22:38 – 67′ – Hastoy converts the penalty (31-26)
Before giving up his place to Reus, Hastoy reduces the gap to 5 points by converting a penalty for La Rochelle (31-26)
22:37 – 65′ – The Varois penalized on the ground
Hastoy infiltrates the axis but is caught 10 meters away. The RCT is still penalized on the ground
22:33 – 62 – Hastoy finds the touch
Very good 50-22 found by Hastoy while Domon misses the interception. Great opportunity for the Maritimes to reduce the score.
22:30 – 59′ – Isa widens the gap (31-23)
Nothing is going well for the Rochelais. They are still transfixed by the power of the Varois, like Facundo Isa who scores the try in force. Serin transforms the test without difficulty
22:28 – 57′ – Bosmorin replaced
Author of a nice try at the start of the match, Hoani Bosmorin is replaced by Gabin Garault
22:26 – 56′ – The task becomes more complicated for the Maritimes
Yellow card for Sutidze with an entry on the ruck side. The Rochelais find themselves at fourteen for ten minutes
22:23 – 55′ – Serin hits the ground running
Launched on the left side, Serin skids just in front of his opponent Nowell and very quickly finds himself on the ground.
22:19 – 51 – Toulon goes back in front (24-23)
On a passing game between Garbisi and Gabin Villère, the RCT gained several meters before Gaël Drean concluded the action with a try, his 11th in Top 14 this season. Serin transforms the try. 24-23. The match changed in a few minutes
22:17 – Change to the Maritimes side
The pillar Sclavi and the second row Dilane returned to the La Rochelle side in place of Kuntelia and Botia
22:14 – 48′ – Abadie gives hope to the RCT (17-23)
On a good series of Pick and Gos, the Varois managed to reduce the score thanks to Esteban Abadie, who benefited from a pass from Serin to pivot on himself and flatten the leather in the opponent’s goal. Serin transforms the try. 17-23
22:13 – 46′ – the Varois too individualistic
The Toulonnais have difficulty playing together, especially in spontaneous scrums. The penaltouches are not well done either
22:10 – 43′ – Hastoy widens the gap (23-10)
We left on the same basis in this second period with another penalty transformed by Antoine Hastoy. 23-10 for La Rochelle
21:52 – 40+2′ – La Rochelle in front at the break
Halftime at Mayol, Stade Rochelais logically leads 20-10 against the RCT which plays too individually. Small surprise but the match remains open
21:50 – 39′ – Leupolu makes a mistake
15 meters from the goal, Kaddouri makes a long jump at Leopulu, but the young Rochelais commits a forward
