Montpellier wins against Exeter and goes to the round of 16

CHAMPIONS CUP 2021-2022 – Solid and enthusiastic, Montpellier Rugby dominated the Exeter Chiefs this Sunday (37-26). Bonus offensive point as a bonus, the MHR file in the round of 16 of the European Cup.

They did it ! Swept away by Leinster last week (89-7), the Héraultais managed to reach the round of 16 of the Champions Cup. For that, they had to pull out all the stops to win against Exeter (37-26), bonus offensive bonus. Cold picked by Sam Simmonds (4′), the MHR then showed great self-sacrifice. Leading at the break after practice Bouthier, Willemse and Serfontein (24-19), the Montpellier residents saw the Chiefs pass in front after 50 minutes of play, thanks to the triple of Sam Simmonds (24-26, 50′). Finally, a test of Reinach (69′), and two penalties allowed the Cists to win (37-26). Philippe Saint-André’s men therefore join the 8th finals of the competition.
