14 Dec 2024

Stage: Pool 3 Round 2

Stade de la Rabine

RC Vannes secured a decisive 43-19 victory over Gloucester Rugby at Stade de la Rabine. Enzo Benmegal and Michael Ruru each scored two tries, with Ruru also providing a strong playmaking performance from scrum half. Maxime Lafage was instrumental, converting all but one of Vannes' tries and adding a penalty for good measure. Gloucester managed to get on the scoreboard through Chris Harris and a brace from Jake Morris, but they struggled to keep pace with Vannes' relentless attack. The home side's dominance was evident, particularly with their forwards gaining significant ground. A yellow card for Vannes' Beziat didn't slow their momentum, as they continued to score. Gloucester's indiscipline, including a yellow card for Clarke, compounded their difficulties as Vannes capitalized on every opportunity.
