Montpellier fullback, Anthony Bouthier, injured his right elbow on Sunday during the defeat (19-16) at home against Racing 92, for the 4th day of the Top 14.
The French international (31 years old, 8 caps) missed the first three matches of the season due to a calf injury. The vice-captain of Montpellier will undergo examinations at the start of the week to find out the severity of his injury.
Montpellier, which has only one success in 4 days, occupies 12th place in the championship. “I’m not happy with the performance. We are frustrated. We had no luck with the ball approaching the line in the first half. Our defense was not good on the last two tries conceded. We had the possibility of winning, we give the match to Racing (…) We must all stay together. We need to raise our heads, now we’re going to have a test of character from all the guys. It’s only the fourth game. It’s not the 25th day. There’s still time, but I’d like more of a good game than that», Regretted Richard Cockerill, the sports manager of the MHR.
