The day after the first semi-final of the Top 14 won by Castres (24-18) against Toulouse, it was time for the second semi-final.
Castres will know their opponent for the final this Saturday at the end of this second meeting between Montpellier and Bordeaux-Bègles (9:05 p.m.). Unlike the day before, in a match that confronted two clubs accustomed to titles, this meeting brings face to face two teams still in search of their first Brennus shield.
The stakes are indeed high between the second of the regular season, the MHR, which lost its place of first in the Top 14 during the last day by falling in Clermont (20-15), and the third, the UBB , forced to go through a play-off after the snub suffered in Perpignan (22-15).
