Fiji Water Flying Fijians centre Vilimoni Botitu was a standout, scoring two tries for Castres, while fellow Fijian Vuate Karawalevu also crossed the line to help secure the home win.

Despite a strong showing from Jiuta Wainiqolo,nicknamed the “Fijian Ferrari” who scored two impressive tries for Lyon, his side was unable to match Castres’ all-round brilliance.
