The home team started strong, with Desperes kicking early penalties and Grandidier scoring a try shortly after. Newcastle's Fletcher responded with two tries, showcasing his ability to break through defenses. However, the turning point came when Paloise's Maximin and Delhommel both crossed the line, extending their lead.
