Full-time 25-19 Toulon. The difference between the two sides was ultimately the accuracy of their kickers boot's, Giteau having an excellent day while James' kicking was below par. Both sides were quite evenly matched in most facets of the game where both showed their intent with a good showing by their backlines as their attacking prowess was displayed. A high penalty count kept the the scoreboard ticking over, while each scrum continued to tear the surface of the pitch apart, causing problems for both packs at scrum time. Both sides can go into next weekend Heineken cup opening round with confidence. Thanks for following with Ultimate Rugby and have a great weekend !

Toulon are given a penalty and opt to kick to the corner as Juan Smith enters the field

Clermont have possession but look unsure as they run, playing off the cuff rugby, until ball is turned over and Toulon go straight with some real direction and conviction to the visitors 22
