While Racing 92 won 20-33 at the Jean Bouin stadium, the first Top 14 barrage took another turn from the first minutes when Marcos Kremer was the author of an illegal clearing on Finn Russell. The third Parisian line was excluded for this gesture in the fifth minute. If the players of Gonzalo Quesada took time to make their mark at 14 against 15, Juan Imhoff then Wenceslas Lauret allowed the Parisians to lead 17-3 fairly quickly. If the Stadistes came back up before half-time, the indiscipline of the Stade Français cost dearly with three penalties in the second half.
