In a breathtaking end to the match, the UBB had three penalties to go back in front but Matthieu Jalibert, twice, and Maxime Lucu, from very far after the expulsion of Alban Placines (77), missed the target which would have is the delight of a sold-out Chaban.
Too bad for the club of Laurent Marti, who had the game in hand at the break (22-9) but who let the Stadistes come back in an express way in four minutes with two tries from Mathis Lebel lonely on his right wing (56) and Romain Ntamack on an individual feat in the middle of badly sharp secateurs (60).
