A strong finish by Castres earns them a 26-16 home win over Clermont. The sides were locked up at 10-10 at halftime as each kicked two successful second half penalties to see the score all square at 16-16 with 15 minutes to play. However, Castres would finish the stronger of the two sides as they crossed for their second try to give themselves a seven point lead. Soon after a drop goal made it a ten point ball game and that is how things ended as Castres ground out the remaining minutes to seal the victory.
