Germains kick comes off the post and Namy is somehow first to it but Iribaren makes a vital tackle

Again a scrum equals a penalty for Brive

Mistake from debutant Lucas whos kick off goes straight into touch

Montpellier try to play from deep but go for one offload to many and the ball is picked up by Jourdain in a dangerous position. Ranger illegally slows the ball down at the ruck and is lucky to avoid being sent to the bin

First scrum of this half but the same result as in the last half, penalty Brive

Galthie has changed both his half backs already in the hope of changing this game in his favour

Brive have struggled at the lineout and this time the throw from Acquier doesnt go straight

Brive have won back the ball from the kickoff

Half time and Brive are leading 13-0. It is a deserved lead for the away side who have been clinical with the ball, which they showed when Masilevu scored on their first possession. Boos rang out when the whistle went and rightly so as Montpellier have not shown up at all here tonight. A big second half is needed from the home side to turn this around

Radikedeki counters well and when he is eventually brought down Mowen goes off his feet at the ruck and is sent to the bin
