Charna's Guts! Stade Francais are losing at HT.Suprising ()~:

What was that for?

The visitors continue to concede penalties with the second row Pape deservedly sent to the sin bin.

An excellent response by the Italians with some great counter attacking by the outhalf Browne leads to Stade conceding the penalty and 3 points.

A red card! A straight red for the Italian number 8 for no clear reason by referee. A great start by the home side may have just been undermined by a moment of madness by Bemini.

Neither team can break the deadlock with both squandering some good opportunities in open play.

Some good play by the visitors leads to a scrum on the opponents 5 meter line. However some sloppy play by the backline allow the home side escape without conceding.

A strong start by the home side forces the visitors to concede a couple of cheap penalties in the opening minutes. However the outhalf Browne fails to take full advantage with two missed kicks.

Good afternoon and welcome to todays Ultimate Rugby's coverage between Stade Francais and Cavalieri Prato. The french start todays proceedings as strong favourites however the Italians will be looking to make amends to last weeks crushing defeat.
