The Stadistes went it alone against Ernest-Wallon at the end of the second day of the Top 14. But they lost Romain Ntamack to injury.
2/2 for Stade Toulousain. Opposed to RC Toulon at the end of the 2nd day of Top 14, the Stadistes easily won at Stade Ernest-Wallon (28-8), carried by an excellent Antoine Dupont. First at home for Stade Toulousain, and first improved victory (28-8)! The Rouge et Noir delivered a very good performance to Ernest Wallon, carried by an excellent Antoine Dupont.
The French international was behind his team’s three tries in a head and shoulders dominated first half. Creator of the shift which resulted in Lebel’s corner try (18th), he then served on a Delibes plateau on the other side of the field for the second (21st). Finally, he carried out a great action before the half-hour mark, ball in hand then on foot, putting his team in the lead before sending Meafou into the in-goal (26th).

Ugo Mola’s men therefore returned to the locker room with a comfortable lead (20-3). More imprecise in the second act, they still ended up getting the offensive bonus on a try from Mauvaka following a maul (75th). Ramos dropped 9 points on foot but it remains anecdotal on the scoreboard.
Helpless Toulon
Completely missed out on their first half, overwhelmed in all areas of the game, the RCT never seemed able to win this match. Clumsy with the ball in hand and undisciplined in defense, Charles Ollivon’s teammates had their little highlight in the second half, materialized by a try from Luc (65th), but they did not have the weapons to do better. First defeat for the Franck Azéma – Pierre Mignoni duo.
Stade Toulousain takes the lead in the Top 14 at the end of this second day and joins Stade Rochelais. The last two European champions are the last undefeated teams after two days. The only shadow on the board, the injuries of Romain Ntamack and François Cros.
