In a tightly contested match, Stade Rochelais narrowly defeated RC Toulon 21-20 at Stade Mayol. The visitors struck first with a penalty from Hastoy, but Toulon quickly responded with tries from Garcia and Ferte. After Nowell's try put Rochelais ahead, Toulon regained the lead by halftime with a penalty from Jaminet. Waqanisaravi's try early in the second half gave Stade Rochelais a slight edge, which they maintained despite a late try from Serin for Toulon. Hastoy's penalties ultimately secured the victory for Rochelais. Notably, Levani Botia's yellow card early in the game was a setback for Stade Rochelais. This win continued the competitive rivalry between the two teams.
