half has gone yes they'll be very satisfied 24-8 lead and and the backs have
00:37played it well Leo Barry has been one of the best players certainly the last few
00:42few rounds and and this season it's his ninth try he's scored he was so
00:47impressive last week and again he's there he's he's filling in the hole when
00:51Kerbalo is unavailable Barry is in there driving them forward and everyone seems
00:56to be wanting to move in the same direction it's not always something you
01:00can say about a Stade Francais team they occasionally do appear disjointed but
01:04these last few weeks looking very good we're underway again Harry Plummer gets
01:09things rolling in the second half Clermont immediately on the attack Marcus
01:14Kramer the former Stade Francais player with the collect lays it back
01:25so bringing them back for the knock-on and they missed a little opportunity there Clermont they did
01:33but they'll be happy to get the ball back here they've got a scrum now on the 22
01:36they'll really want to have a good solid scrum and have good clean ball and then
01:42they can really impose their play on to Stade Francais in their 22
01:48they have the put-in and they are with 15 players on the field back to their full quota
01:59just before half-time so they are in a position to attack to use space and this
02:09looks good and clean Peter Gasakulu at the back well it's come out and quite messy in
02:16the end just delaying it slightly
02:29I think Stade Francais is slightly fortunate there not to give away a penalty to be honest
02:33Clermont will be looking to really put the pressure on really squeeze them and get a good
02:37drive on the on the scrum here the referee is just having a word with I think one of the
02:41the coaches just tend to calm down a bit French rugby coach needing to calm down a bit
02:50French rugby coach needing to calm down a bit there's a first Christophe Urias looking very calm
02:54with his gum on the touchline he's the Clermont head coach of course Clermont with the put-in
03:01Baptiste Jeunot once again the the scrummage not working
03:10Kevin Braly is the referee just coming in doing a little bit of coaching
03:16and the front rows have to settle down once again
03:24as we were saying at half-time just at the end of half-time there Clermont will be happy with
03:28the
03:29start the second half they've got the ball in the prison 22 they need to come away with points there
03:35that's a long injury list for Clermont Regis Montagne of course promptly played
03:41saw him during the six nations one of the many unavailable but well that is the way for all teams
03:49in the top 14 indeed any league you want to play and now Derek Carrere takes the ball on into
03:55the
03:56Stade Francais 22 this is good from the yellow shirts of Clermont looking to open up the gaps
04:03Newsome takes the ball in Jeunot feeding set Emery lending her hand
04:11it's back for Jeunot again so Akula takes it in this time
04:17Jeunot has a quick look to see if there's a gap
04:20Feet outside him lower lower
04:28Kramer takes it in oh Kramer making yards there
04:37Clermont driving towards the line there being patient at the moment we were criticizing him a little bit in the
04:43first half for not showing the patience but this time prepared to work the phases no one
04:49out wide he's got to bring it straight set it up once more Jono feeds wide this
04:56time this time they do get a few yards closing in on that line this time Rob
05:04Simmons takes it in Jono again just has a half look for the gap oh this is nicely
05:11done can they work the space they have and that's gonna be a second try and it's
05:16Leon Derry Carrer who is over for the try his second of the season and that another
05:23beautifully worked try from Clermont well played Clermont as we're saying they had
05:30that scrum they went in too early the Stafford says there's a free kick for
05:34Clermont and they just played their phases they went through Luolo has made
05:38some good dents into the Stafford say defense he's got some good ground lovely
05:42pass from Luolo there little basketball pass over the top into the corner it's
05:47Derry Carrera well played from Clermont there
05:50well that's what the game needed it's what Clermont needed as well that's right
05:56if they can get the conversion brings it back to just nine points it's still two
06:03scores but it's a lot better than it was and Derry Carrera's deserved that as well
06:09because he's had a very strong first half he was making things happen for them in
06:14the first half and this time gets the try and Harry Plummer gets the conversion so
06:22now it is just a nine-point gap with Stade Francais leading by 24 points to 15
06:30really good start second half there for Clermont exactly what they needed to get
06:34back into this game to make this game tighter then give them a chance to win
06:39the game as well absolutely
06:48Barry collects looks for the the quick restart but in the end decides to wait for
06:54the big boys to arrive the good kick out there really good exit right on the
06:58halfway line
07:00someone will now there's a line out to Stade Francais
07:03oh a little scuffle
07:06not sure what sparked that
07:18didn't look too serious
07:19the referee stopping time not quite sure what for
07:34well he's now calling over Romain Briat the Stade Francais captain
07:40who is politely ignoring him here he goes
07:53so Briat and uh on team Emily being given the little lecture by Kevin
08:01Borelli little gallic shrug of the shoulders there from Briat is you know it was nothing
08:09in Gov um and it well it wasn't really very much anyway on with the game Stade Francais taking it
08:18in
08:26Kerbalo having to dig that one out and now going the aerial route
08:31evading the charge down of Emery but it's straight into touch that's great play for Emery there just so
08:37he can see he's got his eyes on Kerbalo he wants to really charge down put pressure on his right
08:42foot
08:43and he put so much pressure on him that Kerbalo had to kick it high and he slightly deviated went
08:48into straight to touch
08:50yep
08:52well played Emery
08:55so Claremont
08:57well they've got the line out
08:59Barnaby Massa now with his uh head guard on having sustained that injury in the first half goes to the
09:05front
09:06quick ball again from uh Claremont looking to move oh that's gone uh gone a bit wrong there but
09:12uh they have tidied it up they've done well to uh secure the ball
09:18and they must come again
09:20oh Dalgi Dalgi through the gap he is taken down but he's made good progress Jono feeds
09:29there's some nice hands there Kramer turning but i think
09:32has that been ripped away from Kramer he's holding on to it
09:36and he's holding on to it when he shouldn't have been
09:39good important steel there very important steel
09:42because uh they look to be in trouble there they're on the back foot they
09:45Claremont getting good ground they're hitting the gaps they're hitting it with pace as well
09:51yeah Kramer is uh a difficult man to rip the ball off and the best of times but uh that
09:56time he was on
09:56on his back and uh guilty good work from Moses
10:01Alo Emile
10:07now this fella Bautista Dalgi he's this kind of player isn't he he's he always backs himself to be able
10:13to find a gap
10:16which perhaps can be infuriating at times when you're on his side and you think there really
10:21isn't anywhere to go but uh he does create space
10:26an opportunity but it's with Stade Francais at the moment the pink shirts are rolling forward and
10:32and that is uh Erigoyen who's just come on wearing number 19 Matthew Erigoyen
10:42he has the ball now with Briat
10:49Nicotero takes it on
10:54and Kerbalo
10:59the Claremont defense up quickly not letting them break through at the moment Carbonell
11:05sees a gap but he's uh tossed to the floor
11:10taken on it's good work by the Parisians they are making a little bit of ground
11:13that's a very uh very flat slightly forward pass
11:21so that lets Claremont off the hook
11:24yeah so Stephon saved there they're just trying to power it through really uh
11:29the Carbonell just saw a little gap maybe but quickly got closed
11:35and uh I think Kerbalo perhaps just brushing it a bit too much maybe it's all the space but unless
11:41we have the time
11:46yeah Morgan para having words from the touchline
11:51quite a handy scrum half in his time
11:53of course there's another one Rory Cockott
11:59on the right-hand side of your screen who uh spent most of his career with cast
12:05but uh Perry Freshwater on the left-hand side
12:08and Perry Freshwater on the left-hand side yes exactly but he wasn't he wasn't a scrum half
12:12was he Perry bless him I'm sure he would have fancied it and in his dreams he might have
12:17thrown a few decent passes
12:23another messy scrummage and this time the uh oh and Claremont moving it quickly with
12:29Jono Newsome is uh well tackled by Kerbalo
12:37puts the brakes on that move really
12:41Jono with the left foot over the top collected by Carbonell he drills it back down into the 22
12:52Claremont from deep
12:56and that's well played super super work
13:01Jono what can he do with it feeds inside to uh Sawakula
13:14oh looking for that space lower lower not quite able to get away
13:21Darry Carrera is uh taken by a big hit
13:28Claremont playing playing well this second half
13:31they've got much more rhythm and much more patience
13:35looking to bill as Massa
13:39goes for route one this time lower lower pops it back but Cremo with the knock on
13:46and that's unfortunate it is yeah it is unfortunate it had some good play again Claremont they're looking
13:52more and more confident with their hands on the ball to be honest and they gave them some good phase
13:56play together before he just forced the pass sometimes when you force the pass it's 50 50 you're
14:02probably best off keeping it going to ground and recycling
14:07yeah there was some some good work and as you mentioned earlier lower lower has come more and more into
14:12this game yeah but that time the pass it was as you say a little bit of a hasty offload
14:17and
14:17Cremo was too close and uh simply wasn't ready for it that's right
14:26so a little pause in play we're saying that Stafford say we're a 6-2 split on the bench
14:33and that Claremont are 5-3 but remember there's George Moella on the bench as well he's like a
14:38also like a sixth forward in a way isn't he so he'll be interesting when he comes on yeah that's
14:44very true
14:49the Georgie Melikidja there Georgian prop he's had a remarkable season Melikidja there's only his
14:58ninth start he's actually featured in 19 games now but he's he's got six tries to his name already this
15:03season Melikidja he's a a bit of a demon close to the line none of them great sprints to the
15:10line
15:11he's not a welsh prop forward no he's no carrĂŠ
15:17but uh five points is five points isn't it
15:23now Claremont want to put pressure on this scrub they want to try and get penalty off this scrub if
15:27they can in front of the post but it's gonna be difficult obviously it's definitely a ball here
15:35I've had a little bit of a delay but now the ball is in the front rows go down once
15:39again
15:40it's been pretty ugly the uh scrummaging in this game
15:44stab francais get it away though hoof the ball upfield
15:51and it's hoofed straight back at them
15:55Barry
15:59fires it into touch
16:05they'll be happy to have the ball here i think and again because they're getting more and more into
16:09the game of their phase play they'll be happy to have the ball even if they're only in their own
16:13half i think they'll either try and get a more game to get penalty or just try to go through
16:17their phases
16:18try and get some make some inroads into the staff want to say half
16:24yeah sports psychology is an interesting thing
16:28and it may be that the start from say players feel that they should be winning this quite comfortably but
16:32in fact they are well they're still two scores ahead
16:36but only just
16:38Claremont playing well putting pressure on they're building we haven't seen a lot of constructive play
16:45from staff from say in this half it's Claremont playing most of it all that's high that
16:51that is going to be a card for sure we're going to come back to that because the moment Claremont
16:56are on the charge
17:01and this is good quick ball
17:04on the crowd braying not quite sure why because i think they're going to
17:10have no argument with this decision
17:16it's certainly a high tackle
17:30no he's not having another look is he
17:36well fair enough
17:41we see so many of those
17:44are an automatic yellow card but the TMO might still come in there you never know
17:49and just address his attention to the tackle
17:56well the crowd really giving uh giving him the burden i don't know if they've picked up on something
18:01earlier that uh i didn't or that we didn't but at the moment it's going to be Harry Plummer
18:08to go for the uh three points which would bring this back to a one
18:13score game and then the pressure will be on the Parisians
18:23Plummer teeing it up
18:33and he's dropped it just wide so it remains nine points 24 points to 15
18:45and i think Plummer might be a bit disappointed with that one that was within his range
18:49it was very much so i think he just got underneath it too much
18:54and now we see the subs coming on
19:02Clermont will be heartened still they'll still i mean there's a good strike off the line out they
19:06did a peel off they hit through the middle there they got a penalty they got another penalty
19:10they should have made the most of it but unfortunately missed the penalty kick
19:16i'll stand for on say
19:19get the ball away emery collects and does well there lays the ball back cleanly for juno
19:27Clermont have done most of the creative made most of the creative work
19:30in this second half a little dink over the top to chase onto it's well taken
19:41and that looks like Thibault Motassi now at scrum half
19:47for Stade Francais replacing Tawera Kerbalo there he is wearing number 21 the 21 year old
19:57lofts the high ball not back and that's well taken up and there was Motassi down the line from Ward
20:07oh the charge down and this is going to cost Clermont
20:11and there is the try well it's a little bit against the runner play
20:18and Jeremy Ward well we were talking before the game about how important he has been
20:23for Stade Francais he is through for his seventh try of the season and that is a real kick in
20:30the
20:30pants but Clermont yeah that really is it's good pressure from Ward that's really he's very good at the
20:36work off the ball his his efforts he makes and obviously little grubber through again he chased hard
20:43and uh charged down the kick so that is well played and didn't have to do much for it so
20:48Clermont will be
20:49kicking themselves definitely because they've been dominating the second half so far after 16 minutes
20:53they really should have come away some more points as it is they conceded probably seven there we go
20:58they have it's 31 points to 15 and that must be sickening for them they worked so well in the
21:10second
21:10half they created the opportunities but again it was sharp work by Motassi that he's only just come on
21:16the uh replacement scrum half very quick and as you say Jeremy Ward using his brain using his vision
21:23and the former shark touching down
21:28time's stopped now more replacements i think
21:35looks like a front row yeah absolutely so Matteo Frisach Etienne Forcard and Jurgi
21:43are on in the front row for Clermont
21:53well clung on by Carbonell
21:58now i wonder now whether that will settle start from say whether we'll see them reverting to the
22:03kind of play they showed in the first half neatly done by uh Barry he's off oh super stuff held
22:11up though
22:11it's still there as uh Motassi takes it on the forwards collect Motassi again busy busy they've got a little
22:22overlap Briatt oh he doesn't uh get a terribly good pass in there there's four card who secures it for
22:30Clermont
22:31and they've got a bit of work to do still to clear this
22:37it's been told to get on with it
22:42sends it high
22:45and Barry again
22:48launching the high bomb really putting pressure on the Clermont defense this time they deal with it rather
22:54better spreading the ball wider looking for a gap is uh Delghi running into a couple of brick walls there
23:03but does well with the Argentinian
23:09set takes it in this time
23:24more Tassi
23:27a little knock on though
23:34so Clermont so first 16 minutes second half they really did well they came back into the game
23:39they scored first second half putting pressure on the Staffrancais and uh so just out nothing really
23:45Staffrancais have come back with a score but Clermont mustn't panic they've still got time they've got
23:50another 20 minutes to get back into this game they can't stop throwing those impossible passes
23:57really got to stick to what they were doing so well 16 minutes or so
24:02yeah and of course there's also there's the there's the other prize i suppose in that
24:06there is always the bonus point factor as well and all points are important at this uh at this end
24:13well not even just at this end we were saying with the so many clubs the top 12 all with
24:21a chance of
24:21making the uh the playoffs every point vital Sekou Makalu is on there is uh a man with real power
24:32coming on but it's Jono breaking off the back Darry Carrière taking it in
24:41and Clermont again looking to move the ball quickly a little untidy and Newsome has it
24:52Kremer takes it on
24:57Jono combining with Muirua who's just come on wearing the number 19
25:05there is the uh one of the other Georgian props Jmaneshvili
25:14oh neatly done by Barre looking for space oh well he's uh tossed that one a little bit of a
25:21hospital pass there uh inside after that good work initially by Barre but uh i'm not sure about that
25:28pass ran himself into a bit of trouble
25:38and good work by Etienne Fourcard actually chasing him down
25:43there is Moala
25:46he'll take it up without a doubt he'll run it hard right through the middle and try and smash people
25:51out
25:51the way to get over the game line Clermont mustn't go away from what they've been doing up until now
25:56seriously they've been they're in the game in a way but they're not they've got to keep going
26:01what they've been doing for the last few minutes and from their point of view it will come well there
26:07is Moala getting stuck in straight away there is still pace there is still uh real ambition in what
26:15Clermont are trying to do they're into the 22 now and as you say we we still have the best
26:23part of 20
26:23minutes remaining in the game so a score now and they're they're back in it
26:29Emery looking for a gap he's got support from uh Delghi
26:34as Jono digging out Kramer takes it on not quite up to the 22 yet
26:41the 22 yet said oh they are now nicely done well that was uh knocked forward but they're coming back
26:50for a penalty i think
26:54an offside
26:57they're going to kick for touch we'll take three points
27:01where they are you think they kick for touch here
27:06yeah i think uh i think so it's down there it's it's close to the touch line isn't it
27:11it is oh well it's reasonably close so they really need to score here now
27:15they do they're probably five meters out are they we'll see but they really need to
27:20get their act together and really get a good move off this line out
27:24and try and get over that line with a try if they want to stay in this game
27:30and the uh replacements have injected a little bit more pace again they've managed to maintain a good
27:36a good pace in this second half and now it is up to four card to find his man he
27:43does
27:44now off the training ground here it is the ball with etienne for a card around the blind side he
27:50goes
27:50and over for the try and clemore are back in it
27:58car just had his head up the knee you could see he's looking over the top of the mall there
28:02he
28:02could see there's no one there he darted for the corner and scored it was good well worked try
28:07be difficult conversion now but again now the clemore players used to get together back in their
28:12half he'd have a quick chat about what they're going to do next and how they're going to get back
28:15into the staff francais half and what they need to do when they get there they need to have a
28:19breath
28:20deep breath together huddle up together and really connect as a team to make sure they get back into
28:26staff francais half after this conversion it was it was real textbook training ground maneuver that
28:33well done by etienne for card his third try of the season and harry plummer oh again he's just not
28:40quite got his uh compass today that one just sliding right of the posts
28:49there you see just right it was a well worked try good more good pressure again from clemore these
28:56need a good exit now put pressure back on staff francais they cannot spend time in their 22 now
29:02that's three kicks that plumber has missed now seven points that he's left out there which of course
29:09at those on 31 27 it's a different game
29:13it is 31 points to 20 start francais leading clermont
29:2015 minutes or so remaining in the game
29:30glermont clearing upfield barry oh he's launching yet another attack oh beautifully done out the back of
29:38the hand
29:40quick pass on from makalu jeremy ward looking for a way through
29:48motassi feeding nicotera throws himself into that yellow defense
29:58stand francais will be uh they won't mind too much just to see the clock ticking over
30:05i want to obviously get the score but uh that one's gone straight out so leo barry is human he's
30:12made a
30:12mistake there they have time clermont 15 minutes to go they still have time they've got to be patient
30:20again they can't panic they can't rush things through they stick to their plan their game plan
30:27but they need to remain focused they cannot afford to give away another score now
30:34we saw that try from ward a little earlier nothing really came out of nothing it came
30:41against the run of play it was lapses in concentration from clermont
30:52this gap again lined out
30:56four card is the uh thrower referee long discussion again the uh the clock ticking away
31:13uh stuff from say home crowd getting a little bit noisy that's untidy very untidy from the parisians
31:21i just gone off the boil in the second half they look very on it first half
31:30have scored that try of course from ward but apart from that they haven't showed a lot in the second
31:35half
31:35and that is uh unfortunate boot was up jaron going up for the ball has caught second makalu
31:45in the mouth and that is uh painful hopefully they're both all right
31:58the referee is going to have a look at this
32:05it's the foot up as you say julian castanier is the uh
32:14castanier is the uh video ref who's having another look well i thought it caught him in the mouth but
32:22oh it caught him in the uh side of the neck
32:27with studs that is gonna hurt it was right in the uh collarbone almost isn't that yeah luckily it
32:34wasn't in the face because it could be where else
32:45yeah it looks bad
32:48that's
32:51well the foot is up high there's no argument with that it is dangerous we're going to go yellow or
32:57red
32:58we have had a couple of oranges this season he may be
33:03oranged which would be a 20 minute red effectively
33:10which is effectively a red card anyway
33:16wow wow just a yellow card
33:26so he's a lucky man
33:29if that had been an inch or two the other way if there had been any
33:35facial contact at all that would have been red i think it would have been red and also it could
33:39have been very nasty so yes it would absolutely so a second yellow card for clement very silly from
33:48uh clement's point of view because now suddenly staff want to say
33:5213 minutes ago there are four tries to three up they're going to try and want to score here and
33:56then try and fight for the bonus point in france and top 14 there's always three tries more
34:01than your opponent as it stands at four three at the moment they want to score another two
34:09so michaud the 18 year old giant is on for thomas set and luca zamora 21 years old is on
34:21for juno
34:24these young players coming through it's always good to see young players coming on
34:28it's playing at club level it's remarkable the way they come through start from say with the line
34:34out it's well taken by selzo wearing 18 another young player who has come on where is it it's messy
34:46it's
34:46in a heap at the moment the ball is in there somewhere tell me if you see it won't you
34:52tom there it is
35:05still the forwards taking it in makalu lending a hand there he looks to be okay after that boot in
35:10the
35:10shoulder paul allo emil is on wearing 23
35:18feeding wide veeley brings it back inside veeley of course a former clermont player
35:27players always like scoring against their old teams
35:32motassi doing the work looking sniping around the edge he's an awkward
35:38young player he's a france under 20s scrum half
35:46and the parisians setting up shop in the 22 they are closing on the line it's it's got a sense
35:53of
35:53inevitability at the moment they have the one-man advantage there is going to be a little bit of extra
35:59space if they can suck in one or two defenders at the moment clermont not wanting to over commit
36:09carbonel comes back in pops it back nicely done by ward now they're three on two are they
36:16are they are they are they are they are they are they are they are they are they are they
36:19are they are they are they are they are they are they are they are they are they are they

36:36are they are they are they are they are they are they are they are they are they are they
36:44are
36:44down to 14 men in their 22 against Staffron say who wasn't pretty wasn't
36:50particularly no fancy about it just one pass rugby hitting it up trying to bash
36:56through getting the advantage line but it's efficient they've got some go
37:00forward and suddenly they're burst through the two tackles there the
37:04scores under the pace well it's it's hard work defending yeah it's very hard
37:10work and they have just in this last period they've had to do fair amount of
37:15it covering across and Staffron say were deliberately hitting weren't they they
37:20were just punching for that space the kick goes through Carbonell adds the two
37:27points 38 points to 20. 10 minutes to go yeah there you go there's a missed tackle
37:36there just power couldn't get quite good shoulders on couldn't quite get the grip
37:41on to bring him down try to go short and missed out on that as well
37:47little knock on
37:50Charles Lalois who is wearing number 22 he is 22 years old there you go
37:58what does he 21 21 years old there's a lot of youth on the field today as you say
38:04always good to see always exciting to see the next crop coming through
38:10so here we go nine minutes to go five tries to three up Staffron say would now be looking to
38:16push for that extra try to get the bonus point
38:20yes absolutely the five points a five-point win would put them level with Poe and Bordeaux-Bergler
38:32on 59 points
38:36which is a pretty handy position to be in when you're vying to be up in the top two
38:41of course Toulouse are away and over the mountain at the moment that's right when you
38:45compare Staffron say from last season where they finished 12th in the season to this season it's
38:50almost like a different team with the same players almost it shows the good work with
38:55with his team with his management well already their 54 points going into this match was already
39:0118 more than they had at the same time last season
39:06as you say they will now be squeezing and looking and they've won the penalty in that scrummage
39:16and with five minutes still with Claremont down to 14 for the next five minutes they will be looking to
39:24take advantage of that
39:26really press home that one man advantage exactly what they wanted Staffron say there get the penalty off the scrum
39:34they're going to now kick for touch here we go
39:37that was not the best kick from Carbonell but they've got territory and they've got the ball
40:00and they've got the ball and they've got the ball and they've got the ball and they've got the ball
40:02and they've got the ball and they've got the ball and they've got the ball and they've got the ball
40:02and they've got the ball and they've got the ball and they've got the ball and they've got the ball
40:02and they've got the ball and they've got the ball and they've got the ball and they've got the ball
40:02and they've got the ball and they've got the ball and they've got the ball and they've got the ball
40:02and they've got the ball and they've got the ball and they've got the ball and they've got the ball
40:02and they've got the ball and they've got the ball and they've got the ball and they've got the ball
40:03and they've got the ball and they've got the ball and they've got the ball and they've got the ball
40:03and they've got the ball and they've got the ball and they've got the ball and they've got the ball
40:07and they've got the
40:11time for them to turn this round or at least make a dent remember they get a
40:15bonus point I think it's if they're five points adrift so if they can get up to
40:2033 they've got a chance but Carbonell collects but away goes Laloa
40:30Laloa feeds it back in Mortazia oh there goes Makalu that's what he loves to do
40:39Sekou Makalu bursting through and he will love that it's his first try of the
40:45season he loves scoring tries to Sekou Makalu and that is game over it is game
40:51over it looks as though Staffan Sagan will win the bonus point there as well now
40:55they've got their sixth try they lost the line-out initially they lost line-up but
41:00after the high kick Louis Carbonell gathers this cross kick sorry gathers it well
41:05offload in the tackle good go through yeah it's good work by Laloa isn't it
41:11right and then Makalu hits that gap perfectly look at that great line from
41:16Makalu under the post nice dive he does enjoy that yeah some of those sometimes
41:25you actually injure yourself I have the rivers like I have wondered why but never
41:32mind Carbonell bangs it through perfect return from him seven out of seven and
41:39staff from say now lead Clermont by 45 points to 20 they have the bonus point in
41:47their pocket I have no doubt they'll be looking for another one just to seal that
41:53bonus point because they've still got two and a half minutes up against 14 men
41:57Clermont are really on the back foot they're backpedalling at the moment this
42:03game has rushed away from them in these last few minutes moments in this second
42:10half when they look the better team but Carbonell finds the gap and he's got the
42:14space outside oh this is gonna be another try for Stade Francais and it's
42:20Daku Wanger going over in the corner his seventh try of the season and Stade
42:27Francais are running away with this now that bonus point you would think now
42:33absolutely secured it's gonna be a five pointer for the home side that's right
42:39lovely play from Louis Carbonell he took the ball you can see here from the just
42:44around the back he runs around in and out and team Emery's had a really good
42:48game on team Emery but fortunately he's just beaten there for pace out to
42:52Audi and then two on one Daku Waker in the corner
42:58well played Louis Carbonell he's had a good game hasn't he Carbonell today he
43:02really has and that's a great finish I think they're enjoying themselves now
43:11Stade Francais they've been made to work in this game it hasn't the scoreboard
43:15makes it look like a romp it does 50 points to 20 yeah it does come on
43:21seriously they've been in the game up until probably five six minutes ago they're
43:25still in the game well I've only run away from them until that yellow card yeah which
43:29came in the 67th minute it was 31 20 at that point there were nine points adrift
43:34they were looking good to come back since then three converted tries Carbonell missing
43:44sorry yes Carbonell missing the conversion that time
43:53it remains 50 20 not a bad scoreline though that's good you can see that
43:59they're obviously very happy stuff I'll say no one the game all they got to do
44:02now is just be concerned about keeping hold of that bonus point
44:05can't allow Clermont there to score two tries the last five minutes be criminal yes
44:12their next game is next Sunday when they are at home against the Dragons in the Challenge Cup
44:20a week off for Clermont and then when the top 14 resumes in three weeks time isn't it yes we've
44:31got two
44:31weeks of European action start from say we'll be playing interesting but they're
44:37away they haven't finished this evening they've got more work to do more tries
44:40to score or have they it's with not a see Clermont must just be wishing the final
44:48whistle would come yeah there's space it's opening up there two men overlap oh it's
44:54going to be another try but don't go wearing out oh it's a route
45:00it's second try the floodgates have opened right at the end there literally the
45:05love they've had last 10 minutes be a nightmare for Clermont here that yellow
45:09card has cost them so dearly they'll be kicking themselves
45:13Clermont will with this they're in the game they're in the game I mean it wasn't
45:20close necessarily but they had the opportunities they had their spells as it
45:24is they've left let the floodgates open and definitely run away with it in the end
45:28so clinical when they get it working and and ticking over of course they do have
45:33the one-man advantage and although in fact are I've got that wrong the Clermont back up to full
45:40quota so they didn't but at this stage it doesn't matter I think Clermont are out on
45:46their feet and if it was a boxing match he'd have stopped it a little while ago I think
45:5155 points to 20 the conversion from Carbonell is good 57 points to 20 and there's still a minute and
46:01a
46:01half to go yeah that's right from a Stafford and say point of view the supporters would be over the
46:08moon
46:08they they would have getting this game to have a five-point win they'd be dreaming of it
46:13as it is it's worked out really quite well for them very well for them even
46:18well Barry I wonder if he just reckons they they probably had enough now because he's
46:22been hoofed that away into touch no attempt to run it straight back at Clermont as he has been
46:28so Clermont will have the uh the line out throw with one minute remaining in the match
46:37eight tries to three and we've had four in the last ten minutes yeah there's a lot well
46:49they're cup over runners at the moment what a clue or nothing I was gonna say what have they got
46:55left
46:55they've got a another turnover Carbonell getting the backs moving once more Daku Wanger is he on for a
47:03very quick hat trick Barry brings it back in field it's uh it's the forwards taking it on
47:11quick hands again oh beautifully done oh it's terrific stuff McAloo
47:15he's got the man outside it's Laloa stepping back inside and there's another try
47:21oh my word it's uh Charles Laloa who goes through his first try of the season
47:30and this is a surfeit
47:33what a well-worked try 62 20. it's a really well-worked try for me Stephon I'd say they're
47:40playing with confidence now suddenly they're brewing with confidence and happiness and playing with the
47:47ball off the ball the passing the offloads the steps the gaps the pace they put into it well this
47:54is uh it's it's a little bit painful now you feel a little bit sorry for Clermont because they've
48:00competed well but it's they've been blown apart in this last 10 minutes five tries in the last
48:0710 minutes or so 10 12 minutes absolute route 62 points to 20 the conversion still to come this will
48:17be
48:17the last kick of the game Carbonell has it he's only missed one all evening that one is between the
48:26middle that is game over what a victory for Stade Francais they've beaten Clermont by 64 points to 20.
48:34it's a five-point win for the Parisians and they go level with Poe and Bordeaux-Bergler
48:43what a remarkable end to the game it wasn't four or five tries the last 10 minutes catch your breath
48:50yeah
48:51but it all stemmed from that silly kick in the chest from Joyce Geraint in the high
