Clermont couldn’t keep their momentum of back-to-back wins going, losing to Lyon 43-24.

Tevita Ratuva was one of their best on the afternoon, making inroads into the defence with strong carries, offloading and also a strong defensive performance.

A total of 10 runs for 27 metres, 2 offloads, 2 defenders beaten and 12 tackles – 1 shy of the match high 13.

After 2 weeks on the road, Clermont return home to prepare for Stade Francais next up.

A week after posting 63 points on Castres, Clermont toughed out a 9-7 win over Montpellier. Their two victories couldn’t be more contrasting!

Tevita Ratuva made his return from injury, playing his first match since his debut in round 2. He started at Lock was superb for the home team. His best highlights of the night were his linebreak off a Pita Gus Sowakula offload and his charge-down which pinned Montpellier in their in-goal.
