Sporadic start to the second half. Referee checking with TMO for foul play

Bernard get us underway here. The first score in the second half will be vital

Very stop start First half. A hectic last 3 minutes saw Clermont hold the phases together and barrel over for a converted try. Both teams are defending well but are struggling to hold onto the ball and keep their dicipline.
Stay tuned for coverage of the second half

Clermont with excellent handling and offloads work their way from their own 22 up to Bordeauxs 5m line

Bordeaux penalized at the breakdown and Brock James adds 3 points for Clermont, leveling the scores

Bernard is successful and pushes Bordeaux into a 3 point lead

Another opportunity for Pierre Bernard for 3 points

Both teams trying to play territory but neither can capitalise

Nearing the half-way mark and neither team looking as though they will score. Its looks like this game will come down to dicipline

Scrums are non-existent so far. Each scrum ends up in either a penalty or free kick
