Full time at the Stade Yves du Manoir with the home side winning 27-8. After an even enough first half Racing came out firing in the second and although it took them a further 20 minutes, Racing scored 2 tries in a matter of minutes to put the game out of La Rochelles reach. However a late break away try by Barraque took the bonus point away from Racing. Thank you for following this game on UR and I hope you enjoyed our coverage
