The first period was particularly wild. Five tries for the Toulouse residents, two for the Londoners, tense, heated action on all sides. The French champions got off to a strong start with a 4th minute Lebel try, but were also tested by the eye-catching Queens who crossed the Toulouse goal line in the 14th minute (Smith) and in the 24th minute. (Evans).

It was only in the second half of the first period that the Toulouse residents broke free. Three tries in ten minutes! Thibaut Flament opens this ball (27) before Antoine Dupont gets to his feet. Twice the Haut-Pyrénées, full of opportunism, broke the British defenses at the end of the joint operations.

– But why didn’t they jump?! Yes, that’s it! Make up for it by scoring an 80m attempt…
