POOL 5 EUROPEAN RUGBY MATCH DAY 6

POOL 5
ULSTER 22-26 BORDEUX
HICKEY BOOT WINS POINTLESS GAME
Bordeaux led 20-15 at half-time with Yann Lesgourgues and Marco Tauleigne tries while Andrew Trimble and Franco van der Merwe went over for Ulster.
Darren Cave's converted try put Ulster ahead before two Simon Hickey penalties clinched victory for the visitors.

Ulster cameto round 5 with hope of reaching the quarters but I would think that this was a thing more of luck first thy lost to the scarlets in what was a play off then Exeter and finally Bordeux I think that they need to fix a lot in the next 3 weeks
CLERMOUNT 48-26 EXETER
YATO SCORES IN 7 TRY PREFORMANCE FOR CLERMOUNT
The Chiefs came into the game needing a bonus point-win to have any chance of a place in the quarter-finals.
But they were left facing an uphill task when they conceded a try after only three minutes as Benjamin Kayser crashed over
Noa Nakaitaci added to Kayser's early effort and Morgan Parra converted both and scored a penalty to leave the home side in control after just 23 minutes.
Worse was to come for Exeter when first Olly Woodburn received a yellow card and conceded a penalty try while trying to stop a Clermont break and then Olly Devoto followed him to the sin-bin.
The home side took advantage of the extra numbers with Wesley Fofana and former European player of the year Nick Abendanon both crossing for tries.
However, France centre Fofana had to be replaced before half-time and was later diagnosed with a ruptured Achilles tendon that will rule him out of the Six Nations.
James Short put the Chiefs on the board at the start of the second half but Clermont responded quickly with tries from Peceli Yato and Alex Lapandry.
Exeter did however find some more momentum as the second half progressed, with Devoto, Woodburn and Michele Campagnaro giving a more respectable look to the score.

Clermount look on fire at the moment and look to be the one team that right now I would not want to play or beat and I would think that the only team that could beat them would come from France . I think they are ready for anyone
