Montauban vs Pau head to head

Section Paloise delivered an impressive performance, defeating US Montauban 53-17 at Stade Sapiac. The away team opened the scoring with a try from Rey, quickly followed by a response from Wilkins for Montauban. Desperes converted Rey's try and contributed significantly with his kicking throughout the match. Arfeuil and Brau-Boirie were standout players for Paloise, both scoring tries and maintaining pressure on the home side. Montauban showed resilience, with Vici and Delhommel scoring late tries to add some respectability to the scoreline. Despite a spirited effort, Montauban struggled against the relentless attack of Paloise, who added several tries in quick succession. The win solidified Paloise's standing in the Top 14, while Montauban faced a tough defeat at home.
