Racing's momentum stopped in heartbreaking loss

Racing 92's 3 game win streak came to an end in an 81 minute thriller at Castres.

They squandered a 10 point lead in the 2nd half through their own errors and let Castres back into the match and score the winning try with the clock in the red at the end of the game.

Vinaya Habosi started at Centre and after 5 penalty kicks between the 2 sides, he scored the first try of the match 8 minutes into the 2nd half. On the fly he regathered the ball and had too much speed for the fullback and cover defence, scoring a great solo try.

Hughes in again as Racing notch first win

After a disappointing loss to start their season, Racing bounced back with a big win and a big scalp too, taking down defending champions Bordeaux 44-32 despite receiving 2 red cards and a yellow throughout the match.

Nathan Hughes started at Number 8 again and like his debut, was impressive and heavily involved.

He scored yet another 5 pointer off the back of a rolling maul near the Bordeaux line.

Also impressive early was Wame Naituvi who made 2 linebreaks, a try assist and the most metres for his side with 65 despite his night ending after 20 minutes. He was replaced by Josua Tuisova who played the remainder of the game.

Lekima Tagitagivalu came off the bench in the 2nd half while Vinaya Habosi who was also solid started at Centre but moved to the wing when Tuisova entered.
