Breaks the 55+ unbeaten home run at Clermont ? P
Major upset here! Castres fully deserved of their victory and now they stand between Toulon and an impressive double. Nobody will be writing them off after this display today!
Shock result !!
Castres lose Claassen and Clermont lose Bardy to the sin bin after a brief altercation near the Castres line. Both sides will finish with 14 men.
Castres begin to ring the changes as they wind up and start to look forward to a final against European champions Toulon,
Try for Castres! Cabannes intercepts what can only be described as a telegraphed pass from the otherwise impressive Delany and runs in a try unopposed for what should guarantee a Castres victory here.
Disaster for Clermont. Kockott hits the post with his penalty effort from fourty metres, two Clermont men collide as they try to gather and knock on. Fofana then picks the ball up from an offside position gifting Kockott with the chance to correct his miss except this time from underneath the posts. He makes no mistake.
Delany answers back instantly for Clermont. A good restart means they gather possession and waste little time earning a penalty.
Much like the end to the first half, Clermont suffer another double blow. Kayser leaves with what looks to be a knee injury while Kockott pushes Castres out to a 15-3 lead.
Clermont have lost their standard
