Bordeaux take Top 14 lead as Toulon win overshadowed by Ollivon injury

Earlier Toulon continued their impressive home form with a 36-24 victory over Racing92 to consolidate third spot but lost skipper Charles Ollivon to an early injury. A week after losing top spot to Toulouse, Bordeaux regained pole position while awaiting the French champions' trip to La Rochelle. Yannick Bru's players took time to find their feet at Stade Français, with a slim 13-12 lead at half-time, but in a chilly capital managed to raise the temperature after the break with Louis Bielle-Biarrey touching down twice.
