And that's the ball game. Huge performance for Bordeaux which is exactly what they needed after their previous two results. Oyonnax will be disappointed with their performance and must look to improving their set - piece. Bordeaux were helped towards their bonus points by the ill discipline of Oyonnax, another thing they must work on, as they scored a try in each of the ten minute periods that Oyonnax were down to 14 men. Next Bordeaux travel to Paris to face Racing Metro and Oyonnax will face Stade Francais at home. Hope you enjoyed our coverage of this game and you will be able to follow both these teams next matches on Ultimate Rugby as well.

Just as Jenneker returns Oyonaax have another player in the sin bin. Bordeaux maul the ball from outisde the 22 to the 5, with momentum on their side Browne pulls down the maul and is sin binned
To have any chance of winning a game you must claim your own lineout balls. Unfortunately Oyonnax don't do this and from the following lineout they are penalised for pulling down the jumper. Bordeaux clear
Oyonnax are not giving up and have made their way into Bordeauxs half and have won a penalty. They kick to the corner in search of a try
And with that it looks like the comeback is over. Brousse kicks through and after nobody claims the ball properly Connor slides over ion the corner. The ref goes to the TMO and the try is given
Any chance of a comeback has just becomemuch harder for Oyonnax as Jenneker is rightly sin binned for a late tackle
It has been all Oyonnax so far this half and finally they make their possession count as Barnard slots over a penalty
