USAP fell at home against opportunistic Brivistes (6-17).
Earlier this Saturday afternoon, La Rochelle had won a deserved victory on the lawn of Lyon (21-23).

Bayonne overthrows and traps Racing 92
Racing 92, which led by ten points at the break, finally cracked on the ground of promoted Bayonne, euphoric, to bow (31-25), Saturday on the occasion of the 2nd day of the Top 14. , who wore a flocked N°13 T-shirt in homage to Virimi Vakatawa, forced to end his career at the age of 30 by a progressive heart defect, only played one half, taking the lead at the break (18-8).
Not enough to leave with victory against the vigor of the Basques, who pocketed a first precious success in a Jean-Dauger stadium in turmoil, especially since the match coincided with the inauguration of the last stand that was missing from this historic lair.

L'Aviron qui chante is logical in view of the second act delivered by the men of Grégory Patat.
Unhappy in the first period, with two tries conceded in six minutes by Benmegal after an 80-meter rise from the outside (34) and Russell, served in a bell by Le Garrec who left flush with his scrum (40), they knew knock down visitors.
Their melee took precedence over the opposing pack, and their incisive starters brought the necessary surplus to inflict a 23-0 in 25 minutes on the Racingmen.

Ceyte, already decisive on Bosch's first quick try of the game (6) by coffing Spring, used all his power to reward his scrum (54).
And behind, the aggressive defense of three-quarters pushed Benmegal, with an uncertain withdrawal, to fault.
Lopez, already in his garden, adjusted a cross with the perfect foot for Jacquelain who scored in turn (57).
Racing, with a clean Woki in the line-up, tried to get their heads out of the water but came up against homegrown determination in the rucks and Germain's precision penalizing visitor fouls.
For the honor, Gibert concluded in the last minute in a corner a touch quickly played 80 meters away but it was insufficient to win the defensive bonus which would surely have satisfied Laurent Travers.
Castres kicks off its season against Stade Français
Impressive in the first half before giving up, Castres, beaten last week, launched its season for good on Saturday with a home success against Stade Français (30-20) on the occasion of the 2nd day of the Top 14. We will still have to count on them.
Defeated in the last minutes by Racing 92 on the opening day (25-19), the Castres corrected the situation against the other club in the Paris region.
The unfortunate finalists of the last exercise had already folded the debates at half-time (30-10) to bring their unbeaten series to 22 matches at the Pierre-Fabre stadium, still impregnable.
Winners of Clermont last weekend at Jean-Bouin (24-18), the Parisians never really seemed able to win this time, even when the CO was content to manage in the second act.
The Tarn club made the thunder speak in the first, with fine movements concluded in turn by the back Geoffrey Palis and the Fijian three-quarters Adrea Cocagi and Vilimoni Botitu, particularly stirring with their compatriot Filipo Nakosi.
No doubt upset, Stade Français attacked the second half with better intentions, rewarded with a try against winger Sefanaia Naivalu.
The second of his team after the one scored in the first half by the right pillar Nemo Roelofse.
Increasingly dangerous, the Parisian club has long roamed around the opposing in-goal without being able to make a difference against Castres who also lacked realism, like an unsuccessful breakthrough by international hooker Gaëtan Barlot.
The Tarnais remain undefeated at Pierre-Fabre.
