Game is starting to fizzle out in the last few minutes. Both sides seem to have accepted the inevitable result.
Montpellier have given away 14 penalties so far today. This is ultimately proving their downfall.
Kockott's earlier problems with the boot are long forgotten now as he pushes Castres back into a 13 point lead. Castres seem just too strong and are able to up the tempo whenever they need to.
Paillaugue pulls back three points for Montpellier. They are showing they can earn penalties off limited possession, if they could hold on to some more ball they can still get back into contention. 22-12.
Castres are now completely dominant in terms of possession and territory. Starting to make it show on the score board as another Kockott penalty stretches the lead to 13. 22-9.
Castres eventually make the extra man and their overall dominance count with number 8, Claassen crossing for a try. Kockoot converts. Gorgodza returns for Montpellier but the damage may have already been done.
What for?
Hugely physical first-half. Big hits from either side with nothing given up easy. Castres' pack is on top and winning the majority of penalties. Yellow card could have a big baring on the game, Montpellier need to a big start to the second half to make sure Castres don't get a run on them.
Gorgodze is sent to spend 10 minutes in the bin. Kockott compounds matters by striking for 3 points to put Castres back in front.
What's happening in the game who is on top? Can read the penalties on the screen but maybe a little more of what's happening might be good!!!!!
