Heroic in the last moments of the match, the Toulonnais did not give in despite a last breakthrough from Vincent Rattez and won (25-21) against Montpellier.
The Var have benefited from the address of Louis Carbonel, author of 19 of the 25 points of the premises, who will have found the way to the Montpellier in-goal once through the young Gervais Cordin from the 13th minute.
Second victory in as many meetings at Mayol for the men of Patrice Collazo, who are in sixth place with 9 points taken in four matches.
Thus, the RCT is preparing in the best possible way its European meeting against Bristol on Friday in the final of the European Challenge.
Opposite, the Héraultais tried everything at the end of the match but returned with a third defeat in as many games despite the tests of South African Cobus Reinach and Vincent Rattez in the second half.
Tests which offer a meager consolation prize to the MHR, namely the defensive bonus point, allowing Guilhem Guirado's partners to bring their total of points to 2, one more than Agen at the bottom of the ranking.
