A half that only came alive late on after the first points of the game were scored after 27 minutes. Bordeaux have done the bulk of the attacking and have made the home side work hard on defense. Credit to Grenoble for a solid defense which has restricted the visitors from scoring for the majority of the first half. Grenoble struggled in the scrum during the first half and will have to get that set piece working if they wish to avoid being punished even more.
